14 - Tee Trinken (German alternative medicine discussion w/ Alice)

It's Tee trinken time! Hosts Michelle (@shhellgames) and Ted (@ted_knudsen) are joined by producer Isaac (@wuermann) and friend of the pod Alice (@aalicerrose) to talk about Germans' bizarre obsession with alternative medicines such as homeopathy and anthroposophy. 

The articles referenced on this episode are: 

- Homeopathy doesn't work. So why do so many Germans believe in it? by Sami Emory in Bloomberg 

- Ginger root and meteorite dust: The Steiner 'Covid cures' offered in Germany by Philip Oltermann in the Guardian
