The James Swanwick Show

Is a lunchtime drink OK? I’m in Denmark Copenhagen, and it’s interesting to see how many people like to have lunchtime beers. I’m just walking alongside the water front in Nyhavn, and people sitting at the cafes and shops either have a pint of beer or a glass of wine on their table. I actually remember when I was living in London, and would go out to lunch with my co-workers…. We would have a pint of beer at lunch on occasion, but would almost always be falling asleep at work later.  Why do we do it? Numerous studies have shown the delirious effects that alcohol has on work performance. But people still choose otherwise. Enjoy the show.

Imagine country that encourages you to drink responsibly. Sounds strange right? Especially coming from the United States, where we’re constantly bombarded with alcohol and liquor ads from the time we wake to when we go to bed. I’m here in Stockholm Sweden, and I’m joined by a friend of mine, Mia. And we are inside an alcohol store called “systembolagt” which is the only place that Swedes can buy alcohol for home consumption. It’s government run and specifically designed to make sure Swedes drink responsibly. Listen in as Mia shares her knowledge of why it was designed in the first place, and how it has helped many people throughout the country lead better lives. Enjoy the show!

Time remains undefeated. I'm in Oslo, Norway today and I just finished looking at 3 incredible Viking ships that have been unearthed. The Vikings, who were once a prominent force, are now just an ancient memory of the past… So just do it, because life will soon be an ancient memory for all of us.  Enjoy the show.

Hello! I’m joining you today from Copenhagen, Denmark. And I’m here with an old friend of mine, Jeannie Mortensen, who I knew as a Hollywood correspondent back in Los Angeles. We met in 2003 when we were interviewing Matt Damon for the movie “Stuck on You.” Because I was wondering through Scandinavia, I reached out and was happy to reconnect with Jeannie, since it’s been almost 9 years. Listen in as we walk through the beautiful city and talk about our past lives in the entertainment industry, why she decided to move back home, and what she’s up to now.  Enjoy the show!

Do you feel weighed down by the amount of things in your life? Is your mind racing  to keep up with your busy schedule? Well, today is all about how to remove the clutter from your brain and your physical space. We’ve all got clutter floating around…whether it’s worrying about business projects, what to cook for dinner, or the resent date you went on. And then there’s the physical clutter, such as a messy room, disorder in the kitchen, and files scattered all over the desk. Interestingly some say the clutter in ones one house/personal space directly mirrors the clutter and chaos going on internally. So today I’m happy to welcome Miriam Ortiz y Pino onto the show. She is a certified professional organizer, and has been helping people de-clutter their overwhelming lives for over a decade. From working with artists, entrepreneurs, politicians, professional, and multimillionaires, she’s seen amazing transformations in people’s day-to-day lives. Enjoy the show!
