Is She Weird or Just Nordic?
with Pernille Haaland
Critically acclaimed comedian Pernille Haaland has always wondered: what’s actually “weird” about her, and what’s just… Nordic? Why have so many ex-boyfriends assumed she was autistic? Honestly—it doesn’t matter. She dumped them all… in her mind. Sort of.
By now, it’s far too late to change anyway. Luckily, that’s never stopped Pernille Haaland from being unapologetically herself—and hilariously so.
Is She Weird or Just Nordic? is a solo comedy podcast about life’s awkward encounters, misunderstandings and the messy joy of being human. Think of it as grabbing life by the horns… of an IKEA goat, armed only with poorly translated instructions.
Each week, Pernille unpacks stories from her life up north and on tour as a stand-up, drops unsolicited wisdom (or nonsense?!), reacts to the ridiculousness of the world, and reminds us we’re not alone out here—just flailing together, one awkward laugh at a time. Skål.

In this episode, I kick things off by wishing you happy celebrations—whatever you celebrate. Christmas, not Christmas, something else entirely… honestly, as long as you’re okay, that’s what matters.
Then things get a little weird—in a good way. I start unpacking my thoughts for 2026 and accidentally (or maybe intentionally) walk you straight into the early stages of my next show. This episode is basically me thinking out loud: outlining ideas, questioning them, wrestling with them, and showing you what the creative process actually looks like when a comedian is trying to build something new.
If you’re into comedy and curious about how jokes, themes, and shows are born, this one’s for you. And if you’re not, it’s still entertaining because I definitely reveal too much—as usual—to a level that’s mildly dangerous. Don’t worry though, I’ve got my seatbelt on. You might want to buckle yours too.
There’s a lot of ranting, a lot of honesty, and probably more transparency than is advisable. I don’t usually reveal all my secrets, but this time I kind of lay everything out—nice and tidy, just the way you like it.
As always, I’d love your feedback. DM me anytime—I genuinely love connecting with listeners. And don’t forget to like, share, subscribe, and leave a review. Good or bad, I’ll read it. I’ve got thick skin. Mama enjoys a good counterpoint.
Alright—let’s go.
