Podcasts about Norwegian

This week, I'm joined by Norwegian downhill racer, Mille Johnset. After making a big team move for the 2025 season, Mille's year didn't start the way she'd hoped. Early struggles left her searching for form and confidence. But Mille's resilience and hard work paid off, and she came back fighting, delivering an incredible 3rd place at the World Cup in Andorra. We talk about her journey from skiing in Norway to racing bikes at the highest level, the challenges of being the only girl in her category growing up, what she learned at the Atherton Academy, and how she's finding her way in the elite ranks. It's an honest look at the ups and downs of pro racing, the importance of support networks, and the mindset needed to turn things around. So sit back, hit play, and enjoy this episode with Mille Johnset. You can also watch this episode on YouTube here. You can follow Mille on Instagram @millejohnset.

In this episode of The Brick Session, Mark and Caroline dive into a packed weekend of racing news, starting with the Ironman World Championships in Nice. With the legendary Kona course giving way to the French Riviera this year, the event sparked considerable debate. Mark and Caroline unpack the brutal bike course that left its mark on the field, reflected in a notably high DNF rate. They question whether Nice was given a fair chance to prove itself as a long-term alternative to Kona, or if the tradition of Hawaii will always overshadow any new host.The conversation naturally turns to the race dynamics, where the Norwegians once again proved their dominance, sweeping the podium with a remarkable top-three finish. Mark and Caroline explore what makes their approach so consistently successful, and what this says about the future of long-distance triathlon.Closer to home, Caroline shares her personal experience at the British Gravel Championships held in Dalby Forest, North Yorkshire. In a race that attracted some of the UK's best off-road talent, she put in a gritty performance to take 8th place overall — a standout achievement at 46 years old. Together, they reflect on the growth of gravel racing in the UK, the technical demands of the Dalby course, and what draws so many athletes to the discipline.It's an episode that balances the global stage of triathlon with the personal stories of racing at home — packed with insight, opinion, and the usual dose of Brick Session honesty.

The podcast discusses the launch and market reception of the new Norwegian crude grade, Johan Karsberg, highlighting its unique production setup, high-quality characteristics, and pricing dynamics. Despite logistical challenges and premium pricing, the grade is gaining traction among Northwest European refiners due to its favorable refining properties. Three main topics: Introduction and significance of Johan Karsberg crude: A rare standalone field in the Barents Sea, marking a notable expansion in Norway's oil production. Crude quality and market reception: Karsberg is slightly heavier but low in sulphur, with high yields of valuable distillates, making it attractive to European refiners. Trading logistics and pricing: The grade trades at a premium and is limited to local markets due to shuttle tanker constraints and higher transport costs.

Episode #398: The Telenor scandal has emerged as one of the most serious blows to Norway's reputation as a champion of peace and human rights. Nicolai Prydz, author and long-time observer of Myanmar, calls it “the largest scandal in Norway, but it's under the carpet. Nobody wants to tell it.” When Telenor entered Myanmar in 2014, only 7% of the population owned a mobile phone. Backed by Norway's decision to lift sanctions and forgive $3 billion in debt, the company quickly expanded to more than 20 million users and generated hundreds of millions in annual profits. Norwegian politicians hailed it as a model of how business could support democracy. But Prydz stresses the transition was never real. The 2008 constitution guaranteed the military permanent power. Ordinary people, however, placed their trust in Telenor, associating it with Norway's peace reputation. That trust was betrayed after the February 2021 coup. The junta demanded sensitive telecom data— locations, call records, contact lists— of activists and opposition leaders. Myanmar Now reported Telenor complied over 200 times. Prydz is blunt: “Of course, you don't come back the 20th or 21st time if it's not of any use!” When challenged, Telenor never denied its cooperation, claiming refusal would endanger staff. The company also left intact surveillance equipment capable of monitoring networks nationwide. In 2022, Telenor sold its Myanmar operations to Lebanon's M1 Group and Shwe Byain Phyu, a conglomerate tied to the military, effectively transferring the data of 20 million users to the junta's allies. Norwegian judge Hanne Sophie Greve has warned that Norway and Telenor could be complicit in crimes against humanity. For Prydz, the story is personal: his friend Ko Jimmy, the democracy activist he met in 2012, used a Telenor SIM until his arrest and execution in 2022. “The reason why I wrote my book is because I love my country,” Prydz says. He demands Norway face its complicity, investigate fully, and repair the damage, instead of sweeping the truth under the carpet.

