Let's start with the basics: why vote?
Just when you thought we'd reached peak political podcast, a new one comes along. But this time it's not about the USA or any other world power: come along with Indigo as she votes for the first time in her adoptive country, Norway. And it's not even the national election, but the local one! How important could it be? Turns out, very. Join her and resident Norwegian (no literally, they live together) Sigurd to learn how, when, where, and most importantly why to vote.

Before we can vote, we need to know what the major issues are on the table. What can these parties actually change, and where are they positioning themselves? Sigurd runs us through taxes, schools, healthcare, climate change, and housing (with minimal tangents).
Finally, an episode where Indigo gets to take the reins! Here are all the issues that she wants to know about for this election (some of which, as Sigurd points out, a city government can't do too much about): drugs, sex work, trans and queer issues, and finally...biking.https://www.transmannenlev…
