Are you enjoying this? Are you not? Tell us what to do more of, and what you'd like to hear less of. The Reykjavík Grapevine's Iceland Roundup brings you the top news with a healthy dash of local views. In this episode, Grapevine publisher Jón Trausti Sigurðarson is joined by Heimildin editor Aðalsteinn Kjartansson, and Grapevine friend and contributor Sindri Eldon to roundup the stories making headlines in recent weeks. On the docket this week are: ✨We talk about a search for a lost person on Mt. Esja, a search which started on Monday, June 9th, and was still ongoing when this show aired.✨ We also discuss last weeks fatality at Brúará, a river mid way between the town of Laugarvatn and Geysir hot springs on the Gold Circle. ✨The city of Reykjavík has announced the return of the ferris wheel that sat on the city's harbour last summer to mixed reviews. We discuss those mixed reviews and debate the location of the wheel.. ✨ A law was passed last week forcing airlines flying to Iceland to hand their passenger lists over to the Icelandic authorities. Apparently this had an immediate effect as members of the well known crime syndicate (or biker gang) Banditos were turned away in Keflavík Airport over the weekend.✨The Grindavík SARS Þorbjörn announced they would be selling red caps with saying "Make Grindavík Great Again", then quickly thought better of it. We discuss the fact that at least Grindavík has built a wall, of sorts.✨Also, don't drink the water in the Blue LagoonAnd finally, here is a list to The Reykjavík Grapevine's summer playlist, as promised:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5Z0aHSg3SmBYpNuCMCacdy?si=e198fc8ba73c427a------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SHOW SUPPORTSupport the Grapevine's reporting by becoming a member of our High Five Club: https://steadyhq.com/en/rvkgrapevine/You 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.

What happens when the biology is strong but the market turns against you? In this week's episode, we break down the Q1 2025 earnings from publicly traded salmon producers across six countries. While fish health remains solid, companies are facing some of the lowest salmon prices in recent memory, dragging down profits, shaking up leadership, and forcing a rethink of what “profitable farming” really means. We dive into EBIT/kg performance across the board, spotlight standout results from Grieg and Salmones Camanchaca, and unpack why Iceland and Canada are at a strategic crossroads.

In this episode we had the chance to speak with one of Stonelifting's great unsung heroes, Nic Whalen. A man whose relationship with Stonelifting is relatively private, but whose contributions to the revival of historical stones across Iceland are vast, having created countless opportunities for lifting enthusiasts to participate in this incredible historical strength ritual. We discuss his approach to finding these strength relics, his passion for Iceland, and his progression from a lap high lift during his first encounter to having made multiple successful walks around the pen with the mighty Husafell Stone!!!

As our fourth season draws to a close, we've got an apocalyptic, 2-part ending lined up. That's right, we're talking Armageddon, and we don't mean the 1998 Bruce Willis blockbuster. And of course, if we're going to delve into the end of everything, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu are going to need the help of our ever popular archaeology expert and author, Hannah Liu, MEd. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, the failed Soviet-era Kosmos 482 lander that was designed to withstand entry into the Venus atmosphere but never actually let Earth orbit and finally just came crashing back home on May 10, just a few days after we recorded this episode! Chuck, Allen and Hannah ponder the possibilities of cataclysmic destruction that the more than half-ton object could produce. Then, without missing a beat, Hannah takes us all the way back to Greek mythology and the Titanomachy, the legendary fights between the Gods and the Titans that were possibly inspired by catastrophic volcanic eruptions that laid waste to the ancient Mediterranean. Chuck jumps continents to discuss the Norse apocalypse known as Ragnarök – casually dropping that is inspired the massively popular Baldur's Gate 3 as he does. Not to be outdone, Hannah brings us all back to the original Armageddon itself: the final battle between good and evil that is foretold in the Book of Revelations to take place at Har Megiddo, the “Hill of Megiddo” in Hebrew. You'll also hear about where the word apocalypse comes from, and why it's become associated with the end of the world, as Hannah gives us all a quick lesson in eschatology, or the study of the end of the world. Our first question comes from Ahmed, who asks, “What are the odds that a killer asteroid will kill us all?” Allen gets a little excited about asteroid 2024 YR4, an asteroid the size of a 15-story building, that is predicted to pass safely by Earth in 2032 but at one point had as high a chance of hitting us as 4-5% – and still has about a 3% chance of hitting the Moon. Chuck explains that the odds of a true “dinosaur-killer” extinction event asteroid impact from an object at least a mile across is about 50 million to 1 in any given year. Hannah points out that it's far more likely that Mount Vesuvius, the volcano that inundated Pompeii, will erupt again. The last one was in 79AD, and since it tends to blow its top every 2,000 years or so, we're due. Moving back further, Hannah tells us about the Minoan Eruption that devastated the isle of Santorini in the Mediterranean, wiping out the city of Akrotiri, around 1600 BCE and was reported as far away as China. And that's just a few of the disastrous historic collapses Hannah shares with us, including the Hekla 3 eruption in Iceland that had may have had something to do with the Bronze Age Collapse. It turns out that the apocalypse is too big for a single episode! Join us in two weeks for Part 2 of our journey into all things apocalyptic.

