There was a stark warning to Swedes this week that they need to be readier than ever in case of war. But speeches by military top brass and government defence ministers at a security conference in Sälen received some criticism, including the Children's rights organisation Bris, who we speak to in the programme.

Also, we discuss the news that Sweden's most famous football manager Sven-Göran Eriksson has terminal cancer.

What do you know about 'Oxveckor'? We find out about this Swedish expression and some tips to lighten the load at this time of year.

And, should people get free coffee at work? That's a question that's been causing a stir this week.
