Podcasts about Icelandic

In this episode, I share the ancient story of skyr—an Icelandic cultured food that has nourished people for more than a thousand years. Skyr wasn't a trend or a treat. It was relied upon, day after day, to sustain families through long winters and hard work. I also share how a visit to a Danish village inspired me to create a Viking-style seed and nut bread enriched with skyr—one of the most satisfying gluten-free breads I've ever made.

Iceland is a destination that you don't tend to hear too much about when it comes to hiking so when Aussie hiker Sarah Groves contacted me late last year, I was keen to find out more. Over a 12 day period Sarah and her group hiked 160 km on some of Iceland's Hidden Trails. In this podcast episode we talk with Sarah about her Icelandic adventure. www.australianhiker.com.au   Australian Hiker can also be found on our various social media platforms Australian Hiker Facebook Australian Hiker Instagram Australian Hiker Twitter Australian Hiker Threads Australian Hiker Youtube

In this episode, Grapevine publisher Jón Trausti Sigurðarson is joined by Heimildin journalist Aðalsteinn Kjartansson, and Grapevine friend and contributor Sindri Eldon to roundup the stories making headlines in recent weeks. On the docket this week are: US Ambassador Makes An ImpressionUS ambassadorial nominee Billy Long, made another joke, endearing him to the Icelandic nation prior to his arrival as ambassador. Last time he made the joke that he had wanted to manage ICE, but had been misheard by Trump and instead appointed ambassador to Iceland. Last week in congress, Billy was overheard joking that he was going to become Iceland's first governor, instead of ambassador, as Iceland became the USA's 52nd state. This did not vote well with the Icelandic public, presuming that Greenland would become the 51st state.Attempt At Soliciting Prostitutions Leads MP To ResignGuðbrandur Einarsson, an MP for Viðreisn (the Reform Party), has resigned from Parliament due to an attempted purchase of prostitution in 2012. He was questioned by police at the time but says he was never charged. He decided to step down after local news outlet Vísir planned to report on the case.Greenland Drama ContinuesIn an effort to put pressure on fellow NATO allies in his continued effort of gobbling up Greenland, President Trump put tariffs on all the Scandinavian countries, Germany, France and the Netherlands, but not Iceland. Promoting suggestions that Trump simply forgot Iceland. Foreign citizens 20% of Iceland's populationForeign citizens living in Iceland are now 83.950, or just above 20% of the total population. Five years ago, they were 15%. The proportion of foreign nationals living in some municipalities reaches almost 70%, that is 67,4% in Vík í Myrdal, 46% in Skaftárhreppur, and 39% in Bláskógabyggð. All these municipalities are in the South of Iceland, all are popular tourist destinations. According to Statistics Iceland, at least 44% of the people working in the tourism sector, are foreign nationals. Support the show------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SHOW SUPPORTSupport the Grapevine's reporting by becoming a member of our High Five Club: https://grapevine.is/high-five-club/Or donate to the Grapevine here:https://support.grapevine.isYou can also support the Grapevine by shopping in our online store:https://shop.grapevine.is------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is a Reykjavík Grapevine podcast.The Reykjavík Grapevine is a free alternative magazine in English published 18 times per year, biweekly during the spring and summer, and monthly during the autumn and winter.

If you are the sort of person whose New Year's resolutions read something like: “(1) Shoot for the moon, (2) Do what you love, (3) Change the world” – have we got a guest for you! We're joined this week by former Icelandic prime minister Katrín Jakobsdóttir, who resigned from office in 2024 in order to run for president and is now enjoying a second life as a successful crime novelist and climate activist.

We chatted with Katrín about the security threat that climate change and the current geopolitical instability pose to Iceland; her career in politics; and why she wanted to write fiction (“Doesn't everybody?” she asked).   Also in this episode: The Mercosur primer of your dreams! And the disconcertingly relatable story of a ChatGPT-informed wedding gone awry.

We try to catch up on that.Icelanders Are The Fattest Of The NordicsIn a survey conducted for 2024 and released last December, it turns out that Icelanders are the most overweight of all the Nordics.

