"The Scandinavian beaches or the Danish or Swedish beaches are going to compete with the Greek beaches. I don't see this happening anytime soon. I'll pass that message on next time I see them. You did face some criticism though in the way that you handled the wildfires this year. What lessons do you think you learned? Look I mean climate the climate crisis is is here and it's here for good. We've always had wildfires in the Mediterranean but we had particularly intense wildfires this year and we also had unprecedented floods so it's very clear that we need to focus more on short -term adaptation and this is of course a case I'm also making to my European colleagues we spend trillions of euros on long -term mitigation and rightly so because we to want be leaders in the climate transition but we also need to support people when they lose their livelihoods or houses as a result of climate disasters today so we need to be much more effective in dealing with these disasters we've made good progress for example in Greece we have a 112 emergency number which we used very successfully to evacuate people and make sure that we save lots of lives this is something for example that was not present in Maui and when I look at the Maui disaster it's so painful because we had gone through similar disasters five years ago but we learned from them and we are using technology in a much smarter way today to make sure that at least we can save people's lives the climate crisis is cost going to more money in terms of either dealing with events or also where you get your energy where you're going to get reliable affordable energy from and where do you get it well first of all we get it from the wind and the sun we are affordable it is affordable reliable it is cheaper it is reliable because we have lots but of course it will not do the trick on itself but greece is one of the top 10 producers of renewable energy from the wind and the sun we have 12 gigawatts of installed wind and and some energy in greece and much more to come but of course in the short to medium term we will also need to rely on natural gas as as a transition fuel and there's a case to be made that greece is playing up a very important role in the european energy system because we are also an entry point for natural gas to serve not just the eastern europe but even uh... pumping gas up to ukraine so greece's role as a pillar of political and energy stability in the eastern military and has certainly been enhanced after russia's invasion into ukraine that was greece's prime minister kia kos mitotak is speaking to guy johnson and alex nimba just before midnight with four differences his virtual training program zoe hoker can practice welding anytime anywhere through the tulsa welding school as a result he's able to up level his skills and advances career as a welder learn more at meta dot com slash metaphors impact when you get your news from bloomberg you just get the story you get the story behind the story how your evie's battery may not be as green as it means why decreasing global birth rates could send countries scrambling to increase immigration you get context context changes how you see things how you change things because context changes everything go to bloomberg dot

SAS to soon start online booking for 2028 flights aboard electric-powered aircraft
"A Scandinavian airline will soon take bookings for the first commercial electric powered flights. Scandinavian airline systems or SAS are set to open online reservations for short distance flights aboard electric passenger planes. But travelers would have to wait 5 years to depart, where the commercial launch scheduled for 2028. Those booking can choose from 30 seats on each of three flights in Sweden, Norway and Denmark and will find out the exact departure date via email once scheduled. SAS is one of several airlines investing in the use of electric passenger planes for future commercial travel. I'm Mimi Montgomery.

Tucker Carlson Breaks His Silence
"Tucker speaks. That's right, Tucker Carlson released a video last evening. Two minute video to be precise. It is a two minute and 14 second video. Well over 50 million people have viewed at least part of the video over 17 million people have watched the video in its entirety. At first glance, it just seems to kind of be a normal video of Tucker talking about big themes, but there's a lot to it. So first we must get our facts right, Tucker Carlson is still in a contract dispute with Fox. Reports are showing that Fox is going to try to keep Tucker Carlson on the sidelines, still pay him his $20 million salary, but keep him out of the 2024 race. That's number one. Number two, it's likely that Tucker Carlson has a non disparagement clause with Fox, which means anything he says publicly, he can't bash Fox, he can't attack Fox, he can't go after the leadership of Fox. Now we know that he's under contract at least until next spring, but maybe into the spring of 2025. Fox made a calculated move. Because of Tucker's effective critique of neoliberalism because of the mounting lawsuits or because of whatever you want to believe, they believe that it's okay to take a 47% rating hit, which is what's happened so far. Keep Tucker on the sideline and pay him $20 million a year and try to rebuild the network. You know, there's a, there's a tall poppy syndrome that exists at Fox News, tall poppy syndrome is a Scandinavian mentality, which is that no person can be greater than the others. And if you actually know tall poppy syndrome, it comes from this idea that as soon as you try to get too high above the rest, they take you out. It's literally how it works in growing poppies, literally if one gets too high, doesn't not even allowed to exist in the state of nature.

