Anja Rützel is an expert in the depths of pop culture and writes books and articles about it with profound depth.
In an interview with SPIEGEL editor Felix Bayer, she describes her "hysterical and irrational teenage love" for Take That.
Even at over 40, she's still a fan of Gary, Howard, Jason, Mark, and Robbie.
Shortly before completing her book about Take That, she had obtained accreditation for a press conference with the band.
But what do you ask musicians about whom you already know everything?
You can hear the answer to this difficult question on the podcast.
The British bards are not the only passion for the pop culture expert.
Rützel also has a passion for trash TV and regularly sits in front of the telly at night for SPIEGEL and researches "jungle camp", "Love Island" and "Bachelor" formats.
