What The Denmark | Danish Culture for Expats, Internationals and Danes
- Publisher: Cofruition
- Total Episodes: 8
Danish culture can be pretty confusing, especially if you are not from Denmark. This podcast is on a mission to resolve cultural confusion in the country, and help anyone understand how people in this unique country think and behave. Co-hosts Sam Floy (British podcaster, “The Outsider”) and Josefine Volqvartz (Danish TV journalist, “The Insider”) speak to experts and members of the public to understand and explain why something so normal in Danish culture is confusing to outsiders. Rather than simply point fun, or say something like “Danes have an ironic sense of humour” we go deep, by speaking to experts to explain why. Importantly, this show is as much for Danes as it is non-Danes. What The Denmark is an educational, entertaining and inclusive show where we take a curious look at things that seem normal in Denmark, and get to the bottom of why. The show is aimed at everyone with a connection to Denmark, and people around the world looking to learn more about the happiest country in the world. If you’ve ever felt that you want to understand more about Denmark and Danish culture, then this is the podcast for you! Learn more at https://www.whatthedenmark.com/