This special Saga Brief interview with Anna Melsteð (of the Eyrbyggja Saga Society) was recorded at the foot of Helgafell on a drizzly afternoon following a full day of exploring key sites from Eyrbyggja Saga with Anna, Eyberg, and Guðlaug as our guides. Our day began with a quick viewing of the original site of the Þórsnessþing, mainly to get a view of where drítsker might be. We followed that up with a rugged hike to Vigrafjörður, where the Thorbrandssons and Thorlakssons famously clashed on the ice in chapter 45 of the saga. From there, we trekked to Bólstað on Álftafjörður to pay our respects to Andy's thingman Arnkell. We were even greeted with a rainbow, a generous gift from the best man in the saga. But the biggest highlight was walking the paths carved (allegedly) by the Swedish berserks Halli and Leiknir, followed by a brief rest at the overgrown ruins of Killer-Stýr's sauna, where their tale ended in steam and the tip of Stýr's spear. It was, of course, one of the most rewarding days we've ever spent in Iceland. The stories of Eyrbyggja Saga came alive in a powerful new way as we stood in the places where they unfolded. The day concluded at Hraunháls, where we enjoyed Icelandic hospitality, a tasty homemade cake, and a glimpse of the proofs for the incredible Eyrbyggja Saga tapestry. Can you tell who these two lovebirds might be? Also note the way the upper and lower registers contribute to the story. As evening approached, we finally drove over to the base of Helgafell to sit down with Anna for a chat about her work, the power of landscape in the sagas, and the growing community of saga enthusiasts on Snæfellsnes. We also got some more help with our Icelandic pronunciation. Be sure to check out what the Eyrbyggja Saga Society is up to on their webpage and follow them on Facebook. You can also stay at Hraunháls through Airbnb and enjoy the hospitality of Eyberg and Guðlaug.

