Description
Wolfgang Heim, radio journalist and long-time host of Leute, meets journalist and Middle East conflict expert Sophie von der Tann. Sophie von der Tann started her ARD job in Tel Aviv in August 2021 and became the most-watched TV correspondent in Germany after October 7, 2023. This time was a tremendous challenge both professionally and personally. On one hand: hatred, hostility, insults. On the other hand: awards such as the Hanns-Joachim-Friedrichs-Preis 2025. A bullet-point biography of Sophie von der Tann: Abitur in Fulda. Studies in Munich, Oxford, London, and New York. Master's in International History. Traineeship at BR. Reporter in the capital studio. Podcaster. Then Israel, Gaza, and the dramatic challenges of a time when war prevails and journalistic reporting must take place under the most difficult conditions. A situation where the facts are unclear and the battle for interpretative dominance is fought fiercely. And where there is no single truth. Wolfgang Heim was an editor and host at SWR in Stuttgart until summer 2022. He has appeared in over 3,000 Leute broadcasts over more than 30 years. Hosted many years of Aktuell programs, met completely unprepared guests on the podcast "Erzähl mir was Neues," with whom he recorded long conversations on the spot. Since 2022, he has been hosting the Sunday edition of the Micky Beisenherz podcast "Apokalypse und Filterkaffee." Available in the free subscription.
