For Whom the Cowbell Tolls

Radiolab

Radiolab is on a curiosity bender. We ask deep questions and use investigative journalism to get the answers. A given episode might whirl you through science, legal history, and into the home of someone halfway across the world. The show is known for innovative sound design, smashing information into music. It is hosted by Lulu Miller and Latif Nasser.

When Nancy Holten was 8 years old her mom put her in a moving van. She fell asleep, woke up in Switzerland, and she's been there ever since. Nancy is big into animal rights, crystals, and various forms of natural and holistic healing. She’s also a viral sensation: the Dutch woman apparently so annoying, her Swiss town denied her citizenship. In this episode we go to the little village of Gipf-Oberfrick to meet Nancy, talk with the town, and ask the question: what does it mean and what does it take to belong to a place?
This episode was reported by Kelly Prime and was produced by Kelly Prime and Annie McEwen.

A tasty note from Latif: Towards the end of the story, I casually mentioned a place called Greg's Poutine in Toronto.  Turns out, it's actually called <a href="http://smokespoutinerie.com/">Smoke's Poutinerie</a>. (Confused it with <a href="https://nowtoronto.com/locations/gregs-ice-cream-distillery-district/">Greg's Ice Cream</a>.) Go. It's delicious.
