Hey everyone! Here it is! My annual rundown of all the books I read this year. Join me as I celebrate my birthday with a beer (this time alcohol free), and some salty opinions about books! Full list of books below, don't scroll if you're avoiding
Norwegian Chinwag #10 - Saying "Nei" with Anna
Today is a chat with one of my favorite fellow students (and fellow American) Anna! Have a seat as we go deep about some our struggles, favorite moments and some cultural differences we've noticed!
Norwegian Chinwag #9 - DnDnB (Dungeons and Dragons and Boats and Juriaan)
Join me and fellow boatbuilder Juriaan as we talk about the school, our course and the twin keeled boat he restored during COVID.
Norwegian Chinwag #8 - The Signal-Man by Charles Dickens!
Hey folks, in honor of Halloween, (and because my brain hurts from learning to sew sails by hand) here's me reading one of my favorite ghost stories. A spooky little tale by Charles Dickens!
Norwegian Chinwag #7 - Solfinn's One-Dimensional Childhood
Hello everyone! Sorry this episode is a bit late, but I think it's worth it. Join us as we discuss what we did on our fall break, and try to determine who's the loudest Dane in the school!
Norwegian Chinwag #6 - Inside of a sau with Alice
Join fellow boatbuilder Alice and I as we discuss the school's recent trip to an island inhabited solely by sheep. No featuring 30% more terrible attempts at speaking Norwegian.
Norwegian Chinwag #5 - "Janteloven with Nora"
Join me and fellow Fosen student Nora as we chat about society-wide passive aggression, how to be hardcore about Christmas treats, and just what's up with Sweden's island obsession. [Pictured Nora's Cottage-[Hard]core room at Fosen.] [Some technical difficulties delayed the regular podcast feed. Sorry!]
Norwegian Chinwag #4 - "Boatbuilder Titillation" or "Oliver Builds a Lego Set."
This week I am joined by Oliver, another fellow Boatbuilder. Join me for a profanity filled journey into the mind of a young Australian, as we talk about our time in the woods, our least favorite meals and what a tease our teacher can be.
Norwegian Chinwag #3 - "Rumpetroll" or "Don't Ask Kids For Pancakes."
Norwegian Chinwag #3 - "Rumpetroll" or "Don't Ask Kids For Pancakes."
This week I am joined by my new friend Kamma. We discuss harvesting trees the old way, how we're settling in to the school, and why it might be dangerous to ask a child for potato pancakes.

Norwegian Chinwag #2 - “Finurlig” or “Anna and the Bloody Spoon”
Hello Everyone!
I am so excited that this episode has a guest! I have been at Fosen for a week now and I got to sit down and catch up with one of my fellow students, about our first impressions. Hopefully our enthusiasm covers up any confusion some of you experience as we talk about the oddly summercamp like atmosphere here at Fosen!

Norwegian Chinwag #1
Hello Everyone!
I know some of you are waiting on tenterhooks for the next installment of my scripted series on art that influenced me, but sadly it's going to be a while. I was hoping to have that finished before I left for Norway, but- well, Life happened.
I am going to try something a little bit different for the next few weeks, and if you folks enjoy it, I'll keep doing it. Instead of my usual scripted content, I'm going to be making little weekly mini-updates about what I'm learning and experiencing at Fosen Folkehøgskole. By the time you all hear this first chinwag, I should be there! I'll be sure to let you folks know all about it.
One last thing: If you've got any questions, please send them along, I would love to hear from you!
