"Satirische Tagesschau" (.mp3, 8.8MB; Swiss Broadcasting, 1986). The TV news team just can't get its act together. Bad stuff ("ein Versehen") happens, and under stress they keep falling out of standard German and back into Swiss dialect.

Two Swedes Speaking German (.mp3, 900KB). One thinks his German is bad, one thinks his is good; both are wrong. Obviously a skit, but the source is unknown.

The Führer's Face - Audio version. Spike Jones and the City Slickers mock Hitler in a WWII Propaganda film (audio only, one minute or so, .mp3, 600KB)

The Führer's Face - video version (.mov, 15MB), with an introduction by Spike and comments afterward by a band member and by Spike's son. The song was originally performed in a Disney war-propaganda movie, where it was sung by Donald Duck as he worked on the production line in a defense plant. Allied soldiers, when taken prisoner by the Germans, were known to sing it to taunt their captors.
