So here is the first show in a while. I am once again joined by Marie, by request, and as so often happens when she chimes in, the show is a bit longer than usual. But that only compensates for the VERY short show last week!

On today's show I am joined by Marie, but it is still a somewhat regular PBP, so it's not a Bed Time Stories. We talk about stuff like mandatory drug testing in schools and of course about elks in swimming pools.

Bringing you a short one today. To much in my schedule I'm afraid, and also an added cold coming on, making my throat sore. Pretty much nohing went the way I had planned it this episode, but it still turned out a pretty nice show! I hope you think so too.

Hi out there in wonderland. It's been a very constructive week, and I hope to be able to bring you quite interesting news in the near future!

As I publish this show I read in the papers that Iraqi officials dismiss the shootings at the swedish aircraft taking off from Iraq last week, so maybe they just saw a wishing star or something... Just thought you'd like to know.

Welcome back to a new BTS.


Sorry about the delay, but we have had major problems with our ISP. They haven't been able to deliver a stable internet connection for quite some time now.

Well, here it is at last anyway, and the list of tourist sights below, will soon be updated too, I promise!

Places we've been to and seen:
Visby
Roma Monastery Ruin
Krusmyntagården
Lumellunda Caves
Strandcaféet in Ljugarn
Clarion Hotel Wisby

Sorry about most of the links above being in swedish (I can't control the content of these external sites of course), but I hope you can navigate enough to get something out of them. Images in swedish is called "bilder" if that is what you are looking for on these sites.

Welcome to the very last show of the Polarbear Podcast before both the upcoming wedding and our 4 week vaccation! On this show I talk to you about the import of booze into sweden and how that has affected thousands of swedes. We also talk a bit about the environment and at last we have a new section from Michelle! Also we check in on Marie as she finalizes the plans for the wedding - she's a bit stressed out...

I hope you all have a great summer and I will talk to you again, when it's time for the next Polarbear Podcast sometime in the beginning of august!

Show number 100 is here - released a few days earlier so you won't have to wait for it - marking a milestone in the Polarbear Podcasts history! It focuses a lot around PodCamp Europe, but also on other things, such as why Sweden is different in the summer compared to the winter and why dark beer is so hard to find at swedish restaurants.

I also wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone who made PodCamp Europe possible and say hi to all my new friends, so here it is:

It's warm. REALLY warm! As I write this I read 34°C on the thermometer, which translates into 93°F. And the time is right now half past six in the evening. OMG! This is incredible. I will go out for my last and final walk in the International Walk-Off pretty soon and considering the temperature I will probably loose about 10 kilos...only today.

So we're off on week #5 . I managed to win last week, but it was pretty much on walkover since BC had been bnusy doing other stuff. And this week I've been challenged with the weather. It's been raining like crazy so there hasn't been much walking going on. And I've experienced an increasing pain in my lower back, that didn't go away until Saturday. Odd!!!

Mon: 3,2 km
Tue: 3,9 km (Rain)
Wed: No walking! Rain
Thu: No walking! Rain
Fri: No walking! Rain

So we're starting off week #4 now after having taken 2 weeks off from walking and letting my shins repair themselves. Mission accomplished! But I'm off to a slow start, cause I don������¤t want to injure myself again!

Mon: 3,7 km
Tue: May 1st is a day for protests, not walking! :-D
Wed: 1,1 km
Thu: 2,9 km
Fri: 3,8 km
Sat: Too much other shite
Sun: 2,4 km

TOTAL: 13,9 km
 
Worse than previous weeks, I know, but I've been taking it a bit easy as not to injure myself again! It was tough though, getting back on track. I don't know why. It feels as if I have lead in my feet, and my back... it's killing me! Well, there you have it anyway.

But the fun thing is that I WON!!!!!!!!!!

So we're starting off week #3 now...
I lost week 1 and 2, but now I'm really going to win this! Just check out the first leg! Are you with me? Then send me emails encouraging me, cause I really need that!

Mon: 9,78 km (6.07 miles)
Tue: 6,29 km (3.9 miles) My legs hurt from yesterday...! :-)
Wed: 1,1 km Mission aborted!
Thu: X
Fri: X
Sat: X
Sun: X

TOTAL: 16,07 km

Due to problems with shin splints I had to abort this weeks walk. I have been in contact with Big Chowder and he too has paused his efforts until I get well again. I will be trying out to walk again on monday and we'll see how that goes. So much for being a tough guy!

:-D

So here are the distances walked in the international walk-off week #1 (starting April 2nd 2007) by me. The rules are set and we are allowed to count 5 out of 7 days of the week for the weekly total, which will then be added until week #8, but I thought I'd be honest and show you my every day progress, so this post will be updated EVERY DAY, so check it out. I also added a link every day to the actual route I've taken for anyone who wants to go all detaily.

Mon: 4,66 km (2.89 miles)  Route in Gmap...
Tue: 4,21 km (2.62 miles) Route in Gmap...
Wed: 4,1 km (2.51 miles) Route in Gmap...
Thu: :-(
Fri: 1 km (0.62 miles)
Sat: :-(
Sun: 4,0,6 km (2.50 miles) Route in Gmap...

For the 3rd time in the history of the show, I am sorry to have to inform you that the Polarbear Podcast will be a bit late. All this due to reasons totally beyond my control (often meaning vulcanos, hurricanes and earth quakes but here; lack of time).

I will try to have a show out there for you by wednesday lunch (swedish time). It's all in the process, but just not finalized yet, and I can't record when my kids are sleeping in the next room. Such is life!

And d**n those PTA-meetings stealing time from my podcasting...!

Welcome back to what might be the last BTS ever!
I managed to get Marie into the studio last week where I pinned her down for 40 minutes, which was enough time to make a show. It turned out so good that she now says that she just might be back again...!
Why don't you send her an email and beg - it could help. :-)

Just wanted to let you guys know that I will be a few days late perhaps with this weeks show. You know that I'm very picky about releasing the shows every tuesday morning, so this hurts me a bit.

The reason for this is my daughter, who was supposed to go and stay with her mom now for two weeks today, giving me the entire evening off to do the show, but then decided she had a little too many daddy-hugs left so she wanted to stay for one more evening. Said and done! Didn't take to much pursuasion. If you'd ever seen her you would understand why I just can't say no to her on a request like that.

I hope you can respect my descision to pospone the show one or days because of this. A new show will be out as soon as I can record it!

In he meantime, check out the "dark side" of the Polarbear Podcast, at Andy's Playground.

Keep it real.

/ Andy

Welcome back to the first show of 2007!

I have decided to shorten the shownotes, since I guess you prefer listening to the show compared to reading this. For the remains of 2007 there will only be vital information here in the shownotes!
