What Are You Doing in Denmark?

Get ready for the cross-over episode you never realized you were missing! Annie and Derek are joined by Abby, Marius, and Owen, the hilarious hosts of the Coping in Copenhagen podcast. We linked up for a laugh-filled, super group style, episode of What Are You Doing in Denmark. In this episode, Derek hosts an incredible game show based on the $100,000 Pyramid with a Danish twist and a lot of creative clues and ridiculous guesses.

Along the way, Derek presents a deep discussion on H.C. Andersen's dirty little habits and Marius describes chocolate milk in a way that would make you lose your appetite. You'll learn how Abby would haunt Annie if she was a ghost, and Owen's favorite conspiracy theory. Although he isn't in the studio with us, you'll also learn who Conrad Molden owes money and which Danish city he has us all scared to visit.

This week Mike and Derek discuss the growing trend of hostility against tourists and the factors behind over-tourism. This includes a new program Copenhagen is testing to incentivize sustainable tourism and good behavior from visitors to the city. But is this initiative as altruistic as it seems, or a McKinsey consultant's wet dream and a solution in search of a problem. Plus, what are anti-tourism "activists" with water guns really upset about?

This week, Annie and Derek debate an annual issue - does summer in Denmark suck? Which Danish summer do you think of; trash-filled tents blowing in the wind around Roskilde Festival, or drinking wine with friends in a lush park under the late night sun? Are your friends even still in town or have they disappeared on holiday? This episode will give you an honest perspective on what to make of summers in Denmark.

There are countless pros and cons, and they all come up on this episode. Annie recaps her experience at CopenHell and why she may go the entire summer without the company of another adult. Derek explains the summer activities he's too old to enjoy anymore and how Taylor Swift and the Paris Olympics destroyed his summer holiday budget.

This week, comedian Conrad Molden is back at the table with Derek to shed some light on the high key rivalry between Jutland and Copenhagen. Having lived in Jutland or Jylland for over a decade, Conrad now calls Copenhagen home. As you can imagine, he is the perfect guest to share some cultural insights and culture clashes that he's felt living in these two regions of Denmark.

To understand more of the background, Derek and Conrad dive deep into the history of the Storebælt, which finally connected Sjælland to Jylland (and Fyn) in the 1990s. You'll hear stories about life in Denmark before the country was so well-connected through infrastructure and how it impacted the economic and cultural development of these regions.

As international residents of Denmark, this understanding has been important in uncovering nuances of the culture and lifestyle of the Danes.

Mike Walsh is back this week to tell us a story about the time when Denmark won the European Football Championship. The story harkens back to the summer of 1992, when a non-qualifying Danish national football team was activated to play in the Euros and scraped their way to the championship.

This week Derek is joined by British comedian and friend of the show Conrad Molden to discuss the never-ending rivalry between Copenhagen and the rest of Denmark, namely Jutland. In his 11 years of life in Denmark, Conrad has spent the majority living in Jutland and recently moved to Copenhagen while still touring all over the country from Bornholm to Thisted.

If you're looking for mentions of remote Danish towns - maybe the one you live in, you will love this episode. Are you a foreigner with questions about the regional differences in Denmark and how you've been caught up in a strange battle between regions of the nation? We'll attempt to answer those questions.

From covering the young people of Jylland in cinnamon to the fake-posh accents you hear in Sjælland - we discuss all the stereotypes, traditions, and uncomfortable-to-witness feuding between the Danish regions. Make sure to follow the show so you can catch part 2 when it comes out next week!
