15 Minuten Nürnberg - Podcast for the 2026 Local Elections in Nuremberg
Making Politics Understandable for Target Groups - A Podcast Format for Nuremberg
For the local elections on 08.03.2026 in Nuremberg, we have developed the format together with our partner Radio Energy “15 minutes Nuremberg” was developed and produced. The aim was to create a compact, accessible podcast format that would reach young voters in particular and convey political content in a clear, understandable and contemporary way.
In our podcast studio in Nuremberg, we welcomed the three most promising mayoral candidates:
Dr. Nasser Ahmed (SPD), incumbent Marcus König (CSU) and Britta Walthelm (Bündnis 90/Die Grünen).
Video Podcast, Social Media Clips and Radio Playout for Maximum Reach
To ensure transparency and equal opportunities, all candidates were asked exactly the same questions and given 15 minutes each. The interviews took place on three consecutive days and were moderated by Flo Kerschner.
The format deliberately focuses on a clear structure, direct questions and comprehensible answers without long debates, but with a focus on content, personality and positions.
“15 Minuten Nürnberg” was produced as a video podcast and is available on Spotify. Content was also distributed by Radio Energy in the weeks leading up to the election.
Concept From a Single Source & Cooperation with Radio Energy
The format development, structure and content concept were developed by EMS Media Solutions. In close cooperation with Radio Energy, a cross-media project was created that combines journalistic clarity with modern podcast production.
With “15 Minuten Nürnberg”, we wanted to make a contribution to making political issues accessible at a low threshold and to give visibility to democratic processes. The format creates space for information, orientation and personal insights.
