    Oslo neighborhood guide: Majorstuen and Frogner

    Is it Majorstuen or Majorstua? And what does Frogner actually mean? Two of Oslo's posher neighborhoods get their day in the sun--but did we let them off easy? On the news: where to go in an emergency, building density, and an update to Seamus's investigation into why our local grocery stores are so sad. Music: Whiddershins

    Oslo neighborhood guide: Sentrum

    Can Sentrum even be called a neighborhood? According to the city, no! And we concur, because it's got very little going for it. But why is that? And who lives there besides rats? We've also got news about an alcohol robbery and a pollen warning. Stay tuned for our ongoing neighborhood rankings! Music: Whiddershins

    Oslo neighborhood guide: Carl Berners plass

    Next up on the Oslo neighborhood chopping block: we return to Carl Berners plass and discuss what it has to offer besides a squareabout. Indigo learns how bingo works, and we share a snow crab update, as well as concerning news from podiatrists. Theme song: Whiddershins

    Oslo neighborhood guide: Skøyen and Torshov

    Eeeeeveryone is about to be sending us objections, corrections, and maybe even hate mail, as we kick off our Oslo neighborhood guide series. Starting off at the bottom (according to us): Skøyen and Torshov. Before the dragging begins though, we've got news and updates, including signs of spring, icy roads (is this news??), and who's behind "I love sluts" graffiti.

    Week 9, 2026: Noise complaints, cider standards, and NIMBYs

    This week is all about complaints: a loud waterfall, the people of Carl Berner's Plass don't want McDonalds, and Indigo gives a piece of her mind about Norwegians and small business. Plus, Sweden is salty about new cider standards. This episode brought to you a day late by Indigo having a flu :( Theme song: Whiddershins

    Week 8, 2026: Happy Ramadan-Lunar New Year-Fastelavn-Valentine's

    What a week of celebrations! We do a brief dive into religious traditions and history. Foreigners can't drive in the snow, say residents of Troms. And also, crows invading the city. What do they want?

    Week 4, 2026: Klepto cat, new tax rules, and an electrifying investigation,

    We are really bringing the most important news this week on a real breadth of topics: new tax and debt rules that could affect YOU, a kleptomaniac cat, a snus update (kind of?), and is it safe to walk your dog at Jernbanetorget?' Music: Whiddershins

    Snus/Snus

    Haven't tried snus yet? We don't recommend you do, but in Norway it's ubiquitous, and the reason for strange bumps under people's lips, making them look like Whos straight out of Whoville. But what actually are these mysterious Scandinavian pouches? How do they convey nicotine into your bloodstream? And when did they get so popular with MAGA bros across the pond?
