Like always, Dan has two awesome tales this week! We are headed to Sweden! The first story is about Borgvattnet Vicarage. For nearly a century, this remote, rural house has terrified priests, guests, and paranormal investigators with apparitions, phantom voices, and a grieving woman known only as the Gray Lady. Then we go deep in the forests of Värmland. Frammegården is an 18th-century parsonage so haunted that priests, investigators, and overnight guests have all fled in terror. From crawling shadow figures to violent attacks and the infamous “Black Hallway,” this house's spirits seem less interested in communicating… and more interested in hunting. Lynze has a theme to her stories as well this week: strange women raising havoc in two different homes! Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

Donny is joined by one of the world's first supermodels, Paulina Porizkova. Porizkova takes us on a journey from her early years that saw her leave Czechoslovakia for Sweden, how meeting modeling scout John Casablancas changed her life, and how the end of her marriage to rock star Ric Ocasek impacted her. Paulina also gives her thoughts on the differences between men and women aging and discusses how aging impacts the careers of models. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
President Trump is unapologetic about his comments about Rob Reiner's death on Truth Social and - in under one minute - explains why he thinks the director was bad for America. A DC police commander is accused of fudging crime data and bullying cops into underreporting violent crime in the nation's capital. The former CEO of the Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce is accused of creating a fake nonprofit and a bogus CEO to funnel taxpayer money to himself. Plus proof that Minnesota was the blueprint for Somalian fraud... that's also happening in Sweden.

In episode 220, host Galit Friedlander and guest Chad Geiger (dance agent at The Movement Talent Agency) pull back the curtain on what representation really looks like from the agency side and what dancers often misunderstand about it. We talk about essential pieces of a sustainable dance career: communication, contracts, headshots and resumes that actually serve you, and how your choices off the floor impact your opportunities just as much as your training on it. Chad shares insight on navigating direct bookings, building trust with your team, and why “doing the basics well” is still one of the biggest differentiators in today's industry.

The tribe of Asher was populous, and their land allotment in the Levant bordered Sidon and Tyre. Their descendants included the Vandals, and they spread to many lands, including the Eurasian steppes, Wales, Sweden, and North Africa. Many of them ultimately became Arian Christians, and amazingly God has the ability to identify who are His, and where they all went!

The Daily Mail's Richard Eden reports on “Project Thaw,” a supposed effort to soften the Sussex freeze, with Harry's security review framed as part of a wider plan that could include UK schooling for the children—prompting a pointed response from royal insider Deep Crown about the logistics and emotional reality. New claims also swirl about tension between Queen Camilla and Catherine over whether Harry deserves any path back, while separate reporting suggests Kate's friendship with Sarah Ferguson is being watched closely amid worries about leaks. Overseas, Sweden's Royal Court confirms Princess Sofia was introduced to Jeffrey Epstein around 2005, stressing she declined a Caribbean invitation and has had no contact for 20 years. We also spot a small but loaded detail at Clarence House: family photos on display include images tied to Harry and Meghan's wedding and Louis's christening.

In this explosive episode of Habari Live, we break down Donald Trump's latest rally remarks where he openly praises “white countries” while attacking Black and brown nations, Somali communities, and Rep. Ilhan Omar. We examine how this rhetoric isn't accidental — it's part of an authoritarian immigration agenda that includes expanded status checks, ICE raids, and the criminalization of entire communities.We expose why Trump's obsession with Norway and Sweden ignores reality: universal healthcare, strict gun laws, and affordable childcare — policies Republicans fight at every turn. As GOP leaders prepare to let Obamacare subsidies expire, millions face rising healthcare costs while ignorance is weaponized for political power.The episode also covers a federal judge ruling that stripping protections from Venezuelans was illegal, the seizure of a Venezuelan oil tanker, and Trump openly discussing ground troops — exactly as we warned weeks ago.Plus: Christian nationalism exposed, ICE chasing U.S. citizens, MAGA crowds chanting “send her back,” Barack Obama inspiring kids in Chicago, Rep. Jasmine Crockett fighting back, and why performative cruelty has become Republican policy.This is Habari Live — News Our Way.#HabariLive #Trump #Immigration #ICE #Authoritarianism #Healthcare #ChristianNationalism #Venezuela #IlhanOmar #Politics #BreakingNews #NewsOurWay

