In 2005 we asked our radio listeners in Australia: "Where were you on the 8th of May, 1945?" The many letters, phone calls and interviews were broadcast all around the nation. To commemorate the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Germany, we repeated the historical recording in 2020 and saved it for posterity in nine podcasts. PC 4: Wilhelm Hirsch, Renate Grossmann, Ingrid Dünzel and Karl Haag.