Some may call him marathon man or the "Moses of running" lately. This 58-yr-old proud Christian from Colorado has completed an astounding 456 marathons or ultras in his life. He's on target for his goal of running 100+ marathons or 50Ks in 2025 including the completion of all 50 states several more times! (2:50) Having met Keegan Haga more than a year ago and run a few races alongside him, I first asked WHY he runs so much, so many marathon. "Because we can." He elaborates, taking me back to his sister motivating him to run that 1st marathon in his mid 40s...and experiencing amazing things on his journey of running all over the USA: https://www.mycoloradolife.net/about/. (17:05) We dig deeper into the logistics of all these races and the biggest challenges of traveling so much, figuring out where to fly and sleep. In his "year of 50Ks" (as he calls it), Keenan talks about his pace for these races...finally getting a coach to help avoid injuries and do very beneficial strength training...his love of God and people helping run so much...favorite foods before and after marathons...and dealing with all sorts of weather. His previous fear of starting lines was paralyzing at times but the "mainly marathons" family makes it more fun. He's doing all 75 races with them in 2025! (39:27) Years ago, he left a great network media job in Manhattan for a simpler life in Colorado. 80% happy wasn't enough for Keenan. who has some advice for making that scary and big leap of faith from a maybe "stuck" life to taking big swings at life. (48:33) A big part of his life now is staying Prayed up, seeking out people to share kindness God's love with at races. That faith walk also changed after surviving two bouts of stomach cancer. (55:03) I asked him his favorite races overseas - quick stories about Milan, majors like Berlin, "Fire and Ice" Iceland. He also shares wisdom about picking marathons in the U.S. - which can be huge like NYC or small and informal like the "mainly" ones: https://mainlymarathons.com/. Having failed at similar big goals last year, he's stronger and confident this time around, praying through adversity and knowing how God can use imperfect people for mighty things. I close the episode out with some kudos for Keenan, a prayer, and my achievement of a 3 year run streak. Thanks for listening to the #RunTheRace podcast, which I hope you'll subscribe to!

No guest this week, but Mark and Sam are all over the map. They kick things off with Hollywood gossip and late-night mishaps, then detour into veganism debates, tragic car accidents, and why lamp switches are the real enemy. They relive playoff heartbreak for the Knicks and Celtics, share Euro trip highlights from Iceland, and break down why navigating language barriers is harder than ever. Plus, the boys unpack Team America's genius, rant about drinking culture, and drop some highly questionable Charlie Sheen and P. Diddy stories.   Sponsored by:

Are you enjoying this? Are you not? Tell us what to do more of, and what you'd like to hear less of. The Reykjavík Grapevine's Iceland Roundup brings you the top news with a healthy dash of local views. In this episode, Grapevine publisher Jón Trausti Sigurðarson is joined by Heimildin editor Aðalsteinn Kjartansson, and Grapevine friend and contributor Sindri Eldon to roundup the stories making headlines in recent weeks. On the docket this week are: ✨We discuss an upcoming storm warning for the whole island. Iceland is expecting strong winds with near freezing temperatures and snow expected in the north and east of the island.✨ We discuss the parking fees in and around popular tourist locations in Iceland, also known as the habit of charging people for nothing. ✨ From June 1, 2025 swimming pools in Reykjavík will be open until 22:00 in the evenings until August 31, adding a welcome hour to the hot tub soaking of the many pool fans of Reykjavík. The pools had historically been open until 22:00, but those hours were cut by the city in April 2024 in order to save money. Since it is estimated that the extra hour will cost the city just 7 million ISK, keeping the pools open for the extra hour for a whole year would cost 28 million ISK. A puny amount of money in a city of almost 150.000 inhabitants.✨ On the last day of May a concert was held at Laugardalshöll stadium to commemorate a 14 year anniversary of a popular radio show called FM95BLÖ. The show, which featured numerous popular pop artists including Jóhanna Guðrún of Eurovision fame, Prettyboytjokkó, Birnir and Herra Hnetusmjör, to name a few. Around 10.000 people showed up, and due to a mixture of overcrowding and organisational failures, numerous people had to seek medical help, though nobody is reported to have been badly injured.✨A protest took place in Austurvöllur in front of Iceland's parliament this Saturday. “We are not racists” said the organizer of the protest, Sigfús Aðalsteinsson. We discuss.✨An Icelander in his early 40s was stopped by the police in the last week of May while driving in Akureyri. A breathalyser test indicated that the man was under the influence of alcohol, yet the man claimed to have never drunk alcohol in his life. After an argument with the police officer who conducted the breathalyser test, the man was allowed to rinse his mouth of the sourdough sandwich he had been consuming. The subsequent test showed that he had not been drinking and according to the driver this annoyed the police officer somewhat. This is news to most - if not all - lovers of a good sourdough sandwich, who have until now remai------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SHOW SUPPORTSupport the Grapevine's reporting by becoming a member of our High Five Club: https://steadyhq.com/en/rvkgrapevine/You 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.