Princess Sofia's newly exposed ties to Jeffrey Epstein have triggered heavy criticism because the palace's explanation leans heavily on distance and hindsight rather than accountability. While the Royal Court insists she merely “met” Epstein a few times in the mid-2000s, leaked emails paint a picture of someone orbiting his social world far more closely than the sanitized palace version suggests. She didn't just bump into him — she was introduced, socialized, exchanged emails, and was even invited to his private island. The palace's claim that she “declined” the trip reads more like damage control than moral clarity, especially given how many young women in that era were drawn into his orbit under similarly innocuous pretenses. Critics argue that Sofia benefited from the glamorous social connections Epstein helped facilitate while now relying on the defense that “no one knew” who he really was.The timing has also raised eyebrows. Her sudden withdrawal from the Nobel Prize ceremony — a major royal showcase she has consistently attended — didn't go unnoticed, and it fueled suspicion that the royal family is scrambling to contain fallout rather than confront it. The broader criticism is that the Swedish monarchy is handling Sofia's Epstein ties with the same evasive tone we've seen from other powerful institutions: acknowledging the bare minimum while declining to explain why she maintained contact long enough for invitations, introductions, and social overlap with a man who already had a reputation — even then — for inappropriate behavior around young women. The palace's framing tries to minimize the connection, but in doing so, it underscores the same elitism and selective amnesia that let Epstein operate untouched for decades.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Royal princess curiously vanishes amid shock Epstein revelations after the ex-lingerie model was invited to Paedo Island

This week we start with a new international study examining everyday social norms in Sweden, including why silence in the cinema matters so much, and how these behaviours compare across countries. We then turn to a serious incident at a workers' housing complex in northern Sweden, where an alleged attempted murder has raised concerns about safety and living conditions. After that, Swedish Radio's political commentator explains the latest positioning among Sweden's governing parties and their cooperation with the Sweden Democrats. Finally, we look at Lucia traditions with an anthropologist at the Nordic Museum, as Sweden enters the Christmas season.Presenters: Babak Parham & Dave Russell.

Britain's military has seen better days - that much everyone can agree on. Enter ex-Royal Marine Commando Colonel Alistair Scott Carns, aka Wee Al, the UK's brand new Minister for Armed Forces. Part of the fresh batch of Labour MPs who entered Parliament in 2024, he has risen quickly through the Ministry of Defence and is considered "one to watch". Carns sat down with The Telegraph's associated defence editor Dominic Nicholls to talk about his plans to get the military into shape, the UK's commitment to Ukraine, and the ongoing Ajax debate. Plus he shared his views on Reform leader Nigel Farage and the legacy of Stakeknife in Northern Ireland.

We spend our lives waiting for the "real" moment to start. We wait for the apology, the warm bed, the recovery, or the flight announcement. But what if the waiting room is actually where the life happens? In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, we dismantle the anxiety of the delay. We look at a mother in Sweden paralyzed by pride, a homeless veteran in Russia who refuses to abandon his dog, a nurse in the Philippines keeping watch over a coma patient, and a group of stranded travelers in Germany finding a song in the dark. We ask the difficult questions: Is your pride a shield or a cage? Why do we treat the sick like they are invisible? And how do we turn a brownout into a cathedral? Join me as we learn how to stop checking the clock and start singing in the dark.
The Swedish fiddler Lena Jonsson has created a unique style inspired by traditional Swedish music as well as many other influences. Today we're focusing on the wonderful 3rd album by her trio, “Folk Covers” which celebrates many great folk music composers of today. I think you'll really enjoy this uplifting conversation which features a lot of music, including Lena giving us some spontaneous house concert experiences, and clips from the new album, with insights into process of curating and interpreting these folk covers; please note the timestamps have the tune names. You'll also learn about the Swedish folk scene and regional differences, her experiences studying both in Sweden and Boston at Berklee, her love of creative design and how to dance a Polska.

