Åsa and Chris are friendly, wonderful and knowledgeable hosts. They make history fun and accessible to all ages. The Swedish Phrase of the Week that opens each podcast gives a glimpse into the Swedish culture. And thanks to Magnus for his suggestions. i almost forgot they sometimes include outtakes at the end, which are hilarious. So are the occasional tangents when they go off script. Tack så mycket!
