This week, part two of our conversation with Joel Cole. He's an American artist who moved to the Faroe Islands four years ago. We'll talk about the artistic community in the Faroes, and how an artist who works with wood gets his raw materials in a country almost entirely devoid of trees. Then we'll head out to the village of Skala and look back at a brighter past.

This week, we talk to Joel Cole, he's an American artist who first visited the Faroe Islands more than 25 years ago, and now calls the islands his home. In part one of our discussion, we talk about the long journey that took him to the Faroe Islands. Then we visit the coolest club in the Faroes and spend time at a mustache contest. (Spoiler: We don't win.)

This week, we tour one of the biggest churches in the Faroe Islands with the man who designed it. Albert Isfeld is one of most prominent architects in the Faroe Islands, and he also offers his opinions of Faroese buildings, and how life on the islands is changing.

Once again this week, we're wandering the streets of Torshavn. But unlike last week, it's no longer aimless. We meet up with Jogvan A Dul and tag along as he takes pictures of the Faroese capital. He takes this same series of photos almost every morning, then posts them onto Facebook.

This week, we wander the streets of Torshavn in the morning looking for a mysterious man named Jogvan. Ok, he's not that mysterious, but still, his location was certainly a mystery to us. During our quest, we'll take in the sights and sounds of Torshavn before it has fully woken up.

This week we stroll the National Mall in Washington, DC with Sigvor Laksa. Sigvor is from the Faroe Islands and manages the woman who is arguably the most famous singer from the Faroes (Eivor). In this show, we wander from the Lincoln Memorial to the White House and talk mostly about the United States, but looking at it from a Faroese perspective.

On this week's show, Heri Simonsen interviews Hungarian journalist Gabor Lantos about his visit to the Faroe Islands. Then we head out to the breathtaking village of Funningur.

This week, part three of our special report from the Nordic Cool festival in Washington, DC. We hang out in the Kennedy Center's Grand Foyer and talk with Urd Johannesen about the Nordic House in Torshavn, which is kind of like the Faroese Kennedy Center. We'll also hear some music from Yggdrasil, which is the jazz band fronted by Kristian Blak. Then we'll end with some final thoughts on the Nordic Cool Festival.

This week, more coverage from the Kennedy Center's Nordic Cool festival. We've got music and conversation with Eivor, who is arguably the most famous singer from the Faroe Islands. We'll also hear from Guðrun Rógvadóttir about the founding of Faroese knitwear company Gudrun & Gudrun.

This week, we tour the Kennedy Center's Nordic Cool Festival. We talk to Xerxes Unvala, who works in the Kennedy Center's international programming office,and look up at "Migration" by Trondur Patursson. Then we wander around the upstairs exhibition space.
