    There are always things that are completely normal in one place in the world and are not only unknown everywhere else, but seem downright abstruse. Today we have just such a thing in our programme: Catch Fétiche brings together the worlds of catching and voodoo. The result is a unique spectacle that has even matured into a national sport in the Republic of Congo. Let's go to Africa and to the ring. We have tickets for the front row. 
    Have fun, Jan and Cris