This week, as Sam preps to go to Iceland, we've got some of our favorite books of the year so far, with Gatsby references all over the place, general indictments of people with more money than they need, and a call back to the Beat era. Here's what we've got on tap: - "Mansion Beach," by Meg Mitchell Moore, a retelling of Gatsby with a gender reversal and a good reminder that Fitzgerald, himself, was a bit of a "beach read" writer.  - "Atavists," by Lydia Millet, a story collection that works a bit like a multi-perspective novel and succeeds as both a realistic look at the suburbs and a send-up of modern life.  - "Careless People," by Sarah Wynn-Williams, which offers an inside look at some of the most ethically and morally bankrupt people the world has ever known: the creators of Facebook. - "The Silver Snarling Trumpet," by Robert Hunter, which is a must-read for anyone who likes Jerry Garcia or wants to harken back to a simpler time and get a glimpse of life before the hippies.

Please enjoy this transmission that was recorded in Reykjavik, Iceland on the summer solstice and full moon conjunction. This conjunction of events lends itself to powerful openings in our subtle bodies and consciousness for rapid transformation and spiritual insights.  We connect to the Fire Principle through the Spiritual Being of the Sun also known as the Solar Logos.  This is a perfect time to make this connection as a reminder and resonance with our own Inner Light and spiritual consciousness that can light the dark for ourselves and others as we move forward in these accelerated times. Also by making this deep connection to our Inner Light we acquire the resources to help others and the planet during possible difficult times in the future. The transmission is guided by Source, the Solar Logos, Solar Angels, Elves, and the Spirits of Nature particularly in Iceland and your location.  We co-create with the spirits of the land and particularly the elves who are quite strong in the land of Iceland.  This combination of the Solar Logos and the Spirits of the Land assist in anchoring this Inner Light onto the planet.  This transmission also helps awaken and balance the elements in Nature to assist healing of the planet and a calming of the storms and natural disasters occurring across the globe.

Almost fifty years ago, when Haraldur Sigurdsson first came to the University of Rhode Island from Iceland, he got interested in what makes some clam shells more purple than others.

She was young, poor, and alone in a harsh, unforgiving Icelandic landscape — and then she was sentenced to die. In 1830, Agnes Magnúsdóttir became the last person executed in Iceland, beheaded by axe for the murder of a powerful man. Nearly 200 years later, her story still lingers. Was she a cold-blooded killer, or a woman trapped by circumstance? In this episode, we speak to author Hannah Kent, whose bestselling novel Burial Rites reimagines Agnes’s final days. We explore how one woman’s life — and death — became legend, and why capital punishment remains a reality for half the world’s population today. You can read Burial Rites here. You can also find Always Home, Always Homesick here.

In this special Saga Brief, we visit historic Reykholt, once home to Snorri Sturluson, for a fascinating conversation with Sigrún Guttormsdóttir Þormar, department manager at Snorrastofa. This interview is the second installment in our four-part series recorded on-site during our recent trip to Iceland. Sigrún generously met with us on a Saturday to talk about Snorri's life, legacy, and the important work being done at Snorrastofa to continue the long tradition of learning at Reykholt on the site. Along the way, she shared insights into Snorri's role as a chieftain, writer, and political figure in 13th-century Iceland, offering a more nuanced portrait of the man we often call “infamous.” If you're planning a trip to Iceland, we can't recommend a stop in Reykholt highly enough. In addition to its rich history, the Snorrastofa cultural and medieval studies center offers an engaging exhibition on Snorri's life, an inviting research library, and an exceptional gift shop. For more about Snorrastofa, including visitor info, exhibitions, and ongoing research, visit: https://snorrastofa.is Enjoy the episode and let us know what you think about Snorri's legacy after hearing from someone who engages with it every day.

