Taxes, Science, and Mysterious Eels. Denmark’s 2026 Finance Law brings tax cuts on chocolate, coffee, and books—changes that spark both cheers and debate. Hosts Katie and Fionn, both internationals living in Denmark, also dive into a landmark study of over one million children confirming no link between vaccines and conditions like autism or allergies, a vital pushback against global misinformation. And for a lighter touch: Denmark’s national fish vote, the quirky protest pig, and a farewell to Red Allan, the beloved station cat.
