Hans, the Berlin Boy Wonder – Show #102 (part 2), 31 March 2019

Music

Katie’s guest in the second hour is cabaret artist and international superstar Hans, who is in town for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Hilarious Hans makes Katie howl with laughter as he talks about his MICF show, his close connection with Adelaide, his friend Bob Downe, his appearances on US television last year on America’s Got Talent, the delightful Canadian comedian DeAnne Smith, how his mum (‘the Kris Jenner of cabaret’) makes all his costumes, and more. Punctuating the hilarity are songs by German artists, chosen by Katie in Hans’s honour. Here is the playlist:

• The Killing Season – Lucille
• Super Trouper – Max Raabe & Palast Orchester
• Satellite – Lena
• Like a Virgin – Texas Lightning
• Hey Ya! – The BossHoss
• Let’s Talk About Sex – Max Raabe & Palast Orchester

Visit Hans’s official website and follow him on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