In today's episode of Heal Yourself with Sarah Dawkins, Jonathan shares his story as a powerful testament to the body's ability to heal itself when given the right nutrition. He recounts a lifetime of struggling with both physical and mental ailments, including hallucinations, sleep paralysis and Raynaud's disease. He tried many conventional approaches, but none offered a lasting solution. It wasn't until he intuitively began eliminating fruits and vegetables and focusing on animal-based foods, without even knowing what a carnivore diet was, that he started to see a dramatic turnaround.Jonathan's journey is particularly resonant with young people who are silently struggling with similar conditions. He emphasizes the importance of going back to a more natural way of living and listening to the body's signals. He also highlights the contrast between his experience and the common advice of using medications to mask symptoms, noting how a simple blood test showed his perfect health after adopting his new diet, much to his doctor's surprise.This episode isn't just about a diet; it's about a holistic approach to health and a return to foundational principles. Jonathan's story challenges the modern dietary narrative and offers hope to those who feel they've exhausted all options. His passion is to spread this message, particularly to a younger generation misguided by trends and quick fixes.Time stamps 00:00 Introduction 07:03 The standard low-fat diet, how it initially improved his health but ultimately made his symptoms worse, leading him to his lowest point.09:07 Discover the wide range of physical and mental health struggles; depression, anxiety, IBS, Raynaud's disease, hallucinations and sleep paralysis.14:12 Rock bottom with a severe IBS attack was the catalyst that drove him to take radical action. 29:03 Perfect blood test results on a carnivore diet but the doctor's skeptical and ultimately dismissive, reaction.37:17 Fibre-free diet helped alleviate constipation and other gut issues, challenging the common belief that fibre is essential for health.42:07 A tip for those struggling with their health is to eliminate processed foods and focus on eating simple, single-ingredient foods.Jonathan's BioJonathan is a 24-year-old Norwegian who struggled with a long list of health issues, including IBS, anxiety, weight issues, addictions, hallucinations, sleep paralysis, Raynaud's and depression. In 2023 Jonathan hit rock bottom. After a major IBS attack, he started experimenting with food and eventually found his way to the carnivore lifestyle without even knowing it existed. This way of eating has completely transformed his physical and mental health and now he's passionate about spreading the message to others, especially young people who are silently struggling like he was.Connect with Jonathan https://www.ancestralclarity.com/ https://www.instagram.com/norse_healthhttps://www.youtube.com/@NorseHealthhttps://www.tiktok.com/@norsehealthhttps://x.com/Norse_HealthWho am I?Sarah is a highly sought-after Holistic Health and Healing Coach, International Speaker and the Author of HEAL YOURSELF.She's also a Multi-Award-Winning Entrepreneur and Award Winning Host of the popular health-focused podcast, Heal Yourself with Sarah Dawkins.

Following the Ironman World Champs podium clean sweep by The Norwegian's (Casper Stornes, Gustav Iden & Kristian Blummenfelt) we talk to Arild Tveiten, the man who started it all, built it all and without whom non of it would have happened.

Welcome to Monday Night Live

When you think of Scandinavian design the look of a colorless winter day comes to mind - think pale grey, white and perhaps washed out blue.  But this is a modern-day invention. Dagny Thurmann-Moe, the founder of Koi Colour & Design Studio designs exteriors, interiors, products, and CMF strategies for brands seeking a stronger identity through color, materials, and finishes. Dagny is known for challenging the idea of “timeless” design — instead creating time-bound and aesthetically sustainable environments that reflect culture, history, and human needs. She is the fearless proponent of bringing color back into Norwegian interiors and exteriors and is leading the campaign to add pinks, terracottas, greens and yellows back onto the urban cityscape like it was 400 years ago.  Check out her TedX talk on the topic and tune in to hear a true polymath talk about using color.

