The Raisin at the Hot Dog's End

By: Jonas & Lydia
  • Summary

  • Your homo/negro report from Iceland. Join Jonas and Lydia, two Texan-Americans living in Iceland, as they crack wise about what they find noteworthy about their adopted country. From gobbling pickled ram’s testicles and public pooping to social commentary and tips for visitors (what’s that lurking at the bottom of the Blue Lagoon? Nothing, but there totally used to be). Get to know Iceland—the good, the bad and the sheepy—with Jonas and Lydia.

    Editor’s Note:

    We did a lot of tapping and shaking of Jonas’ kitchen table in this episode which makes for a rumbly listen but let’s be honest, y’all aren’t listening for the excellent sound quality and editing.

    Yes, it’s been almost a year since the last episode but their chaotic recording and uploading schedule is just part of their charm. Catch up with Lydia and Jonas’ shenanigans as they deal with rising crime levels, play D&D, dodge tourists and mispronounce Icelandic words in a brave new post covid Iceland. Spoiler alert: It’s just like pre covid Iceland, only with more tourists than ever before and a rising number of covid infections. Yay! 

    Outside, there is horizontal rain but inside there are yummy baked goods at these fine establishments in downtown Reykjavík and the KEX Hostel Pub Quiz almost every Thursday.

  • #32 Hot Vax Summer or Fruity and Full-Bodied
    Aug 20 2021

    Jonas and Lydia spend yet another summer on The Rock but still manage to keep themselves entertained, visiting the newest most trendiest place in Iceland, Sky Lagoon, and exploring the Eastfjords. And no, you’re not losing your hearing, that high pitched whirring sound is just Lydia’s refrigerator.
