In this episode, we’re going to get super geeky and tell how Risto and Nahlah ended up traveling to the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis to do sauna research in their archives. We decided to go on this daddy-daughter adventure after Risto discovered the Matti Kaups archive while reading the book The Opposite of Cold. Join us this week as we recount our adventures in the Matti Kaups archive!   Finnish pancake (lettu) recipe: https://beta.locals.com/thesaunatrail/feed?post=5587333  Michael Nordskog & Aaron Hautala in a series of Youtube videos about The Opposite of Cold: https://youtu.be/li9bnmduyz0, https://youtu.be/E1LU9FdNzIQ, https://youtu.be/PyBeX_TKw5A  Al's Breakfast Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al%27s_Breakfast  El Burrito Mercado website: https://elburritomercado.com  Music Dirge of the Night by Tied With Twine Website https://www.thesaunatrail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thesaunatrail Facebook https://www.facebook.com/thesaunatrail TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@thesaunatrail Locals https://thesaunatrail.locals.com (00:00) Introduction(02:28) Michael Nordskog's book The Opposite of Cold(05:37) Who was Matti Kaups?(8:21) Our trip to the archive(10:22) Minneapolis adventures and Al's breakfast(11:14) Interesting things we discovered in the archive (17:51) Public saunas in North America circa 1920(27:05) Outro and preview of future episodes