If you've listened to this podcast for a while or reading my posts, you've probably heard me mention that Iceland is one of the safest countries in the world—and that's absolutely true in many ways. Violent crime is incredibly rare, and the sense of community and trust is deeply woven into Icelandic society.But today, we need to talk about a growing concern—something that's caught many tourists off guard: a rise in pickpocketing incidents, particularly in the south of Iceland, including well-traveled areas like Reykjavík, Þingvellir, Geysir, Gullfoss, and even inside churches like Hallgrímskirkja. Iceland is Still Safe? Let me be clear: Iceland remains a safe place to travel. But just like anywhere that attracts large numbers of tourists, it's not immune to the realities of opportunistic crime. And recently, we've seen a sharp increase in reports of pickpocketing—specifically targeting visitors at popular natural landmarks.Police in South Iceland have been investigating what appears to be a well-organised group—possibly ten individuals—who are blending into crowds at major tourist sites. These aren't random thieves. According to local authorities and park rangers, they use a highly coordinated strategy, working in teams to distract and steal from unsuspecting tourists. How the Pickpockets Operate in Iceland Let's take the geyser Strokkur in the Haukadalur Valley. When it erupts, hundreds of people gather to witness the spectacle—it's loud, dramatic, and absolutely worth seeing. But as your eyes are glued to the steam and water shooting into the sky, pickpockets might be watching you.They blend into the crowd, posing as fellow tourists. Some act as lookouts, some distract by chatting or even offering to take photos, and others use the distraction to reach into backpacks, pockets, or crossbody bags.Stolen items—mostly cash in euros, dollars, pounds, or krónur—are passed quickly to accomplices, making it hard to trace who took what.And this isn't just happening at Strokkur. Similar reports have come from Gullfoss, Þingvellir, and even Reykjavík's iconic Hallgrímskirkja church. In fact, the church recently posted warning signs at its entrance after a string of thefts occurred inside during visiting hours. Prevention Tips – Simple, Smart, Effective So, what can you do to avoid being targeted?Here are some practical, simple things you can do to stay safe:Use anti-theft bags. Look for ones with lockable zippers, cut-proof straps, and compartments that rest against your body.Keep valuables close. A money belt worn under your clothing is ideal for passports, IDs, and cash.Stay aware. If someone approaches you offering help, conversation, or to take your photo—especially in a crowded space—be friendly but cautious.Avoid back pockets. Never store your wallet or phone in a back pocket. It's just too easy to snatch.Limit what you carry. Only take what you'll need for the day—leave extra cards, cash, and your passport locked up at your accommodation.Be mindful in crowds. Places like Strokkur, Geysir, and the viewing platforms at Þingvellir draw hundreds of people. These moments of awe are unfortunately prime time for thieves.And one more thing: if the worst does happen and you are robbed, call 112—Iceland's emergency services number. Also, make sure you have digital copies of your documents in a secure, password-protected folder, ideally emailed to yourself or saved in cloud storage. When & Where PickPocket Groups Strike the Most According to park rangers and local authorities, these organised pickpocket groups tend to appear in February, March, and July—timing their activities around peak tourism periods. They often arrive early in the morning, scout areas like Þingvellir's Hakið viewpoint above the Almannagjá gorge, and move on from site to site in a very methodical way.This isn't just some random occurrence—it's a planned...

We start this week with headlines on organizing in healthcare, logistics, airlines, construction, software development, video games, and trading cards. We did a deeper dive on a set of stories from Canada last week, this week we have three big stories from workers and farmers in India fighting against neoliberal exploitation. The next major step forward for Mexico's young independent labor movement may be coming up, as Labor Notes reports on efforts to bring new union SINTTIA to a second major plant from GM. The Supreme Court took a major step towards dismantling the NLRA and the entire post-Depression regime of contractual collective bargaining this week, and unions will need to shift tactics to respond. Finally, we discuss how the 4 day workweek is going in Iceland.
