We want to send our best to all of you who supported us throughout these two seasons.

You shared your culture, your perspectives, and your music.
You came to the shows or listened to it.

In these uncertain hours, we do believe more than ever in the power of understanding, equality, and cultural dialogs across borders, countries, and oceans.

We will never stop to learn from you all.

Thank you !

Since it’s inception,¡Choúkrüt! has been proud to have guests from many countries. I, Kimberly, have personally traveled to 18 countries, but being part of this Podcast has taken me to places I’ve not been...yet! How many countries have you been to? Do you represent a country we haven’t been to yet?! We’d love to have you as a guest.

Welcome to Choúkrüt! Choúkrüt is a cultural podcast that can be accessed on Spotify and YouTube! The main objectives of this podcasts are to make the world a smaller place and to bring different cultures closer to all of us!

This podcast is mainly divided into 4 parts. The first part is usually a news section that deals with the latests news of France, Austria and of our guests' countries. Then we talk about cultural shock and cultural differences that we have encountered in the US and other countries as well. In this section we also have a weekly quiz where we ask our listeners questions about our nations and whoever gets the right answers first, is allowed to choose the song of the week for the next Choúkrüt episode.

The last section is called "words of the week" where our guests, Nico and I talk about a word that we like for a paritcular reason. Then we end every episode with the song of the week, which is always chosen by our guests or the quiz winners.
