Welcome to episode 35 of the Business Lockdown.
The incredibly talented and blue wave band We Ghosts’ Jon Christopher & Jenn Woodall join us for today’s episode. They are experiencing lockdown in Sweden, which looks very different to lockdown in the UK. In Sweden, We Ghosts are continuing to gig, and we talk about how the music scene will change after lockdown both in the UK and in Sweden. Lockdown in Sweden is a lot more relaxed; people can still eat at restaurants, go to bars and watch gigs, all providing they respect social distancing rules.
This is so far removed from the UK’s lockdown experience at this point in time, and so we ask why: Did Sweden get it right by responding earlier? Did the UK get it wrong by responding so late?
We look to our geographical neighbours and compare how different countries have dealt with the coronavirus pandemic. We also talk about how the economy will change after lockdown, and topically how our situation has been often compared to wartime mentality, it comes as no coincidence that on the day we celebrate 75 years of victory in Europe for VE Day, that we should all perhaps remember to take inspiration from those before us to keep calm and carry on, at a time where we face an incomparable, but similar feeling of anxiety.
Although we may all be feeling unsure about our short-term future, let us for today celebrate those who paved the way to victory and freedom.
