This week on The English Show, we’re still buzzing from Fasnacht, and to keep the buzz going, we’re talking bees. In the new book Bee Wise, lead author Philip Atkinson combines his work as a business coach and beekeeper to offer insights into leadership learned from the beehive.
Kateryna Debkaliuk from Galerie Sechs joined us to talk about the upcoming art exhibition «Awakening – A Celebration of Renewal». Just in time for Fasnacht and the start of spring, the photo exhibit focuses on the theme of renewal, whether that's in nature, in spirit, in your personal life, or in culture at large.
This time on the Gadget Guru, Ian Ellery takes a look at a few new devices and the latest tech news. One of the most sought-after gadgets of the last few years isn’t a wearable, a screen, or a computer. It’s the air fryer. The air fryer industry is expected to be worth $1.26 billion in 2025. If you’ve been thinking of getting one, the variety can be dizzying. We’ll hear a review of a new model.
Basel Fasnacht is around the corner! The carnival runs from Monday March 10th through Wednesday the 12th. Fasnacht starts with the Morgestraich at 4 am on Monday morning. (Yes, 4 am!) Trains, trams and buses run all night, so you can get into town using public transport.

It's time again for Vogel Gryff! Don't let this be the year that you forget all about it until you hear cannon-firing on the Rhine or get stuck in a crowd on the Mittlere Brücke. Starting around 10:30 am, the Wilde Maa will raft down the river before joining the Vogel Gryff and the Leu, for an afternoon of dancing through Kleinbasel.
Happy New Year, everyone! We had loads of culture and concerts to talk about on this first show of 2025, with Basel starting the year off strong with the Museums Night on January 17. Be sure to check out the many museums open until 2 am in the tri-border region.