We try to explain what it is. Greenland and Venezuela Last night Iceland's PM Kristrún Frostadóttir wrote on her Facebook “Greenland is a part of the Kingdom of Denmark. Nothing about Greenland without Greenland. Iceland stands in full solidarity behind our friends.” This morning, Iceland's Foreign Minister, Þorgerður Katrín Gunnarsdóttir, wrote an Op-Ed on visir.is saying, opening with “It is clear that the international system we have lived with since the end of the Second World War is shaking at its foundations. At work are what can rightly be called the threatening forces of history, generating uncertainty far beyond what we have been accustomed to and creating dangers that would have seemed implausible only a few years ago.” Both of these statements are responses the USA's seizure of Venezuela's president, and Trump's subsequent comments about taking over Greenland.Gas Prices Drop By A ThirdThe price of gas dropped by a third on the first day of the year, subsequent to changes in how the Icelandic state collects tax from automobiles. An Icelander Dies On The Front Lines In UkraineA 51 year old Icelander, Kjartan Sævar Óttarsson, died on the front lines in Ukraine  in and around the 20th of December, according to the man's brother.

Saga Thing returns after a much-needed holiday to pick up the story of young Glúm Eyjólfsson, better known to history as Víga-Glúm. When last we left you, Glúm's father (Eyjólf, who some called Lump) had passed away. Seeking any advantage they could get in the district, Thorkel the Tall and his son Sigmund claimed the best land at Thverá for themselves, pushing Ástrid and Glúm to the margins of the property. With no help coming from her eldest son Thorstein, Ástrid is forced to rely on her youngest, Glúm. Unfortunately for her, Glúm is a known coalbiter who prefers laying by the fire to working or pursuing justice for his family. As the situation worsens, Glúm heads to Norway hoping to gain some experience and recognition from his maternal grandfather Vigfús. Of course, things don't go exactly to plan when he arrives. How does this family reunion go for Glúm? Does grandpa Vigfús the hersir embrace his Icelandic grandson and raise his status? And who will help Ástrid deal with increasing pressure from Thorkel and Sigmund to leave Thverá? All the answers are in this episode of Saga Thing. Along the way, we talk about the place of religion in Víga-Glúm's Saga, highlighting some places to look for signs of pagan influences in the text. For example, is old Vigfús a figure of Óðin? Does this saga explore a tension between cults of Óðin and Frey? Is it all about fate? Or is this simply a story about human beings who make their own choices and have to live with the consequences. Speaking of pagan influences, we go on a brief tangent to talk about the dísablót, a special holiday and sacrifice to honor the household gods. As always, we dig into some genealogies. Please have a look at the family tree Andy's been building for Víga-Glúm's Saga on FamilyEcho. And if that's not enough, we also share some interesting stories about corpses getting dug up to face legal consequences for their actions. If you're into that kind of thing, you'll definitely want to check out the episode on Pope Stephen VI from our friends at Pontifacts. If you're interested in reading Víga-Glúm's Saga for yourself, you can find the 1866 translation by Edmund Head for free on the sagadb. We're using the John McKinnell translation, which is available in the Complete Sagas of Icelanders collection and as a stand alone text from The New Saga Library. As with most modern scholarship on this saga, much of what we have to say about this text begins with the edition by Gabriel Turville-Petre.

Hospice workers told me that music is a tremendous support for those who are dying, that they retain their sense of hearing longer than any other sense. Music is powerful medicine. Early Remains' “Weald” will give you an idea of the overall release. Svarvi by Songleikr Lovely Norwegian single, released just in time to herald not only the promise of longer days to come, but the advent of a new release, due early next year. Done in a traditional style, it depicts an endless dance between the masculine and feminine, balance and letting go. Bring on the full release! The Nightmare of Reason by Flight76 favorite track The Nightmare of Reason Much of this is music that has been resurrected and reworked by it's original composer from his band that existed in the 1970s, along with new tracks as well. This is superb progressive music with a tinge of the original era still permeating, yet without it’s overexcesses. The musicianship is superb, as well as the vocals, and the thoughtfulness of the lyrics all combine for a stunning “debut.” I'm presenting the epic opener as my favourite track, but all are worthy of your time. Tepid on my Trippin Heels by Naomi Randall favorite track The Devil’s Fountain Psych folk artist brings us original tunes in that style, plus 2 traditional tunes. Naomi has played all of the instruments on the recording, with the exception of some drums, and sings each in her delightfully dulcet voice. The lyrics are sometimes wry and often haunting. The Smile You Send Out Returns To You by CONSTANT FOLLOWER favorite track Happy Birthdays This Scottish ensemble brings pensively wistful folk songs. They utilize guitars bass, piano, and synths, with both male and female vocals. Guests supply more of the same, plus drums, harp, and mellotron. My favourite track is the achingly poignant Happy Birthdays. Shiraz by Dhafer Youssef favorite track Rose Fragrance Beautiful blend of jazz, chamber, and world music, in honour of the composer, singer, and oudist Dhafer Youssef's wife, Shiraz. As mentioned, he plays oud and sings in his signature style, and is accompanied by piano, trumpet, electric bass, drums, and electric guitar. This is simply gorgeous and everything you expect from this master of music. The Dream We Carry by The Revolutionary Army of The Infant Jesus favorite track Equinox More scintillating retro psych folk that passed me by somehow last year. This outfit from Liverpool consistently deliver exquisitely melancholic piece s, with lyrics offered up in several languages. Instrumentation is provided by keyboards, cello, percussion, and the achingly plaintive female vocals. This is golden. Harmr by Thurnin favorite track Mana Netherlands composer Jurre Timmer's latest release again turns to Icelandic inspiration, this time ruminating upon grief and sorrow (which are rough translations of the title). Impeccably played acoustic guitar is at the core of all of the pieces, with delicate embellishments of flute and some haunting, distant vocal parts. Galleon Ascending by The Prophets of Zarquon favorite track Pastoral The Prophets of Zarquon are back. Their particular version of psych folk shimmers with lysergic splendour, featuring the soaring vocals of the mononymous Roseanna. She's accompanied by Dr Rob Shroud on guitars, and Lord Zar on mellotron, keyboards, bass, and percussion. This is just a phantasmagoric vision.