Transcript:Sv: Skansen låg insvept i vinterskrud.En: Skansen lay wrapped in winter attire.Sv: Snön gnistrade under juletidens ljus och röken från de öppna eldarna steg upp mot den stjärnklara natthimlen.En: The snow sparkled under the holiday lights, and the smoke from the open fires rose toward the starry night sky.Sv: Doften av brända mandlar och glögg fyllde luften, och människorna strosade mellan marknadsstånd fulla med handgjorda vackra skapelser.En: The scent of roasted almonds and glögg filled the air, and people strolled between market stalls full of beautiful handmade creations.Sv: Linnea promenerade med Erik och Astrid.En: Linnea walked with Erik and Astrid.Sv: Linnea älskade historien som Skansen berättade genom sina gamla hus och traditioner.En: Linnea loved the history that Skansen told through its old houses and traditions.Sv: Erik, hennes kusin, var mer intresserad av alla människorna och marknadsprylarna, medan Astrid, den gamla guiden, hade ägnat sitt liv åt att berätta om Sveriges historia.En: Erik, her cousin, was more interested in all the people and the market items, while Astrid, the old guide, had dedicated her life to telling about Sweden's history.Sv: Men just idag låg en skugga över marknaden.En: But today, a shadow hung over the market.Sv: En ovärderlig antikvitet hade försvunnit, och en oro spred sig.En: An invaluable antique had disappeared, and a sense of unease spread.Sv: Handdrejad keramik från 1700-talet, en del av ett viktigt utställningsföremål, kunde inte hittas.En: Hand-thrown pottery from the 1700s, part of an important exhibit, could not be found.Sv: Linnea, fast besluten att lösa gåtan, kände hur adrenalinet rusade.En: Linnea, determined to solve the mystery, felt adrenaline rush through her.Sv: "Ska vi inte lämna det till vakterna?"En: "Shouldn't we leave it to the guards?"Sv: muttrade Erik skeptiskt.En: muttered Erik skeptically.Sv: "De verkar inte bry sig så mycket.En: "They don't seem to care much.Sv: Och tiden är knapp," sa Linnea bestämt.En: And time is short," said Linnea decisively.Sv: Astrid såg bekymrad ut.En: Astrid looked worried.Sv: Många trodde att hon, som haft tillgång till utställningsföremålen, skulle kunna varit en inblandad.En: Many believed that she, having had access to the exhibition items, could have been involved.Sv: Men Linnea vägrade tro det.En: But Linnea refused to believe it.Sv: Hon kände Astrid för väl.En: She knew Astrid too well.Sv: Medan man samlade säkerhetsteamet bestämde Linnea sig för att börja leta själv.En: While the security team was gathering, Linnea decided to start searching on her own.Sv: Hon följde en känsla, styrd mer av intuition än av logik, genom de gamla byggnaderna.En: Guided more by intuition than logic, she followed a feeling through the old buildings.Sv: Snart upptäckte hon en liten dörr, nästan dold, bakom ett av de större husen.En: She soon discovered a small door, almost hidden, behind one of the larger houses.Sv: Dörren ledde ner till en träkällare som få visste om.En: The door led down to a wooden cellar that few knew about.Sv: Linnea steg försiktigt in, ljustet från hennes ficklampa svepte över väggarna.En: Linnea stepped in cautiously, the light from her flashlight sweeping over the walls.Sv: Där, gömd i ett hörn, låg den förlorade keramiken.En: There, hidden in a corner, lay the lost pottery.Sv: En lättnad susade genom hennes kropp.En: A sense of relief swept through her body.Sv: "Vad gör du här?"En: "What are you doing here?"Sv: hörde hon en röst säga bryskt.En: she heard a voice say gruffly.Sv: Det var Erik, hans vän Jonas bakom honom.En: It was Erik, with his friend Jonas behind him.Sv: Jonas skruvade på sig besvärat och rodnade.En: Jonas fidgeted awkwardly and blushed.Sv: "Det var bara ett skämt," erkände han, klentroget snurrande på keramiken i sina händer.En: "It was just a prank," he confessed, incredulously spinning the pottery in his hands.Sv: Linnea tog den tillbaka, och för första gången på hela dagen log Erik.En: Linnea took it back, and for the first time all day, Erik smiled.Sv: "Du gjorde det, trots allt."En: "You did it, after all."Sv: Återförenade med Astrid, återskapade de utställningen med keramiken på sin rätta plats.En: Reunited with Astrid, they restored the exhibition, placing the pottery back in its rightful place.Sv: Folk samlades återigen, och julstämningen återvände till Skansen, med Astrid försäkrad om sitt goda namn.En: People gathered again, and the Christmas spirit returned to Skansen, with Astrid assured of her good name.Sv: När de gick tillbaka under de gnistrande julstjärnorna, kände Linnea sig annorlunda.En: As they walked back under the sparkling Christmas stars, Linnea felt different.Sv: Hon hade inte bara löst ett mysterium—hon hade också bevisat för sig själv vad hon kunde åstadkomma.En: She had not only solved a mystery—she had also proven to herself what she could accomplish.Sv: Erik smålog och sa: "Kanske finns det något i historia, trots allt."En: Erik smiled slightly and said, "Maybe there's something to history, after all."Sv: Linnea log tillbaka.En: Linnea smiled back.Sv: De båda, nu i samförstånd, promenerade över den snötäckta marken, fyllda av julens mirakel och glädje.En: The two of them, now in agreement, strolled across the snow-covered ground, filled with the miracle and joy of Christmas.

