Radio Sweden Weekly: Meatballs, herring and Disney — a Swedish Christmas explained
Published 3 months ago
Description
From meatballs and herring to strict julbord rules and Disney at three oclock, we look at what Swedes expect from Christmas Eve, and why some traditions are much newer than you might think.
We also look at reactions to a new report on the MS Estonia disaster, the poisoning investigation at a hospital in Uppsala, and how the lack of sunlight affects our bodies, sleep and mood as Christmas approaches.
Presenters: Babak Parham & Dave Russell.
