Sweden’s Greatest Hits
A deep-dive into the Scandinavian country’s pop culture exploits
This week we kicked-off our Pop Culture Country Tier List in Sweden! We will circle the globe and seek to provide an objective ranking of countries’ pop culture exploits. Listen below and let us know what you think!
Before delving into that, we postulate about coffee versus tea habits, caffeine dosage and how to make the perfect pour over (2:25).
Then we dive into our Sweden pop culture deep dive (10:45) which sees us rank Swedish pop culture exploits by category in an effort to reach a definitive and (somewhat) objective world ranking. We start by covering Sweden’s world-class music scene (16:30), then analyze their contributions to global film & tv (28:50) before ruminating on some of our favorite Swedish literature for all ages (34:45). It’s then on to the meaty part of the postulation with cuisine (38:40), sports (43:34) and a surprise appearance from a furniture store that has become ubiquitous in discussions about the Scandinavian country (49:20).
After tallying up Sweden’s points, we read out a couple of listener postulations from the mailbag (55:07).
As ever, you can connect with us through our twitter account @InPostulation and via email lostinpostulation@gmail.com. Feedback, questions and postulations all very welcome!
Three months ago, we launched our podcast, Lost In Postulation, in an effort to provide listeners with a form of discussing pop culture that was not yet covered by other podcasts. We have been gradually growing our audience ever since and now want to branch out to the Medium community for feedback. Hope you enjoy!