Princess Sofia's newly exposed ties to Jeffrey Epstein have triggered heavy criticism because the palace's explanation leans heavily on distance and hindsight rather than accountability. While the Royal Court insists she merely “met” Epstein a few times in the mid-2000s, leaked emails paint a picture of someone orbiting his social world far more closely than the sanitized palace version suggests. She didn't just bump into him — she was introduced, socialized, exchanged emails, and was even invited to his private island. The palace's claim that she “declined” the trip reads more like damage control than moral clarity, especially given how many young women in that era were drawn into his orbit under similarly innocuous pretenses. Critics argue that Sofia benefited from the glamorous social connections Epstein helped facilitate while now relying on the defense that “no one knew” who he really was.The timing has also raised eyebrows. Her sudden withdrawal from the Nobel Prize ceremony — a major royal showcase she has consistently attended — didn't go unnoticed, and it fueled suspicion that the royal family is scrambling to contain fallout rather than confront it. The broader criticism is that the Swedish monarchy is handling Sofia's Epstein ties with the same evasive tone we've seen from other powerful institutions: acknowledging the bare minimum while declining to explain why she maintained contact long enough for invitations, introductions, and social overlap with a man who already had a reputation — even then — for inappropriate behavior around young women. The palace's framing tries to minimize the connection, but in doing so, it underscores the same elitism and selective amnesia that let Epstein operate untouched for decades.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Royal princess curiously vanishes amid shock Epstein revelations after the ex-lingerie model was invited to Paedo IslandBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
Since joining NATO in 2024, Sweden has taken on a more prominent role in European security. Swedish Defense Minister Pål Jonson joined Ryan in Washington to discuss how Sweden is supporting Ukraine, rebuilding its own military with more resources, and pushing for a faster, more agile defense acquisition system.

