The Quiz Champion reveals his simple way to increase general knowledge.

When was the Defenestration of Prague? How many bits make up a byte? What is the capital of Bolivia? Whether it's for work, aptitude tests, job interviews, or conversations at a party - having good general knowledge can help you stand out anywhere. Sebastian Klussmann, a popular quizzer from the successful ARD quiz show "Gefragt-Gejagt," reveals how one can easily expand their knowledge base. For example, exploring who a street name is named after during a city walk. Or grasping football geography. Or connecting topics with emotions. What is the allure of recallable knowledge - and is it even necessary in the age of Google & Co.? Pure factual knowledge is of less concern to more and more people. They carry the world's knowledge in their pocket, always searchable on Google. Nonetheless, Klussmann sees value in it. "We should not outsource our brain to the cloud," he believes. "Our democracy functions only if we have informed citizens who can put things into context, even those beyond their own professional field." With the fact in mind, one can draw better conclusions and ask more questions. "The more knowledge we have, the more differentiated our view of the world becomes." How can one acquire knowledge sustainably? This is one of the questions Sebastian Klussmann will address in his lecture.