Viking treasure reveals oldest reference to Norse god Odin
"Scandinavian scientists say they've identified the oldest known inscription, referencing the Norse God Odin on part of a bill disk unearthed in western Denmark in 2020. Lisbet Emer, a rheno with the national museum in Copenhagen, tells the AP the inscription represents the first solid evidence of being worshiped as early as the 5th century, at least 150 years earlier than the previous oldest known reference, which was on a brooch found

"Now, real quickly, it doesn't tell where the gold came from. But in the early Middle Ages, Scandinavia was the world capital, both Vikings and blood feuds, so it's not a stretch to think that some Vikings might have brought back some gold, buried it to keep it safe, and then everyone died because someone stole someone else's horse or something. The family was doing better now. Thanks to the boys unexpected income. The mother, though, reluctant, and still a little confused as to what exactly happened when the boy sold the butter, he said that someone named The Rock bobbit for an exorbitant sum, and then he left town immediately on a long journey. So the mom shouldn't try to follow up on it to see who it was. When she slaughtered the cow, the mom decided to let the boy handle it again. And sent him with the meat to sell. I see your men of culture and taste, the boy grinned. He had passed several rocks on his way into town, but didn't even look their way. They weren't good for the money. Instead, the sun found a group of party guys, playing in the street. All right, here's the rest of it, the boy said, throwing the meat on the ground. The party guys barked because they were dogs, and immediately ate the rest. I'll be back tomorrow to collect. And he was. The mom was confused because it sounded like he just gave the meat to a bunch of stray dogs, but she decided to let this play out. The dogs, like the stones, didn't have the cash on hand. They didn't carry wallets, and once again, they were dogs. The boy, who was scarred enough from the last time and didn't want to kill again, collar the nearest dog and dragged him to face justice. Yeah, that's. That's a dog. The sentry at the castle door stopped the boy. Call him whatever you want, but he owes me for pounds of meat. I want to make him pay. The boy said. The sentry looked around. Did century number three put him up to this? The boy said he had no idea what the sentry was talking about. He wanted his money. The sentry said, sure, he would let the boy through to grovel before the king and make that dog face justice, but he wanted his cut. Half of whatever the king gave him, the guard warned. The boys had sure. If he didn't get in, he wouldn't get anything. 50% of something was better than 100% of nothing. The guard let the boy pass. Turns out it was like 12 and a half percent of something. Because the boy was stopped two more times and promised halves to two more centuries, and by the time he made it before the king, everyone knew

"The previous day, the boy's mother had sent him with a big container of butter that she had just turned up to sell at the town. It was. A stretch. You see, when you're a parent, sometimes you don't realize how much your kids have grown up. Until they do something that surprises you. And then you're like, wow, you are way more capable of more stuff. The mother and son had just moved to the area. And she had been, well, someone call it overprotective. Others would more accurately call it smothering, but the boy had never been to town. Any town. Ever. The Middle Ages were dangerous, and the woman had already lost her husband. She wasn't about to lose her only child, too. But still, she should give him the chance to go to town. He wanted to, he wanted to prove himself, and he might just be more capable and competent than she thought. He wasn't. The kid took all the butter and offered it to the first person he saw. Or what he thought was another person. It was a rock. The kid offered The Rock a free taste, and The Rock devoured it. That was a warm day. The kid said that it was obvious that The Rock loved it. He would sell it to The Rock today on credit, and then be back tomorrow to get his money. The mother had slapped her forehead. Well, that served her right for believing in him. Good thing it was only butter. It was a foolish thing for him to do, and he lost his doing anything privileges. But the kid had tasted freedom. Sure, that freedom meant walking a hundred yards from his house and selling butter to a rock, but it was still so sweet. He wasn't going to take no for an answer. He grabbed his shovel and stomped right on over to The Rock. And that was where he had his run in with the devil, who was just over the whole situation. He was gone in a puff of smoke, and the kids started threatening The Rock. The Rock was stone faced. They didn't have an agreement. Verbal or otherwise, the butter was a delicious gift, the kids smeared on his face without his consent The Rock might add if it could talk and wasn't a rock. Quote, you ret cried the boy. Yesterday you bought my butter and today you refuse to pay for it? Nay, even to answer me on my word. I will show you that I am not to be trifled with. The boy threw down the shovel and tackled The Rock. Slowly. I mean, like, really slowly. It was a big rock. And it was more of a grapple and a squat, but the boy did lift with his legs until a rock, fell over. Had enough, the boy cried out. But The Rock, The Rock wasn't moving. Come on, come on, buddy. It was just a little shove. Get up. The boy nudged it. But The Rock wasn't getting up. Because it was a rock. Oh no. The boy said, looking left and right down the road, checking for witnesses. All right, okay. He was in the clear. All right, you brought the shovel as a threat, but now it looked like he would be using it to hide a body. The boys started digging at the divot with a rock had been resting, and it wasn't three shovel falls before he found it. The gold. It was a chest full of gold pieces. Almost as heavy as The Rock that had apparently been its previous owner. The kid shook his head. Didn't have to go this way. He glowered. One of these would have more than paid for the butter, but you just had to be the tough guy, didn't you? The kid hefted the gold out of the hole. Dug deep enough for The Rock to fit, and tossed the body in. He finished covering the hole, and

