‘What are you doing in Denmark’ is the podcast that helps you make Denmark make sense.
We welcome back Mike Walsh to explain the fascinating story of Denmark’s newest land border with an unexpected neighbor – Canada!
Mike takes us through the discovery and exploration of the remote Hans Island, a series of back-and-forth disputes between the two nations, and how a light-hearted “whiskey war” eventually resulted in the world’s third-shortest land border. It’s a wild story of history that is
quintessentially Danish (and Canadian) passive-aggressive diplomacy. Mike and Derek cover this weirdly fascinating tale of
geographical adventure through humor and unexpected facts that feel stranger than fiction.