This Day in Legal History: Final Draft of the US Constitution EngrossedOn September 16, 1787, the final draft of the United States Constitution was signed by the Constitutional Convention delegates in Philadelphia. Although the official signing date was September 17, the 16th was the day the finished document was ordered to be engrossed — meaning it was written in its final, formal script on parchment. This step marked the culmination of four months of intense debate, compromise, and drafting by delegates from twelve of the thirteen original states. The Constitution replaced the failing Articles of Confederation and established a stronger federal government with distinct executive, legislative, and judicial branches.Debates on September 16 included last-minute details such as how amendments could be proposed and the extent of federal power over the militia. The delegates had already resolved key issues like the Great Compromise (creating a bicameral legislature), the Electoral College, and the Three-Fifths Compromise regarding the counting of enslaved individuals for representation. One of the final acts on the 16th was the approval of the letter that would accompany the Constitution to Congress, urging ratification by the states.Though the Constitution would still need to be ratified by nine of the thirteen states, the events of September 16 set the stage for the formal adoption the following day. The engrossed copy would be signed on September 17 and later become the foundation of American law and governance.Maurene Comey, a former federal prosecutor and daughter of ex-FBI Director James Comey, has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over her sudden termination in July. She alleges that her firing was politically motivated, stemming from her father's adversarial relationship with Donald Trump. The lawsuit, filed in Manhattan federal court, names both the Justice Department and the Executive Office of the President as defendants and claims Comey was given no reason for her dismissal. According to the suit, Comey had received strong performance evaluations, including one in April signed by Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton.Comey had played key roles in high-profile prosecutions, including the sex trafficking case against Ghislaine Maxwell and the recent conviction of Sean “Diddy” Combs on prostitution-related charges. She was fired just two weeks after the Combs trial ended. The email she received from DOJ human resources cited presidential authority under Article II but offered no specific explanation. When she asked Clayton about the decision, he allegedly said, “All I can say is it came from Washington.”The lawsuit challenges the administration's ability to remove career, non-political prosecutors and raises concerns about politicization of the Justice Department, particularly in cases involving Trump or his allies.Former federal prosecutor Maurene Comey sues Trump administration over firing | ReutersElon Musk's company X Corp has settled a trademark dispute with legal marketing firm X Social Media over the use of the “X” name. The case, filed in Florida federal court in October 2023, stemmed from Musk's rebranding of Twitter to X, which X Social Media claimed caused consumer confusion and financial harm. As part of the resolution, both parties asked the court to dismiss the case with prejudice, meaning it cannot be reopened. The founder of X Social Media, Jacob Malherbe, confirmed the settlement and announced the company will now operate under the name Mass Tort Ad Agency.The terms of the settlement were not disclosed, and X Corp did not issue a comment. The lawsuit was one of several Musk's company has faced over the “X” name, which is widely used and trademarked by numerous businesses, including Microsoft and Meta. In its defense, X Corp argued that many companies have long coexisted with similar “X” trademarks and accused X Social Media of trying to exploit the situation for profit. This settlement follows another earlier agreement in which X Corp resolved a separate trademark claim brought by the firm Multiply.The dismissal brings closure to a case that raised questions about branding overlap and trademark dilution in an increasingly crowded digital landscape.Musk's X Corp settles mass-tort ad agency's trademark lawsuit over 'X' name | ReutersTwo U.S. law firms, Bartlit Beck and Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer, are requesting $85 million in legal fees after securing a $700 million settlement with Google over alleged antitrust violations tied to its Play Store. The settlement, which is still pending approval by U.S. District Judge James Donato, resolves claims that Google overcharged Android users by restricting app distribution and imposing excessive in-app transaction fees. Under the agreement, $630 million will go to a consumer fund, with another $70 million allocated to a state-managed fund shared by all 50 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.Consumers are expected to receive a minimum of $2, with additional compensation based on their Play Store spending from August 2016 to September 2023. Google also agreed to ease restrictions on app developers, allowing them to inform users about alternative payment methods and enabling easier direct app downloads from the web. The fee request amounts to approximately 13.5% of the consumer settlement fund, and the firms say they invested nearly 100,000 hours over more than three years.While Judge Donato previously raised concerns about the scope of the deal, no U.S. state has objected to the fee request so far. Google has not admitted any wrongdoing as part of the settlement, and users will still have the opportunity to raise objections before final approval.Lawyers behind $700 million Google settlement ask for $85 million fee award | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week looks at Norway's recent national election, which effectively became a referendum on one of the last remaining wealth taxes in Europe. Despite having a $2 trillion sovereign wealth fund and no immediate fiscal need for a wealth tax, Norwegians narrowly backed the Labour Party, signaling that voters still care about fairness in taxation—even when the government doesn't need the money. In a global landscape where wealth taxes have mostly disappeared, this was a small but potent victory for the principle of equity.I argued that this matters beyond Norway. Wealth taxes used to be common across Europe, but most were abandoned due to fears of capital flight and elite lobbying. That Norway held the line—even amid billionaire threats and a populist surge—suggests that wealth taxes can survive politically when fairness becomes a central electoral value. It also underscores that symbolic wins can shape broader policy debates by proving what's administratively and politically possible.In the U.S., we lack Norway's fiscal cushion, yet we've persistently avoided taxing wealth. Policymakers often justify this inaction with fears about capital mobility, but I question whether we're really more vulnerable to capital flight than Norway is. The deeper issue is political will. Americans have long treated wealth taxation as politically toxic and bureaucratically unworkable, but that may be more a product of narrative than necessity.Norway's voters showed that fairness can be enough to win—even narrowly. But I emphasize that such policies require ongoing public defense; they don't sustain themselves. If we continue dodging the issue in the U.S., we'll be doing so not from a place of strength, but from a place of illusion. If Norway can defend taxing wealth despite not needing to, we have no excuse not to even try.Norway Wealth Tax Victory Shows Visible Fairness Still Matters This is a public episode.