Are You Trusting Jesus as Your Savior?
"I should ask you before we come to tomorrow and all our tomorrows to our forever. I should ask you. As we enter this new year, are you trusting him in this way? Do you know Jesus in this way? As a savior, as a shepherd, as a friend. You know, I can not escape my curse. I freely admit it, but as I was sitting pondering this in the middle of the week, I song came to my mind by Scandinavian lady from like the 60s, her name was Evie, and she sang a bunch of songs. I don't know if she where she is now. But one of the songs was, what kind of friend is there on a clear day? And leaves at the foresight of rain. Not this kind of friend. She's singing about Jesus. And then in another of them, she says, are you tired of chasing pretty rainbows? Are you tired of spinning round and round? Wrap up all the shattered dreams of your life. And at the feet of Jesus lay them down.

edition Miller Kayleigh Lyons in Anna Edwards joining us now from Berlin is Matt Miller I have to say I'm really excited about your interview with the CEO of Norway sovereign wealth fund because what is it They own something like one and a half percent of all global stocks Yes they own more stocks than anyone else in the world Which I think is totally cool as well Tron grant is the deputy CEO of Norway's sovereign wealth fund And they're in the middle of a shift because they might have to divest some of their big carbon emitters like Exxon and Chevron They had a new government elected last month and as this new government comes in center left government they're going to push Norway's biggest well fund in the world's biggest owner of stocks to change its holdings So that's like that causes some real wake And the other thing is they are excited about getting other wealth funds other sovereign wealth funds on board even like PIF out of this Saudi Arabia which would be insane if you had ten or $20 trillion worth of Simon well funds say we're going to divest from our carbon emitters So I'm excited to talk to him as well but as Tom said we have so many earnings that we can't ignore You had Barclays coming out which is important to our viewers a lot of them will be getting bigger bonuses now You had ABB the biggest weight right now in the stock 600 it makes robotics heavy electrical equipment automation technology And it's worried about supply constraints So it's down it cut its outlook Unilever the maker of my favorite food in the world hellman's mayonnaise as well as dove's open Ben and Jerry's ice cream It says that inflation is going to last at least another 12 months At least another 12 months So all of that plus SAP is out with earnings You know it's not a $180 billion company and it's traded in New York as well So very important to watch even if no one really understands what SAP does Can I just say QP manets definitely superior to hellmann's Are you serious Is there a's out there that you honestly feel is better than hellman's mayonnaise Japanese mayonnaise the best I promise you can send you some I'll try it But I'm doubtful I've never on 47 years old soon to be 48 I've never had anything better And mostly I can't stand other quote unquote mainly It's mostly salad dressing you know Fair enough All right Matt we've got to expand your palate here We're looking forward to catching that on Bloomberg surveillance early dish and I promise they'll probably be less Mayo chat on that show that's coming up next year on London DB digital radio And for our U.S. listeners you can catch Matt and Paul swe hosting Bloomberg markets at ten a.m. Okay from condiments to banking Buggers makers made the most of the booming deals market They helped to offset more muted earnings that it's trading as units so that was in the third quarter investment banking fees rose almost 60% to close to a billion pounds following the strong performance of U.S. peers and as had predicted 775 million pounds in revenue from this business Revenue from fixed income training though that plunged 20% as the rally that drove record profit a year ago faded Our colleagues and Edwards and Mark cardinal spoke to the Barclays CEO just Stanley earlier this morning I mean I think overall the investment bank had a had a very solid quarter In investment banking fees and the primary side whether it's advisory debt capital markets equity capital markets we had the highest quarter in the history of Barclays And in the markets business they continued with very strong profitability And you'll have mixes between thick and equities and in other parts of the business But overall we were very pleased you know we delivered a record 7 billion pounds year to date Barclays has never been this profitable and has never been as well capitalized in the markets business has done its part Good morning Jessica Guys clarify you kind of see the underperformance of your key fixed income business which has been such a strong point for Barclays in the past It's missed estimates again is down You see this is cyclical and not something they need to be worried about There's no cost cutting that area no plan to restructure it There's no particular plan to kind of fix that business You don't see it as needing to be fixed Right now the investment bank is the most profitable part of the bank's overall operating platform It's done exceptionally well during the course of the year We have a great team I think we manage risk very well So you know when you're delivering plus 15% levels of profitability I think you stay with the team that you have on the field and we feel fine In the overall capital markets it has grown in size significantly over the last couple of years as central banks have injected liquidity to provide financing for customers and clients around the world That capital markets is not going to shrink And so I think you want to have a

Trying to create better leaders. Were not much better off than we were two decades ago. What i wanted to know why. And so we went and interviewing leaders trying to figure out why methodology aside we found a couple of things we were not surprised but one of the about but one of the things i was really surprised about is every time we found a great a really good team not one that just one games or made huge profits but sustained itself over generations.

