On April 29, 2025, we kicked off our new event series final_final_version-2. More than 20 people from the audio and media world followed our invitation: podcasters, journalists, producers, public broadcasters, clients, former clients, and friends.
final_final_version-2 is, first and foremost, a networking event – combined with thought-provoking input for podcast creators and anyone interested in the medium.
For our very first edition, we were thrilled to welcome Maria Lorenz-Bokelberg – founder of Pool Artists and producer of hit shows like ZEIT Verbrechen, Alles gesagt?, and Gästeliste Geisterbahn. In conversation with Micha and Sven, we explored the fundamental questions that mark the beginning of any podcast project: Do I even need a podcast? Why do people listen to podcasts? What makes a good podcast? Maria shared her experiences, convictions, and key takeaways with us.
Why did we create this event? In many ways, we all spend too much time in front of screens, and interactions with clients and partners often happen virtually. That’s why we felt the need to bring people from the industry together in person – in a relaxed, open atmosphere. Because real-life encounters often spark new ideas, inspiration, and projects that wouldn’t emerge otherwise. We’re happy that the concept worked and that our studio seems to be a great space for this kind of exchange.
To be continued: The next edition will take place on May 27, 2025, and will focus on the topic of True Crime.
