Applauded by his adoring fans, Gottschalk couldn't help but reminisce about his three and a half decades of hosting Saturday night shows. Known for setting the stage on fire with his electrifying charm, Gottschalk was the face behind iconic shows like "Wetten, dass..?" on ZDF and his current gig on RTL with Günther Jauch and Barbara Schöneberger.
