About this listen

In this week's episode we talk about the latest from the trial of Sweden’s former national security chief, Henrik Landerholm, over the negligent handling of classified documents.

We also discuss the language used to describe people who weren’t born in Sweden. Are we immigrants, foreigners, expats or something else entirely?

Host Paul O'Mahony is joined this week by regular panelists Richard Orange and James Savage. Here are links to some of the topics discussed in the episode:


Mushrooms
  • How to pick mushrooms in Sweden like you've been doing it all your life


Cricket
  • Cricket in Sweden: how can an immigrant-powered sport attract new players?


Kiruna
  • Historic Swedish church arrives at new home
