Andy Borg: Funny traffic sin ensures hilarity in Schlager fun!

In Andy Borg's wine bar, known for its entertaining evenings, viewers experienced a very special edition of “Schlager-Fuß” on July 5, 2025. The show, which has been broadcast on Mondays at 8:15 p.m. on SWR television since its first broadcast in 2018, always keeps the audience in suspense with musical guests and bizarre stories. Borg is not only a host, but also a talented singer himself who presents songs that are close to his heart and pay homage to great entertainers such as Peter Alexander and Udo Jürgens in every show. Over the years, the show has achieved high ratings and gained great popularity among viewers, which Borg sees as an “encore” for his loyal fan base if they show interest and enjoy it, as andy-borg.de reports.

One of the most amusing moments of the most recent broadcast occurred during a conversation with 17-year-old newcomer Ludivine Strasser, who had come to Rastatt from Alsace. Strasser, who has been attending a music school in her hometown for four years, warmly thanked her teacher. Andy Borg, who was also in Rastatt, took advantage of this opportunity and smiled about an “involuntary souvenir” – a speed camera photo that caused laughter in the audience. His self-deprecating anecdote was well received, and the evening's relaxation was accompanied by laughter, making the evening an unforgettable experience [merkur.de].

From mechanics to music

For those who don't know: Andy Borg was born as Adolf Andreas Meyer on November 2nd, 1960 in Vienna and completed training as a mechanic before his career as a presenter and pop singer. His musical talent was discovered in 1982 when he appeared on the ORF show “The Big Chance” and celebrated his breakthrough with the hit “Adios Amor”. Since then he has established himself as one of the most famous pop artists and has also celebrated great success as a presenter. Since 1996 he has hosted the “Pop Parade of Folk Music” and in 2006 he took over the moderation of the “Musikantenstadl”, which paved the way for his reputation as Entertainer of the Year in 2016. His current engagements show that Borg has not lost any of his popularity, even though he now lives in Thyrnau, Passau district, where he lives with his wife Birgit and his children Jasmin and Patrick. Another reason why Borg remains highly popular: his humble nature and ability to connect with his audience.

His passion for music has accompanied him throughout his life. With a good knack for soulful melodies and lyrics, he sinks into the hearts of fans while remaining true to the folk music. This also includes awards such as the Golden Tuning Fork and several Smago! Awards that mark his path in pop music. In a world that is often too fast-paced, his songs bring people together and create unforgettable moments.

In summary, it can be said that Andy Borg is not just a name in the pop scene, but an institution. His return to the entertainment world is causing a stir and joy, not least because of his refreshing nature and the music that connects the generations, which will also be shown in the next edition of “Schlager-Spaß”.
