Ep 146: Season 5 Premiere! The truth about LinkedIn Local, ballsy New Year Predictions and Joakim Lykke

Welcome to the Season 5 premiere where a lot has happened! We kickstart the episode with solving Brandon's challenge who is struggling with finding a job in Denmark that would fit his skills and education. Gretee Eluri, our Danish job market expert, gives Brandon couple of tips but in a last-minute twist of events, we find out that he just got hired - so hopefully, he'll get back to us and let us know what really worked in his particular case!

Afterwards, we interview a local Danish musician Joakim Lykke who has released his debut single "Born Naked" in November 2019 and is currently on a tour, giving concerts in... people's leaving rooms! If you are interested in having Joakim over, check out the notes below - he still has some dates left and his concerts are free of charge!

We continue the show with revisiting psychic predictions that we've discussed at the beginning of 2019 (Ep 103: Why humans keep on predicting future if they are so often wrong: Predictions for 2019) and try to see how many of them came true. It turns out that the weirdest one actually happens - penguins have indeed invaded the cities and there was a sex scandal in Royal Family! - points to Nicky, the celebrity psychic!

Last but not least, we talk about LinkedIn Local Aarhus, that Anna has finally attended (Marta is a regular ;)). It turns out that most people have chosen the same goals for 2020 and we wonder why is that.

Tune in and listen to the brand new season opening! If you want to let us know what you think, remember to visit https://the5options.com and drop us a message!

Song of the week: "Born Naked" by Joakim Lykke

Joakim Lykke is a wild but also brittle and fragile, 41-year-old with lots of musical experience. He sees himself as a performer, frontman and singer - and has more than 300 live gigs behind him - with all the insight and experience it provides. He sings - but also plays the guitar and writes his own songs. The influences are bands like Counting Crows, +LIVE+, Matchbox Twenty, R.E.M and Kashmir, all of whom, to some extent, are present in Joakim's songwriting.

In November 2019 Joakim has released the first single “Born Naked” from his upcoming debut album. He is currently playing his #WinterTour2020, which consists of 15 booked “stuekoncerter” where he performs intimate solo-concerts in peoples living rooms. He is planning to do 15 shows from January 1st. thru March 30th - and I still have open dates for people to book. Concerts are free of charge so grab your chance today and book Joakim here: [email protected]