This week on One Decision, guest host Rosanna Lockwood and Sir Richard Dearlove, former head of Britain's MI6 sit down with Ambassador Mike Sfraga, the first U.S. Ambassador for Arctic Affairs, to examine one of the world's most rapidly changing regions, the Arctic. Ambassador Sfraga, currently Chancellor of the University of Alaska Fairbanks, starts the discussion by outlining the seven forces reshaping the high north including rapid climate change, shipping strategies, and a desire for access among military global powers. The conversation explores the impact of Finland and Sweden joining NATO, shifting the balance of power along the northern region, complicating Russia's long-term strategic goals. The group further unpacks Russia's extensive militarization across the Arctic, including new bases, island fortifications, and the significance of its Northern Fleet on the Kola Peninsula. Ambassador Sfraga further explains why the Bering Strait is becoming one of the world's most important corridors and why the U.S. needs infrastructure investments to challenge both Russia and China's influence. The discussion also details the speed of Arctic warming and the effects on global weather systems, coastal communities, food security, fisheries, and even catastrophic storms now reaching Alaska.

Christmas in Sweden unfolds during one of the darkest times of the year. Days are short, nights are long, and much of the country sees only a few hours of daylight in December. These conditions gave shape to many Swedish Christmas customs. Families learned to bring light into their homes through candles, soft decorations, warm food, and long held habits passed down through generations. The season begins in late November and builds slowly toward Christmas Eve. Homes decorate with star-shaped lights in windows, which brighten the early sunsets. Families place candles on tables and shelves to give the house a warm glow. Churches hold services during Advent, and towns host small events that help people enjoy the season even in the deep cold. Sweden's winter weather encourages families to gather indoors. People look forward to evenings spent together, warm drinks, quiet conversations, carols, and simple traditions that feel steady and calm. This slow build is a key part of Christmas in Sweden. Nothing feels rushed. Families enjoy each step, from Advent to Christmas Day, with a sense of rhythm shaped by the long Swedish winter.

In this episode: we kick things off with the headline grabbing overdose scare of comedian Andy Dick — caught on camera and now speaking out publicly about the “apparent OD.” We walk through what's known so far: the footage, the timeline, his reaction, and what this kind of scandal means for the comedy world and celebrity culture.Then we dig into chilling new developments around Jeffrey Epstein: newly surfaced emails allegedly link longtime financiers and Wall Street big-wigs to Epstein — even after his first arrest for sex crimes. And on top of that, there are fresh reports that Princess Sofia of Sweden met with Epstein multiple times and was once invited to his private island. We break down the emails, timelines, connections, and the ever-creeping possibility that Epstein's web might reach farther into royalty and global finance than we thought.Finally: we touch on the “Candace vs Erika” story — what's bubbling, what's surfaced so far, and how it ties into the broader themes of fame, betrayal, and media spectacle.Expect a messy, intense ride: overdoses, power plays, skeletons out of closets, and drama dripping from every headline.#AndyDick #EpsteinExposed #RoyalScandalGet more AoA and become a member to get exclusive access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOfx0OFE-uMTmJXGPpP7elQ/joinGet Erin C's book here: https://amzn.to/3ITDoO7Get Merch here - https://bit.ly/AnthonyMerchSubscribe to the Anthony On Air Podcast here:Facebook - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirFBYouTube - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirYTApple Podcast - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirAppleSpotify - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirSpotTwitter - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirTwitterInstagram - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirInstaTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@anthonyonairpodDiscord - https://discord.gg/78V469aV22Get more at https://www.AnthonyOnAir.com

On this festive but delightfully off-kilter edition of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro return from an impromptu cruise with a pocketful of overheard conversations, a temporarily abandoned “walking rock,” and the kind of people-watching moments that make you wonder if Thin Mints are actually the glue holding society together. Then Jethro descends—figuratively—into the chilling depths of Sweden's historic Falun copper mine to uncover the true story of Fat Mats, the perfectly preserved miner whose body was found in 1719 after vanishing four decades earlier. Why did he look freshly deceased after 40 years? Why were his legs missing? And how did a simple silver coin become a family heirloom that still survives today? Kat follows with a world-tour of wonderfully unsettling holiday traditions: a rhyming duel with a Welsh dead horse named Mari Lwyd, a frog-eating, piggyback-demanding winter demon lurking in the Balkans, and Frau Perchta—an Alpine holiday enforcer who rewards the tidy and industrious while punishing the lazy with… well, creatively aggressive disembowelment. It's a globe-spanning celebration of strange seasonal folklore, preserved miners, questionable cruise-ship conversations, and precisely the kind of merry madness you've come to expect from The Box of Oddities.

