Don't Drink the Milk – The curious history of things

Introducing: Doomsday bunkers & the Finnish sense of humor from Passport

We're on a season break but we didn't want to leave you hanging. So this week we're bringing you more adventure, revelation and history – this time from the Passport podcast. In this episode, they head deep underground in Helsinki, to dig into the psyche of the happiest nation on Earth and its conflict-ridden past.

We trace the unexpected backstories of everyday things – things that have traveled the world, by force, by chance, or by choice. How did this item or idea change as it moved through different cultures and eras on its way to you? And what surprising truths does its story reveal about our world today?
