Listen "Pool Talk"
Episode Synopsis
Swimming pools are at the core of everyday life in Iceland: every neighbourhood, small and big towns all have their own local pools that are the equivalent of cafes or bars elsewhere. Small talk is A-OK and everyone mingles as they let the day's tensions melt away.
Our brown-black bodies however are both invisible and hypervisible depending on the context - nowhere is this more pronounced than at the local pools.
Put on a kettle and settle in as we swap stories of our pool experiences in Reykjavik and around the country.
