Fantastiskt bra podd!
If you would like a well rounded and complete history of Sweden, this is a great podcast. I’ve listened to it over a couple years and the Hosts are engaging and well researched.
I have no connection to Sweden, but this podcast has become one of my favorites. It’s a delightfully unpretentious take on Swedish history. The hosts are relaxed and engaging: a Swede and her English partner bring both local flair and a healthy sense of historical perspective, which makes an approachable and engaging podcast!
This show’s co-hosts provide a fun and enjoyable overview of the history of Sweden, starting in the mists of prehistory and (eventually) going up to the modern era. They bring some levity even to rather grim periods of history, and always put things into the proper perspective. I also love their “Swedish Phrase of the Week” feature, as someone who is trying to learn some Swedish on Duolingo. Thanks Chris and Asa, I look forward to future episodes!
