Money, Missiles, and a Mic Drop. As Fionn and Katie—two internationals living in Denmark—wrap up the season, they reflect on the biggest shifts in the country and on the podcast itself—and what still lies ahead. But the world doesn’t stop: NATO’s new agreement for members to spend 5% of GDP on defense marks a dramatic pivot in global priorities, raising big questions for Denmark’s role. At the same time, the Danish treasury reports a surprise 58 billion DKK surplus—but will it ease everyday burdens or just patch budget holes? Alongside the headlines, the hosts share what they’ve learned from this season of conversations, questions, and community—making space to close the loop before the next chapter begins.
