Vince Ebert - Vince of Change

Good news still exists: a member of the Letzte Generation movement recently had a child. The Berlin Senate passed a resolution requiring all new streets to be named after women. Dead ends included. A new study by the Ministry of Economic Affairs shows that solar parks can supply enough electricity at night too - as long as you illuminate the panels with floodlights. Technically feasible today. Unfortunately, the big corporations are blocking it.

Science cabaret artist and physicist Vince Ebert takes stock: have we become more rational, more level-headed, or even smarter in recent years? Spoiler: no. Only 18% of the population wear a bicycle helmet, but 91% use a protective case for their phone.

When reality increasingly becomes satire, when government statements are practically indistinguishable from articles in the satirical Postillon - how is a satirist supposed to top that?

Vince Ebert refuses to give up. On the outside he may look like an old white man. But that's just a social construct. In "Vince of Change" he identifies as a 32-year-old tanned surf instructor from California, reaching entirely new audiences. His mission concerns all of us: in an era that threatens to drown ever deeper in feelings, sensitivities and irrationality, he stubbornly holds up the banner of reason. And besides, he needs the money.
