#5 of the spoken word reading show in the Brotfabrik
Max Golenz and Diego Hagen are not only German-speaking vice-team champions in the poetry slam, humble teachers, aspiring rappers, comedians and word acrobats, but also operators of Germany's most educational reading show and the only two people who unironically wear Santa hats and sing "All I Feel free to sing along to “Want for Christmas Is You”.
