What do dogs, Swedish small talk and national identity have in common? More than you might think. At Way Out West, Ångestpodden meets journalist, author and Invandrare för svenskar co-creator Elaf Ali for a conversation about the funny, frustrating and deeply human experience of living between cultures, inspired by her latest book, First-Generation Swede.

Ångestpodden is the podcast that tackles how we’re really doing: anxiety, mental health and life in general, all with warmth, humor and honesty. During their live conversation at the festival, the duo share personal stories, moments of recognition and plenty of laughs, while opening up space for the important conversations about something that many of us feel but few of us talk about. A live conversation that moves you, inspires you and brings people together.

WOW Talks is presented by Storytel and the talks will also be available afterwards in the Storytel app.

Listen to Ångestpodden Live in Slottsskogen on Friday August 14th.
