Danish Originals brings such interesting voices from Denmark to life, from creatives to entrepreneurs. Really well produced and the conversations feel natural and insightful. As an American listener, I find the directness and style so refreshing. It’s a perspective we don’t often get, and it makes every episode worth the listen.
Danish Originals is a colorful and insightful original podcast portrait gallery of personal journeys in dialogue between Denmark and the U.S.
A wonderful idea and production by AFSMK/SMK. The merging with a selection of an art piece from SMK’s, The Danish National Gallery’s collection is a fine touch, that adds yet another dimension to the individual podcast portraits while highlighting the museum’s collection and engaging in the cultural exchange that motivates AFSMK work.
