Moderator - Guido Cantz wants more movement in the new year
Entertainer Guido Cantz (52) is hoping for "more movement" in the new year 2024. "The German government needs to move, the national team should definitely move more at the European Championships than it did recently, and the railroads didn't move enough last year either," the presenter and comedian told the German Press Agency in Cologne.
The Catholic Church, which is generally not known for quick changes, could be an incentive for everyone: "But just before Christmas, the Pope surprised us and allowed the priestly blessing for homosexual couples. I would say: if even the Pope can jump over his shadow, then others should be able to give themselves a jolt all the more."

People across Germany, including entertainer Guido Cantz, are eager for change in the new year 2024. The German government, the national football team during the European Championship, and the railways all need to show more momentum, Cantz suggested in Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia. His remarks came in an interview with the German Press Agency.
Cantz also highlighted the Pope's recent decision as an inspiration for change. The Catholic Church, traditionally slow to adapt, allowed priestly blessings for homosexual couples before Christmas, demonstrating that even the most staunch institutions can evolve, according to Cantz.
On a lighter note, Cantz suggested that with such dramatic changes initiated at the highest levels, ordinary individuals should also feel emboldened to bring about positive changes in their own lives, much like jumping over a shadow.
Notably, Cantz's call for change resonates with the lifestyle expectations for 2023, which range from embracing breathlessness to indulging in cinnamon buns, as reported in "Breathless" to Cinnamon Buns."
The debate around change is not confined to entertainment or personal lifestyles. A unanimous decision recently made by German authorities suggests that wolf culls can be sped up, affecting wildlife conservation efforts in North Rhine-Westphalia and other parts of Europe.
As the countdown to New Year's Eve nears, people around the world contemplate celebratory traditions, including fireworks. In Germany, fireworks are still legal, but in some cities, restrictions apply, such as the quieter celebrations in Berlin.