Two experienced adventurers venture into Iceland's Vatnajökull glacier caves seeking the ultimate extreme tourism experience, but discover that some of Europe's most beautiful ice formations hide ancient terrors that feed on human warmth. Based on real ice cave incidents and Icelandic folklore about the jökulhuldufólk—glacier beings that have grown hungry as climate change awakens what's been sleeping beneath the ice for centuries. https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror   #VatnajökullGlacier #IcelandIceCaves #GlacierHorror #IceTerror #ArcticNightmare #FrozenDeath #IcelandTravel #GlacierSafety #DarkTourism #SurvivalHorror #PodcastEpisode #DestinationTerror #EeriecastNetwork #CarmanCarrion #IceCaveAccident #GlacierDeaths #IceCaveTragedy #FrozenTerror #GlacierCreatures #IcelandicLegends #ArcticHorror #ClimateChangeHorror #ExtremeTourism #GlacierMystery

In this episode, we speak with Nanna Baldvinsdottir, co-founder of IðunnH2, about how Iceland's unique energy system could turn the country into a green fuel bridge between Europe and North America. A veteran of Iceland's power sector, Nanna has spent two decades working in renewables before turning to hydrogen and e-fuels development.Nanna shares how IðunnH2 is developing a 300 MW, ~70,000 tonne-per-year e-SAF project near Keflavík International Airport, designed first to decarbonise Icelandic aviation and only then supply the wider world via book-and-claim. She explains why social licence for new wind power, local energy security, and predictable permitting make Iceland a testbed for scaling e-fuels where other regions are still stuck on the drawing board.Nanna discusses:Why SAF, not hydrogen export, came out on top in IðunnH2's feasibility work – and how switching mid-study unlocked a path to true commercial scale rather than niche pilot projects.The Helguvík project: locating a commercial-scale e-kerosene facility a stone's throw from Iceland's main international airport, using 100% renewable power contracted via long-term PPAs.Book-and-claim as a strategic tool: using it to serve committed early partners like Luxaviation and other motivated buyers outside Iceland, while keeping the bulk of production for Icelandic decarbonisation.Moving beyond “Jet A price parity”: why chasing price parity with fossil jet fuel misses the point since jet fuel is heavily subsidised and untaxed, and how 15-year price stability can be more valuable to airlines than simply being the cheapest.Her role as a “system builder”: why e-fuel plants are far more complex than traditional power projects, and what it takes to keep partners aligned on timelines, risk, margins, and ambition.The wider Icelandic hydrogen roadmap: how aviation, maritime, and road transport could all draw on the same hydrogen and e-fuels backbone as the market matures.Learn more about the innovators who are navigating the industry's challenges to make sustainable aviation a reality, in our new book “Sustainability in the Air: Volume 2.” Click here to learn more.Feel free to reach out via email to podcast@simpliflying.com.

