James Howard Kunstler reports on his recent visit to Berlin, Germany...the one place where people know how to pronounce his name correctly. Thirteen years ago, James Howard Kunstler traveled to

Berlin, Germany to research a chapter for his third nonfiction book, The City

in Mind. On his recent trip, he discovered that the place has healed remarkably

over the past decade. Of course he had to go check in on the Führerbunker

which is now the site of one of Berlin's few surface parking lots. JHK notes

that history is a great prankster and therefore it's no surprise that while the

U.S. won the war against Germany, it's cities looked bombed out. While Germany

lost the war and its cities are beautiful, civilized places. Listeners  end the show with their reactions to