In this thought-provoking episode, we talk with Dr. Hannah Spier, Norwegian psychiatrist and creator of Psychobabble—a hybrid podcast and publication that challenges flawed psychology and exposes the therapists and cultural trends harming mental health.   Dr. Spier, who trained in Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy at the University of Zurich, takes a critical look at how psychiatry has become dominated by ideological influences, often leaving behind the real needs of patients—both men and women.   We explore: How psychiatry has been shaped by feminist and postmodern ideas Why these cultural shifts affect the way men and women experience therapy The overlooked challenges of women in modern psychiatry The current crisis in boys and masculinity, and why balance in mental health care matters How Psychobabble is reframing the conversation about integrity, tradition, and truth in psychiatry With features in The Federalist, Commentary Magazine, The American Spectator, and Mad in America, Dr. Spier is becoming a leading voice in pushing back against the cultural and ideological capture of psychiatry—offering a grounded, values-driven approach to care.   Mental health conditions, such as depression or anxiety, are real, common and treatable.

After a poor showing in the Manchester derby, Rio is with Ste Howson and Joel Beya to work out how manager Ruben Amorim can balance the need for victories with the desire to stick to his principles. Rio discusses how Pep Guardiola adapted during his time at Man City and points out the tactical tweaks he feels Amorim can make without compromising his values.There's significant praise for Erling Haaland who will “blitz” numerous sides in the Premier League this year according to Rio who also debates whether he'd choose the Norwegian or Kylian Mbappe for the world's best striker based on current form.Rio also asks for those Arsenal fans who petitioned against the signing of Noni Madueke to apologise after his terrific start to the season and gives advice to Kobbie Mainoo about how he should approach getting picked by the manager.

Ever stared at a toothpaste tube and wondered if it could take you higher? In episode 18 of Rabbit Hole, Billy Merritt and the BIT Comedy players tumble from dental conspiracies and Norwegian stop-motion cartoons to hoarding hotel soaps, prank-calling Captain Crunch, and even a pirate gang in juvie. Along the way, fluoride turns into Flo Rida, the Soggies declare war, and toothpaste becomes the most questionable substance at the Cannabis Cup. It's improv chaos at its finest: absurd connections, quick character swaps, and the kind of storytelling detours only this ensemble could conjure. From corporate “green peas” to Plato's cave, with a bit of toothpaste smoke in the air, this Rabbit Hole has it all.

His cunning promoter, Jimmy Hart, persuades Jonathan Garvey to face the aging fighter, unaware the match is rigged.

Moved by Jonathan's compassion, Milo agrees to let him step in for the upcoming championship match.” The King Is Dead originally aired on November 12, 1979 The opening song “Albert” is written and performed by the amazing Norwegian band, Project Brundlefly and is used with permission.
