• Radio Sweden Weekly: One year after deadly mass shooting in Örebro
    Feb 6 2026

    We visit the town of Örebro, which on Wednesday this week honoured the victims of of Sweden's worst mass shooting in modern times.

    Is it possible to work fewer hours and still get as much done and be happier for it? We look at the issue of the shorter working week which has become topical again.

    And as the 2026 Winter Olympics officially get underway in northern Italy we speak to Swedish Radio Sport's Bengt Skött for an expert preview on Sweden's medal chances.

    Presented by Michael Walsh and Dave Russell.

    Reporter in Örebro: Ulla Engberg

    Produced by Kris Boswell.

  • Radio Sweden Weekly: Lapland Sami, mining and their fears for the future
    Jan 30 2026

    We revisit Arctic Kiruna to hear how over a century of mining and other industries has impacted the reindeer herding indigenous Sami of northern Sweden.

    We meet the renowned Sami textile artist Britta Marakatt-Labba who for years has been depicting Sami mythology and culture through embroidered art.

    We visit Abisko, one of the best places on earth to see the Aurora Borealis, or northern lights.

    And away from Kiruna, in domestic politics, it's been a depressing week for the Liberals.

    Presented by Dave Russell and Michael Walsh.
