U–Boat Hunters in the Atlantic (EN)
For six years, Britain and Nazi Germany fought a bitter battle for control of the Atlantic. Allied offensives against Hitler's armies on the continent were conditioned by their bases on the British Isles, which made air strikes and landings possible. But during 1939, the Germans began to ‘starve’ the British into surrender by cutting off vital supplies of food and equipment from the Allies.

Drowning a Dragonfly (EN)
Why do kids kill insects? It is a strange, disturbing fact that so many of us have, at some early point in our lives, plucked wings off butterflies, burned ants with magnifying glasses, or, in Sophus’s case, drowned a dragonfly. But where does semi-psychotic instinct comes from? In this episode, Sophus explains that our encounter with insects—whether as kids or as adults—is like a miniature moral lab, where we can experiment with our relation to the world.

A Study in Scarlet (EN)
What makes us us? Is there a feature that unites humans as a species while setting us apart from every other animal? Tool use, perhaps, or language or consciousness? This episode is about the hunt for a biological trait that would pull us all together and why that trait is so hard to find. Even if we do discover a single attribute that is hardwired into our collective brains—like our obsession with the color red—it will always dissolve into difference in the end.
