Cheating Landlords Finally Fined
For the first time, Berlin's Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg district has fined a landlord for charging exploitative rent—190% above the legal limit set by the local rental index, or Mietspiegel, which applies in areas with particularly strained housing markets. The tenant now has the opportunity to sue for a refund of €22,264.08 in overpaid rent. Berlin is set to become significantly greener over the next 15 years, with a plan to plant hundreds of thousands of new trees across the city. This ambitious initiative stems from a draft law jointly developed by the CDU and SPD coalition parties in collaboration with the citizens' initiative BaumEntscheid. Nettelbeckplatz in Berlin-Mitte has officially been renamed Martha-Ndumbe-Platz, honoring a Berlin-born woman of Cameroonian and German descent who was deported to Ravensbrück concentration camp in 1944 and died there in early 1945. The renaming replaces Joachim Nettelbeck, a former slave ship officer and colonial advocate. Berlin's population is growing faster than anticipated, with projections now suggesting the city could surpass four million residents by 2036. While Berlin has seen steady growth in recent decades, it still hasn't reached its historical peak of around 4.4 million, recorded just before or during World War II. Interestingly, the city has the lowest birth rate in Germany, meaning this growth is driven almost entirely by immigration. By 2040, an estimated 109,000 new residents are expected to arrive, reshaping the city's demographic landscape.

Hacked Bikes, Cold Pools & Gay Animals - Live at Doxumentale Film Festival
Berlin is losing its publicly-funded Nextbike system. What does it say about the city's deflating civic status? Also we meet the artistic director of the Doxumentale film festival to hear why they've added an X to their name. And the founder of Give Something Back to Berlin will tell us about how beauty parlours are places of feminist empowerment. Nextbike has lost its €1.5M annual public funding to run a discounted shared bicycle system across Berlin. The CDU-led city-state government says it is too broke to fund the scheme, which ran since 2017, and reached 4 million journeys last year. Joel explains what's behind its demise. Days before the start of Berlin's Dokumentale documentary and non-fiction festival, the organizers received a legal threat over their name. Instead of fighting, they've changed their name to DoXumentale. We meet the festival's artistic director Anna Ramskloger-Witt, who explains why the new name is better. She tells us about program, including a nature film about gay animals, a profile of a Berlin undertaker and more. DoXumentale runs until June 28. Find a screening or watch online at https://www.dokumentale.de/ What goes on behind the doors of beauty salons? NGO founder Annamaria Olsson decided to take a microphone to meet women in these safe spaces, and found a world of womens' empowerment. Beauty salons give women jobs and help them overcome domestic violence. Annamaria has travelled to Morocco, Georgia, Bosnia and Kosovo to record audio for her project. The result is "Stories from the Beauty Parlor". Listen now here: https://www.beautyparlorstories.org/ Radio Spaetkauf co-founder Joel Dullroy is briefly back in Berlin, after one of his trips around the world filming mini-documentaries.