Two Americas Suggest 20-25% of Americans Hate the Country Right Now
"John Edwards was right. But for the wrong reasons, there are two Americas right now. We saw it again this weekend. And, sadly, folks, there's no middle ground. You see in those diagrams, you overlapping circles all the time. They believe in this. They believe in this and they overlap and you see, this is what they share their beliefs in the middle. Sadly, those two Americas those circles never intersect anymore. We have I don't want to overestimate the number. But I'd say roughly 2025%. Maybe even hopefully a little lower. I hope could be higher, but I hope it isn't I hope it is lower. But 2025% of the country that just hates the country right now. Not really hate it. They're not Bs ng. They're not lying. They're not spinning your wheels. They legit hate the country. They want you to believe the country is systemically racist. Although the systems are claiming a racist to run by liberals, which I always found paradoxical they apparently don't because they're too stupid to process it. The country's racist. It's irredeemable. It's full of oppressors and oppressed people. That the economy is engaged in class warfare, where only the successful can get ahead. Despite the United States, having one of the highest degrees of upward upward mobility anywhere in the world. They want us to emulate Scandinavian, Sweden, despite the fact that Sweden's Swedes in Sweden are worth less on average and Swedes in the United States. They just want you to put the police are out randomly shooting people that the police go to row calls every day. They sit there at the roll call, and they're like, Okay, how many black men are we going to hunt down? Tonight. They believe this happens. They it's It's insane. It's deranged. It's absolute lunacy. But they believe this. That's the one America Let's guess. 2025%. I pray it's lower. My fear is that it's higher

BBC Four Goes Archive Only
"Bbc four will no longer produce new shows and will become an archive for the broadcast. sounds to me a bit lightly as they're essentially evolving from the tv version of radio. Four to the tv version of radio four extra. Do you think people notice the difference. Yeah i think they will notice the difference in one of the things that i'm interested in investigating which i can't see any whereas if they're going to still be taking material from european and scandinavian channels which is something i really liked about Bbc full. You could get some really interesting drama on that. And that's what i went. The i think the idea of an allcock channel is interesting in could be quite sensible. And if they're going to fix other stories is again bring rap bbc three so it's not going to be necessary necessarily old bowl bad news Things have got to change in four if they're building bbc to has always had this confusion with bbc too. So i don't think it's necessarily awful being counters ruining a fabulous national treasure. I think it could be quite a sensible evolution. Your the question politically because there's always a political dimension to these decisions. These days is whether a channel of repeats is a good use of the license fee or the digital spectrum. And whether that's something they can justify it might be. They might be able to say yes. This is the best value for money on lots of people. The bbc bbc to become charles repeats as well. So i'm not sure. This is a particularly innovative move. I actually think it's a bad one. I think it would have been ashamed to just got rid of bbc as i. You speculating on bond. Recent editions. of this podcast. I think that they have such a vast archive. If they can make have a popular appeal demi just repeating things like only fools and horses and things like that but they have so many dramas. I have so many documentaries.

Oh you bet catherine I love the name of your business. You've been on my radar. Because i started following you immediately after the joint slow flowers but before we get started. Can you describe the name like what is the influence of that name. It says plants with gardening and growing. But it's not super obvious. It's a great name. Yeah thank you. The name is scandinavian legend. Or there's like a north legend or early english or something A myth about essentially like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow if somebody finds a fern see because we all know that ferns spawn from spores not seeds. Sometimes we'll get people coming in and explaining that to us any ladies. Did you know But the idea is that if you find the seat of a fern on the summer solstice you can achieve invisibility Lower and so then. I also really liked it because I have a background in marketing and specifically search engine optimization and It was a it was a word that was easily. Google lable like we could be a worthy number one ranking term and google for the fern seed so i picked it also for that reason. Oh it does. It does have a little bit of a mythology kind of storybook vibe that you describe it because this'll related to the solstice. Do you do anything. Special on the summer solstice in which is usually what june twenty-first. Yeah well we try to last year but of course we were just reopening post covid and we were like well.

