In EPISODE FOURTEEN, Krampus Goes to Hollywood we look at how Alpine folk culture has made it into global popular culture on the back of the Krampus.  In a lively conversation with local cultural historian Christoph Schwaiger we look at both the Krampus of yesteryear and the one you might catch “running” the streets today during St. Nicholas celebrations in central Europe.

This is a look at the many geographies produced by an anthropomorphic goat-man.  Trust me, it is exciting!  This Saturday, November 28th on Radio Fabrik.  As always, 7:06 PM Salzburg, Austria time and 1:06 PM New York.