If you're searching for the perfect Christmas gift for that Iceland-obsessed friend in your life, I've got you covered. As someone who lives in Iceland and shares all things Icelandic year-round, I've rounded up a curated list of meaningful, cozy, and delicious gifts that will make any Iceland lover light up this holiday season. Here are some wonderful Iceland-inspired ideas (links included): 1. A Traditional Icelandic Sweater (Lopapeysa) Nothing says “I love Iceland” quite like a beautifully hand-knit lopapeysa. Made from Icelandic wool, it's warm, breathable, and naturally water-resistant. Plus, each pattern carries a piece of Icelandic heritage—making it a functional and sentimental gift. 2. Jólaöl – Icelandic Christmas Ale This seasonal favorite ale is only available around the holidays and has a comforting malt-forward flavor that Icelanders adore. It's a festive, fun, and very Icelandic way to toast the season. 3. Icelandic Chocolate Iceland's chocolate makers craft incredibly smooth and flavorful treats, often using local ingredients. Whether it's classic milk chocolate or artisanal small-batch bars, this gift never fails to impress sweet-toothed Iceland enthusiasts. 4. Iceland Christmas-Themed Mugs Perfect for cozy winter mornings, these mugs let your Iceland-loving friend enjoy their coffee or tea with a little nod to their favorite country. They're great for holiday decorating too! 5. Icelandic Coffee Blends Coffee culture is strong in Iceland, and local roasters create rich, aromatic blends inspired by the island's landscapes and traditions. It's a thoughtful gift for anyone who starts their day with a warm cup in hand. 6. Icelandic Beer & Spirits From craft beers to unique Icelandic spirits like Brennivín, these beverages offer a fun taste of Iceland's brewing and distilling traditions. It's a great way to share a little Icelandic cheer from afar. 7. A Book by an Icelandic Author Iceland punches far above its weight in literature! Whether your friend loves mysteries, folklore, poetry, or Icelandic sagas, gifting a book from a local author is a beautiful way to connect them to Iceland's storytelling roots. 8. Outerwear from an Icelandic Brand Icelanders know how to stay warm, dry, and stylish in unpredictable weather. Jackets, hats, and other outerwear from local brands, like 66 North, make incredible gifts—practical, high-quality, and authentically Icelandic. 9. A Music Record from a Local Icelandic Artist Music is a huge part of Icelandic culture, and gifting a vinyl record or album from a local artist is a beautiful way to share the country's creative spirit. Whether it's ethereal vocals, indie rock, contemporary pop, or traditional Icelandic sounds, this gift connects your friend to Iceland through artistry and emotion. Random Fact of the Episode It’s my first Christmas as a mom and I’m so excited!  Icelandic Word of the Episode Today's Icelandic word is: “Jólagjöf” (yo-la-gyöv) — which means “Christmas gift.” You'll hear Icelanders using this word everywhere in December. So now, when you're picking out that perfect jólagjöf for your Iceland-obsessed friend, you can throw in a little Icelandic too. I hope this episode sparks some great ideas for thoughtful, meaningful Christmas gifts inspired by Iceland.

Also in Olivia Dean news, she and Lola Young are the only UK artists to make it into Spotify's Top 10 UK Song or Artist lists for 2025. Yes, Wrapped is out but does anyone care about other people's listening habits? Plus, Jorja Smith's team are seeking royalties from an AI track which many people believed to be hers, Björk is using proceeds from a song she made with Rosalía and Sega Bodega to take the Icelandic state to court, and the Reading/Leeds line up is one of its best ever.

Yoghurt is the most diverse section of the dairy case: from Icelandic skyr to creamy Australian, and fruity French Yoplait to full-fat Greek. With something to suit every palate, plus a dose of microbes to support healthy digestion, yoghurt is a staple food in the US, hero of a million smoothies, berry bowls, and snack breaks every day. Which is why it's pretty weird that, until about 50 years ago, most Americans had no idea what it was. This episode, we've got the story of the microbial miracle (and ants?) that gave us yoghurt, as well as the secret connection between those heat-loving bacteria and the evolution of lactose tolerance. Plus, for most of history, yoghurt was wildly popular in large parts of the world—the Middle East, the Balkans, Caucasus, much of Asia, and the Indian subcontinent—and totally unknown elsewhere. Even the promise that yoghurt would cure old age, made by a Nobel prize-winning scientist, couldn't persuade Americans to eat it. So how did yoghurt finally capture the hearts of Americans? Listen in now for the little-known story of our curious relationship with this creamy concoction. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Spanish vocalist and composer Rosalía has been a major presence in Spanish language music since she released her first album, "El Mal Querer," in 2018. She started by leaning into her flamenco roots, but since then she has expanded her musical vision to become one of those musicians who defies category.Her new album "LUX" stretches that descriptor to its limit. Her musical tools this time include the London Symphony Orchestra, singing in 13 languages, guests like Icelandic performer Björk, and her own vocals that hit operatic heights. This week, Ana and Felix dissect the album and play excerpts from Ana's interview with Rosalía. How can you go wrong?You can read extended highlights of Ana's interview with Rosalía at NPR.orgThis episode was produced by Noah Caldwell.