“Peace on earth begins with birth.”In this powerful episode, Meagan sits down with Anna Lundqvist, founder of Sacred Birth International. Anna is a seasoned midwife from Sweden whose work has evolved into educating birthing families, doulas, and birth professionals on how to protect birth as a sacred, primal, and physiological event. Drawing from years of attending births around the world, Anna now focuses on teaching how to reclaim the innate design of birth, preserve reverence throughout the process, and support mothers in advocating for their autonomy. Her philosophy is rooted deeply in trauma-informed care and physiological birth wisdom. Meagan and Anna let the conversation flow naturally as they dive into induction, cervical checks, trauma, and the harsh realities many families face within the medical system. Anna offers heartfelt insight on processing fears, discerning intuition from anxiety, and why she often encourages VBAC at home for those who feel aligned with that path. Thank you for joining us today, @sacredbirthinternational for a very special conversation!!Content warning: This episode includes frank discussion of birth after sexual abuse and trauma.

Starting in the mid 2010's, Sweden's gang wars transformed from neighborhood disputes into a national crisis, driven by splintered immigrant-area crews who now recruit teenage hitmen willing to kill for a few thousand dollars. At the center of the chaos, the bitter feud between Shottaz and Death Patrol, two rival networks whose bombings, kidnappings, and retaliatory shootings have turned Stockholm's suburbs into warzones. The murder of chart-topping rapper Einár shocked the country, a killing that symbolized how deeply the underworld had bled into mainstream Swedish life. How did one of Europe's safest countries turn into a gangland battleground? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Each Disney Princess movie is set in a different time and part of the world. For many they are a first glimpse of history and cultures outside of our own. But have you ever wondered what life was really like for your favorite Disney Princess? Let's take a look at each of Disney's 16 animated Princesses, including the latest addition, Asha, to determine where and when they are most likely set. Then I'll match each iconic princess to a real-life royal woman from the same time and place. So we can get a sense of what life without witches, curses and singing animal sidekicks was really like. In some cases there are interesting similarities; Eugénie de Montijo really did go from rags to riches like Cinderella, Catherine of Valois was a sleeping beauty like Aurora and Mihrimah Sultan was a respected leader like Jasmine. So put on your ballgown and tiara, or strap on your armor and let's compare Disney Princesses to real history! Part 1: Snow White - Maria Anna of Bavaria, Archduchess of Austria Cinderella - Eugénie de Montijo, Empress of the French Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) - Catherine of Valois, Queen of England Ariel (The Little Mermaid) - Louise of Hesse-Kassel, Queen of Denmark Belle (Beauty and the Beast) - Maria Josepha of Saxony, Dauphine of France Jasmine (Aladdin) - Mihrimah Sultan, Ottoman Princess Pocahontas - The historic Pocahontas Mulan - Xiao, Empress of the Sui dynasty Part 2: Tiana (The Princess and the Frog) - Ariana Austin Makonnen, Princess of Ethiopia Rapunzel (Tangled) - Louise of Prussia, Princess of the Netherlands Merida (Brave) - Matilda of Scotland, Queen of England Elsa & Anna (Frozen) - Princess Eugénie of Sweden & Norway Moana - Nafanua, Ali'i of Samoa Raya and the Last Dragon - Trưng Sisters of Vietnam Asha (Wish) - Fatima bint al-Ahmar, Princess of the Emirate of Granada Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!