Everything being neatly tidied and put away because then it's like pleasing. It's like a small little tiny moment of of having fresh flowers. It's just like oh that's nice And i think for a while. I mean there's probably a part in my life for any little mishap would crush me and i think it's sort of turned me into a bit of a neat freak because it meant that that was an area of my life i could kill some control over so there was a time. We're just kinda served me well to think okay. Well at least taken full these dish put them away so that when it opened the door. It's not total chaos. I can't do much else. So i think i've always been a tidy person. But i think it probably got heightened in the in the last years but yes. It's true it's true. I'm i think. I know where you may be got some secret intel. All i'm going to share is at the person who related this very critical intel to me said it also happened to be pretty life changing for them. So that's good to hear that a positive listed in the beginning right but but then ultimately life changing in every way match so you grew up. Sounds like into a certain extent. Kenneth splitting your time part With your mom and canada and then summers aish with your dad in montclair new jersey to set aside a new york for those who don't know where that is. Your dad Was cree and sounds like he was. A healer was a culture her first nations culture part of your life from the earliest days. I'm curious yeah. And in this way that i wouldn't have known was remarkable or even to name because it was just there and my dad did also live in northern alberta. There was yeah definitely split my time and a few few homes as per custody agreements and my parents both moving a lot and so where he lived in northern alberta was was on a a cre- reserve and and he was a healer. And so you know what. My dad's house. There was a sweat lodge in usually one or two ts in the yard and he ran various ceremonies and in the summer. We would go to another camp where he ran fast for people. And i would my sister and i would just be running around in the field and he would be doing that work. And so you know as a kid i didn't i. Of course. I took it for granted that the swizz present in my life and that i had access to ceremony which of course for a lot of indigenous people. There's been you know. A break for a lot of heartbreaking reasons and so i feel really grateful that it was just there i mean the soaraway. I feel about it now. Is that you know as a teenager. I was like okay. Whatever dad and then by the time in my twenties i was ready to come back and say okay wait. Can we now talk about this. Can you share these teachings with me. More you know explicit way was when he was was sick and when he died and so i wasn't able to kind of learn more from him in a more direct way but but of course it it shaped me and it was. It was there. My child had the. I mean even just to know that this is a part of you from the earliest days until learn through us moses through just being around it. I think that's so powerful. It's something that i've been come kind of fascinated with the concept of lineage and heritage over last couple of years. Maybe i'm at that point in my life where i'm getting curious about it. And if it like so often so many of us really know nothing about you. Know not just our parents as human beings but also the lineage that you know their parents and their parents and their parents and and what may have been lost along the way. Yeah and it's interesting. What gets shared. Because my dad was also french that my last name couture was my dad's last name but i know i know about french. Canadian like i would feel a bit shakey thing. I say a french canadian ancestry. I don't feel like. I'm part of that cultural group in the present whereas my from my mother's side she scandinavian and her parents lived in new norway. Alberta says it all right there and and so there was. There was some presence of that. You know adhere the stories and some of the words and the way. They talked about being norwegian and swedish. Was there but dia french. But i kinda i don't really talk about some like i wouldn't know what to say so it's interesting with the lineage. Because it's also like what was what happened to be present and so i can't the ways that i think of myself.

The Swedish Secret to Happy, Productive Work Days
"There's yet another scandinavian term. Making the trending rounds lately. This one has been around in some circles for a while. There even used to cafe in manhattan by this name that went to a few times. It's called fica f. i a and it's basically the swedish word for a coffee break but in practice means so much more quoting courts. The word fica is used both as a noun and a verb and is derived from the swedish word for coffey. A national obsession for the world's third largest coffee drinking nation unlike the american style. Caffeine jolt the swedish coffee break is a moment to literally leave work behind taken first around ten. Am and then at three pm. It's not a strategy for multitasking or for fitting in another mini meeting. It's a chance to relax in the company colleagues. The longstanding swedish social ritual doesn't necessarily even have to involve coffee. the key is to pause your day and quote. You can have your coffee or tea. Whatever your pleasure. And ideally you'd pair your beverage with a fresh baked good but the main point is to take a real actual break from work lars lund. Who owned that chain of fika coffee shops here in new york city told courts that taking a fica break two or three times a day makes them more productive and number of studies have backed this up. According again in two thousand ten grant thornton study found that swedish workers were the least stressed worldwide. Perhaps in part because we companies are experimenting with the six hour work day and made fica mandatory and even though only one percent of swedish employees work overtime according to the latest oecd better life index. They're not any less productive linkoping. university professor. Rebecca adult suard has studied the history of swedish social rituals and says breaks like fica may actually boost productivity studies. Show that people who take a break from the work don't do less. It's actually the opposite. Efficiency at work can benefit from these kinds of get togethers. She writes on her university blog. Her observations support a two thousand fourteen stanford university work productivity study that argues for capping the work week at fifty hours maximum and quotes and nyaka yano. The general design manager at moody says she noticed that swedish workers are exceptionally good at switching between relaxation and focus and within office space is the fact that the break is taken. Together across hierarchies putting all that aside for a few minutes can really help break down barriers and encourage healthy forms of bonding among colleagues. When i read about fika. I realized that i've kind of set my schedule up this way without meaning to i take a mid morning break to have a snack and coffee and pull myself away from the endless feeds and e mails. I'd been staring at all morning. And then i take another no screen break in the afternoon. Once this podcast goes up. of course. i'm not in an office. Space chatting with co workers and always manage to take both of those breaks every day. But that's the goal. And on the days that i do. There is a noticeable difference in my energy focus and overall contentment levels. Now i just need to get better about my baked goods game if you want to dive deeper into fica. There's a few books out there. One that kept popping up for me is actually a recipe book but it also includes a lot of information about the custom in how to adopt it in your own life. it's called fica. The art of the swedish coffee break by annaborough bonus and johanna pinball and the official sweden youtube account also produced a six part series on fica back in two thousand sixteen that you can watch to learn more about it links to both of those in the show notes

