00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:04,639
I hope you have your bags ready, as we are going on a specific

2
00:00:04,839 --> 00:00:09,439
trip to Sweden today. Thanks to
the podcast, Odin' s Patch welcome

3
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:13,320
you to the other side of the
microphone. On the other side of the

4
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,879
microphone, a project by Jorge Marín
grandson in which you will find your daily

5
00:00:18,359 --> 00:00:22,679
ration of metapodcasting with news, events, tools or episodes of opinion in just

6
00:00:22,679 --> 00:00:30,399
ten minutes. Ten minutes, ten
minutes. Welcome to the daily meta podcast

7
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,880
par excellence, the one that comes
to your players in small pills of between

8
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:41,000
ten and fifteen minutes daily to bring
you news, events, curiosities, episodes

9
00:00:41,439 --> 00:00:45,079
of opinion and also recommended podcasts,
as every Monday I am Jorge Marín,

10
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:50,200
and every Monday I bring you a
new podcast or several podcasts at once so

11
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:54,159
that you continue to expand your subscriptions
so that you never, ever, never

12
00:00:54,159 --> 00:00:58,399
leave without podcasts to listen to.
And today I want to start the episode

13
00:00:58,439 --> 00:01:03,039
by revisiting Nordic mythology, because I
don' t know if you know the

14
00:01:03,079 --> 00:01:06,840
case of Odin, the father of
all the gods, the one who ripped

15
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,959
one eye, specifically his left eye, to obtain infinite knowledge. That was,

16
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:15,480
let' s say, the blackmail
that made him pamper so that he

17
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,200
could lean into his well and thus
grasp all the infinite knowledge of the whole

18
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:23,719
universe, of all mythology. And, well, a small Nordic account that

19
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,760
also gives name to the podcast that
I bring to you today. Today I

20
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:33,920
want to talk to you about Odin' s patch, the project of Rubén

21
00:01:34,359 --> 00:01:38,560
Pascual, an ophthalmologist of Spanish origin
who moved to Sweden and once there decided

22
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,239
to start recording a podcast. Let' s say to compare society, culture

23
00:01:42,439 --> 00:01:48,640
and living, being a resident of
Spain comparing it to being a resident of

24
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,959
Sweden. Thus, comparing culture,
society and the difference between these two countries

25
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:59,280
which, although we are close,
logically differentiate us from many things that we

26
00:01:59,319 --> 00:02:04,040
all belong to Europe, because Spanish
society is in one way, Swedish society

27
00:02:04,079 --> 00:02:07,919
is from another. And finally,
in this podcast he talks about health,

28
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:15,919
culture, society, gastronomy, but
also about his personal aspect. It is

29
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:21,479
a kind of personal diary that week
after week brings us both thoughtful episodes,

30
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,120
as, for example, the last
one that tells us about music. The

31
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:29,919
music that has changed in recent years, although about ten, fifteen, twenty

32
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:34,840
years ago, we all bought CDs
and make a few more tapes and make

33
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:40,000
a few more vinyls. But nowadays
no one or almost no one buys music

34
00:02:40,199 --> 00:02:45,479
in physical format for not talking about
movies or series or even video games,

35
00:02:46,199 --> 00:02:47,120
video games. Maybe they' ll
save a little bit. But let'

36
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:53,719
s say delegate to the streaming platforms
this power and now it' s becoming

37
00:02:53,759 --> 00:02:57,080
a little bit ours against this chapter. The truth has led me to reflect

38
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,599
a little, as did the previous
one, which I devoted to taxes in

39
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:06,599
the case of Sweden. Well,
the taxes are progressive, although in Spain

40
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,840
we also have something similar, but
he compares us how it is taxed in

41
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:16,000
this country, unlike in Spain.
And it does a little reflection on how

42
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:23,159
much is worth working, because already
from x amount of money raised, because

43
00:03:23,199 --> 00:03:25,599
you have to tax more, diputate
less. And, well, I recommend

44
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:30,000
you listen to this chapter as well. How I also recommend you to listen

45
00:03:30,039 --> 00:03:32,599
to the previous one dedicated to Swedish
restaurants, which was why I arrived at

46
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,800
the Odin Patch. It turns out
that Dani Aragay, through his podcast doing

47
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:45,120
the Swedish, asked a question to
Rubén Pascual on Odin' s patch and

48
00:03:45,159 --> 00:03:50,560
recommended his podcast. So, thanks
to this little game Dani recommended Rubén.

49
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,360
Rubén has recommended another podcast and this
little game has motivated me to recommend Din

50
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:59,719
' s patch for you to listen
to. In this case, in the

51
00:03:59,759 --> 00:04:05,400
Swedish restaurants they tell us a curious
way that they have in Sweden to charge.

52
00:04:05,919 --> 00:04:10,360
Let' s say to all the
people who want to eat in a

53
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,840
restaurant, to all the customers who
are going to go through these hotels,

54
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,160
they do it in a way quite
different from Spain, although in Spain I

55
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:23,720
think we could not apply it for
different reasons. In fact, here comes

56
00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:27,240
another podcaster that is José in front
of the client who gives Ruben more reasons

57
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:32,839
not to say the reasons why this
system could not be applied in Spain.

58
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,839
But, well, I' m
talking about the DN patch and I don

59
00:04:38,879 --> 00:04:44,959
' t want to go over all
this in chapters of ten, fifteen twenty

60
00:04:44,959 --> 00:04:47,879
- five. There are no more
than twenty- five minutes. There you

61
00:04:47,879 --> 00:04:51,519
will have weekly episodes, I say
between fifteen and twenty, twenty- five

62
00:04:51,519 --> 00:04:58,519
minutes. With this comparison of Spanish
society in Swedish society it has chapters of

63
00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:01,639
everything, from the fauna urna,
the thermal sensation that you live in a

64
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:06,639
country like Sweden, the ideology of
that old Europe that you live there.

65
00:05:08,519 --> 00:05:13,560
Being a foreigner in Spain and being
a foreigner in Sweden, depending on the

66
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,759
use of the mobile phone. In
short, as you always see, the

67
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,079
fact of the comparison between Spain and
Sweden is present, but it is still

68
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:24,439
a personal diary, a personal diary
that from here I recommend if they steal

69
00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:28,560
a greeting from Spain to go to
Sweden. I' m gonna send you

70
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,199
a bunch of listeners. Thanks to
the Polding that you will find in the

71
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,079
notes of the episode so that whatever
podcast platform you hear or rather, that

72
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:41,600
you consume you can listen to the
Odin patch, the podcast recommended on this

73
00:05:41,639 --> 00:05:49,639
Monday Podcastern Top. And now I
say goodbye and how every day I go

74
00:05:49,680 --> 00:06:00,000
back to that place where you are
right now on the other side of the microphone.
