Episode 1: Weldon and Chesney in Masks

Here it is! The first episode of American on the Outside! Join Weldon and Chesney as they talk about the difficulties of speaking, listening, and trying to learn a second language while wearing masks, what the pandemic has meant for personal space, and what Europe is like without American tourists.

Curious about some of the things we’re talking about?
Check out how to really say “rødgrød med fløde” ([ˈʁœðˀˌɡ̊ʁœðˀ mɛ ˈfløːð̩] for all you International Phonetic Alphabet nerds) and let us know how Chesney did on her pronunciation. Her daughter still thinks it’s rubbish.
Make some rødgrød med fløde to try yourself. It’s the perfect summer dessert!
