Amerikanen Reacts to Viral Svenska Klassiker: Det bästa med Rikard Palm

[@ArgaAnders]

Rikard Palm was a SVT treasure! He brought some humanity into national newscasting!! He´s sorely missed, and I for one want him back!!

[@nocturne7371]

Watching the news with Rikard Palm were often very entertaining

[@feliciahallberg3098]

Ja! Tack för att du tog dig tid att reagera😁 Hade tänkt att rekommendera ett klipp där Rikard ringer Tokyo och frågar om en "Earthcake" men såg att några hade redan rekommenderat den!😄

[@Wloppish]

I’m missing a few clips. “Vad har du i pannan Helen?” and “we’ve heard there’s been an earthcake”😆

[@feliciahallberg3098]

Han har så många att det är svårt att få med dom i en video😆 men hoppas verkligen på "earthcake"!

[@NordmanTTV]

Legend! 🤣 The best one with Rikard is the one about the "earth cake" 🤣

[@Barbro247]

Du missade hans bästa bit. Earthcake samtalet till japan.

[@iamapotato]

As a follow up for this, I have to recommend looking at some clips with Christian Olsson from Radiosporten. My personal favorite you will find by searching for "De hoppar från Tokyo till tidens ände!" but even those related to football are great. So descriptive and with so much emotion. I also need to mention "Stampa med Leroy" again, so you can learn to dance like a Swede. I think every Swede my age has done the dance move "Chernobylbarnet spelar pingis" from that video.

[@MrJamesBanana]

And for the best regarding fotball, i have to suggest the video for when Ludwig Augustinsson scored against Mexico

[@Axel-cl1zo]

Stampa med Leroy är en odödlig klassiker! De versioner som finns på youtube nu har runt 4.5 miljoner views tillsammans. I korthet, Jonathan, så är det ett klipp med en ”danskurs” som gjorde enormt avtryck på svenska dansgolv för runt 15 år sedan, och här är länken kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6PGpYCsfryjfZI

[@eh-modo]

Ja, ja, ja! Christian är min absoluta favorit "all times" Hallå, han leker med det svenska språket och han är så otroligt snabb i tungan med sina galet roliga kommentarer.

[@fromSweden4u]

Haha rickard är bäst =)

[@pernillaengvall859]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4OzdKued9aKm9E Du kanske har sett denna, men den är så rolig. Det är Robert Gustavsson på idrottsgalan som spelar en bitter Tony Rickardsson. Helt klart sevärd om du inte redan har sett den!

Penneloope. Cruise.

I'm sorry but your intros are too long. I skip them because of that. If it was shorter i would probably watch it and you'd get your message across. Kärlek och ljus!

I don't remember if you ever made a statement about how you feel about the.. "Negerboll" controversy?.. (or if I ever asked).... I try to ask every African who seem to be interacting with Sweden in some public way their reaction/feeling about it?.. (If you want to know MY position before you say yours:. Please don't, read until after replying your thoughts and feelings, but you may if you want to) ; The expression IS older and wasn't related to ethnicity, but colour, aaand.. the word "Boll" does not have the same double-meaning as the English equivalent, we use "Marble"..I can't see any racial connotation in the CREATION of the word.. nor in it's meaning.. POSSIBLY it leaves the delicacyt open for some crude insensitive jokes, but.. the word is harmless and not based on any racial connotation what-so-ever. Negro /Nero are the words in Spanish and Italian for.. dark brown or black.. If we talk about my own "feelings", then.. I WOULD accept replacing the name.. It is DIFFICULT with such deeply rooted word, AND to ME!!? who used it without a second thought through my entire youth (The formative years).. It would be YET another thing that I probably WOULD use the.. (in my mind) "correct" (in some minds) "old" term.. and.. I don't like to be accused of racism just because I can't program my mind as easily as you could a computer, but also.. "chocolate ball" which is the replacement people are trying to push.. Just doesn't work for me.. primarily because I have been presented with the term BEFORE anyone started questioning the term "Negerboll".. The FIRST time I saw a product being called "Chokladboll".. was when I was.. younger than 9 years old, and I could buy a bag of "chocolate balls" at the store.. a typical candy bag.. and I was fool enough to buy it.. yeah.. it was ordinary chocolate.. with no other flavour than just ordinary milkchocolate... BUT.. it was shaped like footballs.. so.. THAT was called chocolate ball.. and.. there have been at least two other distinct products directly called chocolate balls.. and.. it doesn't even FULLY work as a descriptive term as it also have a distinct clear flavour of coffee.. (and if you ask me, the oats also makes a distinct flavour).. so.. three ingredients.. the only one mentioned is chokolate?.. No.. it's not a DESCRIPTIVE term.. and as a "name" it contests with many other products that have previously had that name... and tbh.. the only product that DESE¤RVED being called "Chocolate ball".. was the the first one I ever saw.. because it was.. chocolate.. formed in the shape of a.. foot-ball...... so.. chocolate?.. yes.. ball.. yes.. anything else?.. no.. If I go even more.. emotional and personal.. I kind of don't.. want to agree with the controversy simply because it kind of would imply that some of my most fond summer memories as a kid.. somehow would be tainted by racism?.. Noooo.. Even if I KNEW some people were called "negroes" I STILL didn't think about THEM being related to anything when my mother called me in from play to offer me squash, cinnamon buns and chocolate balls. In MY perspective the entire idea that this HAS to be a problem (In Sweden) comes from an awesome movie called "Sunes sommar" where.. yes.. Someone was asked by a visiting American basket-ball team was asked what "those" are "called".. and he said.. "We call them ni.. nih...ni...ni..no..noooo.. no.. we call them.. wienerbröd.. Wienerbroaths".. FUNNY joke.. and it DID kind of point out how it can be difficulty in the interface between different cultures.. but.. that isn't the same as this makes anything "wrong".. .. I think there are more ways to look at things.. and this is why I ask.. because.. I don't believe in trying to AVOID offence at ALL costs.. but.. I think that offence- when none is intended- OFTEN can be solved by better understanding.. and.. "Sticks and stones..".. SHOULD be ever prevalent, ENOUGH so we at least can discuss.. terminology.. openly.. so.. IF someone takes offense; You do NOT have to worry about MY view or explanations.. you CAN give me YOUR answer and feelings about it anyway.. (and you CAN judge me over it if you like, OR you can accept my view to actually mean that ~I~ never meant.. nor will mean.. anything about it that you should take offense to).. either way.. it's complicated.. we are all living our own lives.. and this one.. is.. one where I can accept that it isn't automatically perceived as harmless IMMEDIATELY whenever someone finds oue about this tradition/name, but at the same time.. .. It SHOULD (in my mind) be possible to say.. "OH.. no.. that is not what it relates to AT ALL... ".. and.. at the very least think that.. perhaps I am not CURRENTLY under attack, so I can TRY to be part of a more open debate... and.. if anything else fails.. invent a NEW name that is MORE unique than "chocolate ball" that kind of WILL imply that it is something SPECIFIC rather than just chocolate.. in the shape of a ball.
