Attendees at Caren Miosga's Gathering: Who Attends on Sunday, September 21st?
Caren Miosga, a versatile and accomplished figure in the German media landscape, has made a significant career move. Since January 2024, she has been the face and moderator of a political talk format named after her. This new show will see her take over Anne Will's coveted Sunday evening slot.
Miosga's journey in the media industry began long ago. She grew up in the Lower Saxony town of Ilsede with two sisters and, in her youth, was part of a jazz dance ensemble. Her passion for the arts was evident even then.
Her career with the ARD, one of Germany's major public broadcasting organisations, has been a long and fruitful one. She began moderating the "Tagesthemen" in rotation with Ingo Zamperoni in July 2007. Miosga continued in this role until October 2023.
In addition to her work with the "Tagesthemen", Miosga has also been a part of a schlager band called Kurt and the Dillenberger. Her diverse interests and talents have been recognised with several awards, including a Golden Camera and a Grimme Prize.
On September 21, 2025, Miosga's show will focus on the divisive topic of Donald Trump's impact on American democracy. The guests for this discussion include Jens Spahn (Chairman of the CDU/CSU parliamentary group), Cathryn Clüver Ashbrook (political scientist and US expert), and Kerstin Kohlenberg (journalist and former US correspondent for DIE ZEIT).
Before moving to Hamburg to study history and Slavic studies, Miosga pursued various leisure interests in Lower Saxony. Her journey from jazz dance to political talk shows is a testament to her versatility and adaptability.
As Miosga takes on her new role, audiences can look forward to insightful discussions and thought-provoking debates on current political issues. Her unique perspective and wealth of experience promise to make her show a must-watch.
