In this latest special episode of Retrosonic Podcast we welcome one of our favourite vocalists and frontmen Dennis Lyxzén, to discuss his latest project Fake Names - a collaboration with some well known names from the Washington D.C. Hardcore Punk scene, Brian Baker (Minor Threat, Bad Religion, Dag Nasty), Michael Hampton (Embrace, S.O.A.), Johnny Temple (Girls Against Boys) and Brendan Canty (Fugazi, Rites of Spring). Dennis explains how he ended up in a band with some of his musical heroes, their impressive heritage and how he first discovered American Hardcore Punk. He also touches on the songwriting process, the influence of The Ruts and what to expect during their forthcoming American tour and we pick some choice cuts from "Expendables" and the Fake Names self-titled debut album. We also cover more of his many and varied current projects including the atmospheric Post-Punk of INVSN and the Punk Rock outfit Vännäs Kasino and then there's the free-form Jazz of Backengrillen which features members of Refused and the virtuoso Jazz Saxophonist Mats Gustafsson. We also discuss his new "Dennis Deep Cuts" YouTube channel and his time in The (International) Noise Conspiracy, touring with The Hives at the height of the "Swedish Invasion" and we cover what his other former bandmates in INC, Sara Almgren, Inge Johansson and Ludwig Dahlberg are up to these days. For our many readers/listeners who are into The Soundtrack of Our Lives, Dennis tells us how he first met new Refused guitarist Mattias Barjed and of working at the venue when Union Carbide Productions played his hometown of Umea in Northern Sweden. We hope you enjoy this thoroughly entertaining show in the company of Dennis Lyxzén.

The Toronto Maple Leafs retain the largest NHL fanbase in Sweden. Every year, hundreds make the pilgrimage to Toronto to see the Hockey Hall of Fame and watch the Buds. The reason isn’t just because the 416 is the ‘Mecca of Hockey.’ It’s not even all to do with Mats Sundin. No, the connection between the Blue and White and the Scandinavian nation goes back much further - to 1973, and scout Gerry McNamara. We’ll talk to McNamara about his scouting trips to Sweden, and how the two players he found there - Borje Salming and Inge Hammarstrom - changed the NHL and Maple Leafs hockey in particular, creating a connection that abides and continues to grow. CREDITS: Leafs Forever is hosted by Scott Willats & written by Paul Matthews. This episode was produced by Katie Jensen & Vocal Fry Studios. Production & research assistance from Cecilia Keating, Jay Cockburn, Ellen Payne Smith, and Erika Dreher. Special thanks to the men at the centre of the story, Borje Salming & Gerry McNamara, for making themselves available to us. Big huge thanks to Stephen Cole, author of Hockey Night Fever. Special thanks to Mike Ferriman, who knows and has access to more of the history than anyone else we know. Thanks to Mike Zemaitis and Nick Konarowski for digging through the Leafs TV archives again.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 95th episode of the Real Life Podcast! On this week's show, the boys are thrilled to welcome Uffe Bodin and Peter Sibner from Elite Prospects and talk to him about the Oilers, growing the game abroad, and what he's been up to since the last time he visited. Over the past few years, the Nation Network and Elite Prospects have formed a partnership to better utilize resources and information across the two platforms. Part of the partnership means that the boys get to host EP staff like Uffe Bodin and Peter Sibner and show them around the city and take them to a few Oilers games. So what do the Swedes think of Edmonton? "I love it. It is my third time and I am always very happy to return," says Bodin. With that out of the way, the guys wanted to get to what really matters — the Edmonton Oilers. With that in mind, Wanye asks Uffe and Peter what they think of going to a game at Rogers Place and how that compares to an SHL game in Sweden. Is there anything North American fans can learn from Europeans in terms of atmosphere and engagement? How about junior hockey? What is the difference in support between Canadian and Swedish junior leagues? Back on the Oilers, Baggedmilk wanted to ask the guys about Edmonton Oilers' prospect Joel Persson. He's labelled as an offensive defenceman, but not many of us have been able to see him play live. Fortunately, both Uffe and Peter have seen Persson play in person and were happy to describe what the Oilers have in this player and whether or not he could make an impact at the NHL level. Keeping with the theme of Swedish Oilers, the guys also talked about Adam Larsson and whether or not the team is getting the most out of him. Is there more to this play than a defensive specialist? The guys from Elite Prospects certainly think so. Lastly, the guys talk about the blossoming partnership between The Nation Network and Elite Prospects and offer a glimpse into the future of what's to come. Need a fantastic way to spend an hour of your life? Plug this here podcast in your ear holes.

It’s a Swedish Invasion on today’s episode! We’ve got the fantastic Emily Altman (Inside Amy Schumer) to help us “get thai-ed” as we navigate three songs that definitely bring International Flava.

When I was in college in the 1980s, I liked to listen to Iggy Pop (aka James Newell Osterberg, Jr.). I was always mystified, however, by his song “Five Foot One,” with its odd and catchy refrain “I wish life could be/Swed-ish mag-a-zines!” What in the heck did that mean? I’d never seen a “Swed-ish mag-a-zine.” Thanks to Elizabeth Heineman‘s wonderful book Before Porn Was Legal: The Erotica Empire of Beate Uhse (University of Chicago Press, 2011), now I understand. You see, the last and perhaps most significant Swedish contribution (if that’s what it was) to Western Civilization was legalized hardcore porn. In the early 1970s the Swedes (and their porn-allies, the Danes) flooded European markets with the stuff. The Scandinavians were making a killing. As Lisa explains, the “Swedish Invasion” put the queen of the German erotica industry, Beate Uhse, in something of a bind – but it also came at a moment of great opportunity. In the first two decades after World War II, the Luftwaffe pilot-turned erotica entrepreneur had built a sex empire legitimized by the idea that erotica helped married, heterosexual couples have more fulfilling relationships. After all, the bread and butter of the industry were condoms (for customers who could hardly afford babies, given wartime devastation) and basic how-to manuals (for customers suffered from dire sexual ignorance). And the demand was there: by the early 1960s, fully half of West German household had patronized a mail-order erotica firm. But by the end of that decade, pornography – both homegrown and imported – was the backbone of the industry. So what, exactly, was the social mission of the erotica industry in this brave new world? In the end, the market decided with more than a little help from liberalism: German men wanted porn and the West German courts and Parliament couldn’t think of a reason not to let them have it. And so it is that you can buy porn on every high street in Germany, often in a Beate Uhse Erotik-Shop (Warning: really NSFW). This is a terrifically interesting book. Read it.
