25 SEP. 2023 · It’s the las- er.. first episode of the year! This episode is all about music and includes a tiny bit of time-travelling confusion. First, hosts Sophia and Faye give us the latest news on events from last as well as this school year – and to keep you on your toes, they use both old and new class names. We then hear lots of last year’s student spotlights about music tastes and musical experience, and we even get to hear some musical pieces and some brand-new jingles from this year’s students. To switch things around, Sophia hands Abigail and Muskaan’s excellent Soundbites questions over to a baffled Faye, who later gets her revenge by quizzing Sophia about her word of the month. After exchanging various wisdoms, our hosts finish the podcast with an interview with music teacher and professional musician Vera Otasek.

In the midst of summer heat and a stressful week, Annie and Faye meet for the last time - so they decide to switch things up a bit: we’re in a different room*, Faye joins the interview, Ines gets her own microphone and uses it, Annie knows exactly what is expected of her and the interview guest, Maria Hitzginger, answers questions without answering them.
Get ready for some school news, an interview about the Matura, colourful soundbites and a word of the month that will make your life easier. One thing is clear: when these four people meet, hilarity ensues.