Baby-Led Weaning Made Easy
How to Choose a Safe Seat for Your Baby to Eat with High Chair Designer Kirsti Vandraas
"Today. We're talking about the seat in which your baby learns how to eat. That's right highchairs. And when it comes to hide your design there is no one more well known for icon design in this space than peter obstacle of norway. Peter offset designed the trip trap highchair in one thousand nine hundred seventy two. When he looked around for a chair that allowed his son to sit in a natural way at the grownups table and because nonesuch chair existed he designed what is now known as the iconic trip chair basically so he could include his son in as he says life round the table. So many of you may have this chair that trip trap or recognize it. It's sometimes like to a ladder so the trip trap is a wooden chair with an adjustable seat and adjustable footplate and grows with your child so the company that peter designed it for which is called. Shutt- is headquartered in norway. And they've actually sold more than twelve million trip trap as so it is one of the. Most globally recognized chairs. Personally i love this chair. I have in us seven of the trip traps around the table for my seven children. They've really been fabulous investment wonderful. Especially if you have a smaller space where you're feeding your baby or babies or if you're feeding multiples it's wonderful because it has a much smaller footprints like not one of those highchairs. It's gonna take up your kitchen. So while peter fix trip trap was designed and launched in one thousand nine hundred ninety two when his son was little forty years later in twenty thirteen obstacle launched. Another chair called the nomi and this was really his realization of his vision for designing the next generation highchair one. That's dedicated to his grandchildren. So peter obstacles now eighty one at the time of this recording. He continues to work every day. And cures deep vandross is a physiotherapist and an ergonomic who works very closely with peter. In fact she's worked with peter object for the last thirteen years. So kirsty is going to be on the podcast today. Sharing peter's vision and philosophy about the chairs that he originally designed for his child and his grandchildren. Now that millions of families of used around the world. So if you have a trip trap or a nomi- or if you're in the market for a highchair that will continue to serve your family and your child long after these initial stages of starting solids. I think you're really going to enjoy this interview. Because the scandinavian design principles and the philosophies held by peter and explained today by st are so very different from what we may have in mind when we go to select a seat for our baby to learn how to eat so today on the podcast. Kirstin i are going to be talking about the difference in american and european safety standards. Why norwegian families do not actually strap their babies of their toddlers into the degree or the extent that americans may think is necessary. This is going to be very eye opening for a lot of you certainly was for me as kind of a control freak. Mom we'll be chatting about why the trip trap and the nomi were designed with the very obvious absence of trey and what that means. and then. How the adjustable foot rest is probably the most important safety and design component missing from most highchairs today. So i hope you enjoy this interview with cure. Steve andros from the peter obsta company. Kirsty thank you so much for joining us. I am so excited to have the opportunity to interview you. It's catching get now. If you can. Would you tell us a little bit about your background. And how you know the whole life story maybe. How did you get into product design. And then how did you come to. Work with. Peter ops vic. Oh it's a long story. I am a physiotherapist anais. I started working in our major hospital here in in ostler with people with back and neck problems you know. People came into the hospital more or less paralyzed with pain and never thought they would be able to come up and walk again and with a treatment lots of guidance we build them up again and they went home and they were fine and had a lotta for knowledge with how to behave to avoid back and neck problems then. I saw that it was difficult for them. To use to knowledge they had when they went back to back. So i sold our institution equivalent to osha would been interesting place to work to see if i was able to get other people to create positive working environments where you could work but still keep your health so i spent ten years in our show in charge of ergonomics and then i started sinking. What about getting into detail. The totality because their via opium much more than chair tables but share and tables reports on the totality and. I wanted to see if we could make chairs in such way that you didn't talk to have problems with your body after sitting. Who working so. I started working ritual. Company that developed sitting solution for the working person unlock was contested. Interesting period thomas there for six teen years and then i met peter ops week. One of a number of designers. We used not process another lost twelve years. We're solely read. Peter and peter's sir designs promoting them talking about taking part in the product development. So that was a long story. But you know the background and How i ended up here. And you're still actively working with peter. Is that correct. Yes yes wonderful. Can you tell us a little bit about the history of the design of the trip trap and then the nomi highchairs and especially with regard to promoting freedom and fellowship. The trick drop chair was developed in the beginning of the seventies piotre just had his son wounding sixty nine will sitting on an ordinary highchair s. You know the high chair has been around for for generations. you know egypt. They use highchair. the hunt. Chance in their mini is an pizza hut his son sitting in hijab but then when he reached a year and a half you know he didn't really need to sit with the sort of support all around his waist. He was looking for other chairs that he could place his son around the table together with the rest of the company that did not exist so he had to make his own amber trip chapels but one then in nineteen seventy two and i think he did something very clever back then because he did not make it to fit into what you call the design of the seventies he had the distinct bischel feature in the seventies and the result is that the chair still look quite Modern had he designed it giving it the visual design of what the kitchen look like. Back in nineteen seventy two. It would have been outdated very old looking chair today.

It could be something as simple as blue cheese or something like the filipino delicacy balut which is a boiled fertilized egg with the embryos still inside sweden has its own acquired tastes delicacy which has spawned hundreds of reaction videos and caused it to be banned by airlines. Learn more about sir strumming. The world smelly food on this episode of everything everywhere. Daily this episode is sponsored by audible dot com. My audiobook recommendation. Today is the almost nearly perfect people. Behind the myth of the scandinavian utopia by michael booth journalists.

He leaves his adoptive home of denmark and embarks on a journey through all five of the nordic countries to discover who these curious tribes are the secrets of their success and most intriguing of all what they think of each other.

