The latest climate report gives little hope for saving the Earth from global warming, but a renowned climate researcher still sees a small chance. Till gives a bit more info in this segment.

Big oil would prefer that consumers feel responsible for preventing global warming — specifically, through being “critical consumers.” But do we really know which groceries are good or bad for the environment?

Till wraps up his segment on climate change, emphasizing the importance of introducing new policies and regulations rather than so much responsibility being placed on each individual.

For this heute-show segment, Lutz van der Horst asks people whether they are already heating their homes despite the energy crisis. He then realizes that if he is going to judge them for wanting to stay warm, he will need to show that he can handle the cold.

The German government is really struggling to meet its climate goals. The satirical heute-show is at it again, ruthlessly exposing the problem. It's about time someone called those politicians out!

Helge strikes again, this time with his mad jazz piano playing and an ode to that culinary magnificence that is the cheese sandwich!

The practical side of learning a foreign language is on display in "Die polyglotte Katze" ("The Multilingual Cat"), a delightful and instructive little poem by German humorist and actor Heinz Erhardt. Viel Spaß beim Zuschauen! An animated film from SAEK Görlitz.

One eerie Halloween night, some unexpected visitors ring the doorbell and ask a peculiar question. A nightmare ensues as political correctness escalates to absurd proportions, ultimately questioning its own validity.

In traditional carnival style, the village idiot - portrayed by comedian Günter Dudenhöfer - misspeaks, twists his words all around and gets all mixed up. In the process, however, he leaves various social institutions and current trends in his wake handsomely lampooned. Viel Spaß dabei!

Here's more from comedian Günter Dudenhöfer. According to the program's host, he's the Palatine region's best "Büttenredner" [carnival] orator since Helmut Kohl. A "Bütt" is a barrel in which the orators usually stand while airing the latest "dirty laundry" of the powers that be. Viel Spaß!

Dirk tries to console and help a homeless man named Kutte whom he has known for 15 years. While on patrol, Ben and Katja come across a young woman buckled over in severe pain.

Katja and Ben are part of a rare and special moment that then goes terribly awry: a woman gives birth to a baby boy before disappearing suddenly.

The young mother cannot be found anywhere, and we learn that she is in high school and still lives at home. Kutte is found camped out in front of the precinct, despite Dirk having secured him a place to sleep at the night shelter.
