[REBROADCAST FROM NOVEMBER 9, 2018] Translator, music journalist, and former Berlin-based DJ, Tim Mohr, joins us to discuss his book, Burning Down the Haus: Punk Rock, Revolution, and the Fall of the Berlin Wall. This secret history of East German punk rock charts the genre's development from a musical and fashion style, to embodying the kind of freedom of expression that was denied in the GDR, and which ultimately lay the groundwork for the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