More specifically sir strumming is canned fermented herring that in and of itself doesn't sound that bad. There are many fermented foods that we eat and we have no problem with them. Yogurt sauerkraut and kimchi are all fermented foods. And no-one freaks out at the idea of eating them from inflation is an ancient form of food preparation by the breakdown. Food via microorganisms like bacteria and yeast all well and good cover. There's another process of breakdown of food via micro organisms in that is called rotting serse roaming toes the line between fermentation and rotting the history of sir strumming goes back to at least the sixteenth century when we can find the first written mention of the food however the food might be very well older than that as from. It is a pretty old process. The legend of sir strumming holds that it was accidentally created by fishermen who didn't have enough salt to preserve their catch. They use less salt than normal and sold their fish to some locals and finland salt is used to inhibit microbial growth and to stop the fish from rotting. When the fishermen returned they thought the locals would be mad at them for selling them fish. That rotted instead. They love the product and wanted more of it. The fishermen tried the fish themselves and thus stroming was born today sir. Strumming is prepared. In purchasing a can while in the can the fermentation process continues fermentation results in the release of gases which means at the can will often be bulging due to high pressure inside the can the fermentation of the fish in the can result in the single most unique quality of sir strumming the smell in two thousand and two japanese study found it to be the worst smelling food in the world. The smell is so bad that it has become legendary. it's been described as rotten eggs. A dead body a dirty diaper and raw sewage but the truth is there are so few things you can really compare it to because nothing else smells quite so bad. The smell is what's made the product famous. And if it weren't for the smell it would be about as controversial as pickled herring children in sweden have been known to open a can of sir stroming school so they could get out of class. Airlines will not allow people to carry sir strumming on flights because of the high pressure in the can in the low pressure in the cabin the higher pressure differential can result in some cans rupturing spewing the smelly liquid onto the plane and. It isn't as if you can leave a plane while it's flying or open a window most famously in one thousand nine hundred one a landlord. Germany evicted attendant because they spilled a can of sir strumming in the building stairwell german laws. Make it very hard to evict people. When the eviction came to trial the landlords defense consisted of opening up a can in the courtroom. The judge have experienced the overwhelming odor ruled in favor of the landlord. If you search for sir strumming online you'll find dozens and dozens of reaction videos of people opening up the cans and trying to eat the contents. The videos mainly consists of gigging wrenching and sometimes vomiting the problem. According to the sir strumming experts is that they're eating at wrong for starters. You never want to open a canister stroming indoors for reasons which i think of established by now. Ideally you want to open the can when submerged in water that will prevent the liquid inside from spraying all over the place when it's opened alternatively you could open it while it's enclosed in a plastic bag once the liquid has been drain. You don't eat it straight from the can the herring which is put in the can. Hasn't been gutted or deboned. You need to do that. I then the traditional way of meaning it is with a swedish flat bread called tune broad along with potatoes onions and sour cream. It's usually eaten as sort of small sandwich. I've actually had the experience of trying some sir strumming and it really doesn't taste as bad as it smells ranted given that it's the worst smelling food in the world. That's a pretty low bar but it isn't bad so long as it prepared properly if you really want the full sir strumming experience. I'd have to suggest you visit the island of von in sweden's high coast. It is a center of herring fishing and it's considered. The mecca for strumming. August is considered the best season enforcers strumming. Because it's in the middle of the summer. It's also one of the best times to visit ov- on regardless the main day for eating it is the third thursday of august also known as sir strumming day. Which is the day which by royal decree you used to be able to start selling strumming. If you're there you might be able to meet ruben. Matteson who is the self proclaimed king of sir strumming. He was the person who actually served me my first serve strumming one. Is it von back in two thousand fourteen. He was involved in opening a twenty five year old. Ken of sir strumming which was found in an abandoned cabin in norway. Having been outside for a quarter century the can was quite rusted. And due to twenty five years of fermentation it was bulging a lot. The contents of the container were mostly liquid. What solid material. That did come out. Didn't really look anything. Like fish. ruben. Madsen of course aided anyhow

IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN WORSE
"Alcohol was a looming cloud in this bankers. Bright sky with rare foresight. He realized it could become a tornado. How can a person with a fine family and attractive home. An excellent position in high standing in an important city. Become an alcoholic as i later found out. Through alcoholics anonymous. Alcohol is no respecter of economic status social and business standing or intelligence. I was raised like the majority of american boys coming from a family of modest circumstances attending public schools having the social life of a small mid western town with part-time work in some athletics. The ambition to succeed was instilled in me by my scandinavian parents who came to this country where opportunities were so great. Keep busy always have something constructive to do. I did work of all kinds after school and during vacations trying to find that which would appeal most as a goal for a life work then there was world war. Want to interrupt my plans and in education to be picked up after the war after that came marriage getting started and business and family. The story is not very different from that of thousands of other young men in my generation. It shows nothing or no one to blame for alcoholism. The drive to get ahead to succeed kept me too busy for many years to have any great experience with social life i would have begrudged the time or money for alcohol in fact i was afraid to try it for fear that i would wind up like many examples. I had seen excessive drinking in the army. During the prohibition era i was intolerant of people who drank particularly those who drank in violation of the law in time i became an officer and director of one of the largest commercial banks in the country i achieved recognized and national standing in my profession as well as becoming a director in many important institutions having to do with the civic life of a large city i had a family to be proud of actively sharing in the responsibilities of good citizenship. My drinking did not start. Until after. I was thirty. Five and a fairly successful career had been established but success brought increase social activities. And i realized that many of my friends enjoyed a social drink with no apparent harm to themselves or others. I dislike being different. So ultimately i began to join them occasionally. At first it was just that an occasional drink then. I looked forward to the weekend of golf. In the nineteenth hole. The cocktail hour became a daily routine. Gradually the quantity increased the occasions for a drink came more frequently a hard day worries and pressure bad news. Good news there were more and more reasons for drank. Why did i want increasingly greater quantities of alcohol. It was frightening. That drank was being substituted for more and more of the things. I really enjoy doing golf. Hunting and fishing were now merely excuses to drink excessively. I made promises to myself my family and friends and broke them. Short dry spells ended in heavy drinking. I tried to hide my drinking by going places where i was unlikely to see anyone. I knew hangovers remorse. Were always with me. The next steps were bottle. Hiding and excuses for trips in order to drink without restraint. Cunning baffling powerful the gradual creeping up of the frequency and quantity of alcohol. And what it does to a person is apparent to everyone but the person involved when it became noticeable to the point of comment i devised ways of sneaking drinks on the side rehearsals then became a part of the pattern stopping at bars on the way to or from the place where drinks were to be served. Never having enough always craving more the obsession for alcohol gradually dominated all my activities particularly while traveling

'Piecing things together': Christa Couture on how writing about loss helped her move forward
"KRISTA couture is a cree and Scandinavian musician broadcaster mother and now author. It's hard to grasp the breadth of loss that Krista has faced in her life and those losses feature prominently in her new memoir. It came up that I had lost a child. This was before I had lost a second and the eyes of the woman I was talking to lit up. I have a prints of skies. She said she had lost a boy her baby late in pregnancy it was a premature labor with complications. She described as a special and I was taken aback special had never occurred to me. We know something very few people know she said. It's true. I have been witnessed exceptional events. I never could have imagined the love I experienced when my first son was born how my heart grew, how a part of my being that I never knew had hid within me was illuminated. similarily, there was no way to predict the change his death in my arms would make the privilege of holding him through his beginning in this world to his end. The. Loss of two children has deepened. My compassion for others expanded understanding inspired a letting go of little things and defined what matters most Nothing could make my children's deaths seem worth it. But I can also feel gratitude for some of the changes. It's a duality that's hard to accept. I might argue that. Is Bliss and I would have been content to complain my days away on more trivial challenges. I didn't want this insight. But I can agree we are special few and sometimes the separateness I have felt from other parents is rooted calmly in this knowing. That's Christa a tour reading from her new memoir how to lose everything. Chris is my guest on the show today. Thanks so much for being here Christa. Thank you. So. Your book is called how to lose everything and it talks about a range of losses you've dealt with in your life what made you want to write this book now Well, I couldn't have written it any sooner. That's for sure. I needed enough time to pass I needed all of these events to be in the past You know grief is such a falling into pieces and writing a book, a literal piecing things together So I kind of had to have it all in front of me so that I could figure out how I wanted to do that, and I mean these stories I've been telling through music for years the stories that are in the book. But I think there was something that I was searching for that whole time like in expressing myself in wanting to be seen and heard and put these out there for people. That was very satisfying through music but I felt like when I settled on writing the book, I got to go in depth in a way that I had been looking for the whole time and it felt like I finally told the stories in a way that I can now probably stop stop telling him I mean. Now the book is out in that story will be told every time someone reads it but as far as an artist and creating from these experiences, I think the book finally became the most. Fulsome method for me to do that, you've described your your point form grief Bio as cancer, death, death, divorce more cancer, and I think that this nist of that description kind of gives me pause bit it's a lot. It's a lot to unpack but it almost feels intentional away of to sort of putting everything out there on the table for you. Yes, just little catchy grief bio. You know it's chilly in bullet form. It's a staggering I think even for myself in in thinking about this book and what I wanted to write in sort of being like well, there was this and this I was like, wow, that is that's a lot. It's a lot. Each one of those is a lot. and so I distill it down to that to Kinda give people a sense of what everything is to me in this book And of course, the death death that's the deaths of two of my children. That's the biggest part of everything and then there's all those other losses around it but the grief just kind of became an easy way to try and explain it to people. And I think people like sometimes no one or two of those things about like at a glance they're like, oh, the person with one leg or maybe they've heard some other interviews like, oh, the person who lost two children are the cancer survivor like there's kind of these different parts that people know in my my little grief bio is my way of saying, oh no, it's it's all one person.
