As a side note, there is infact a "commercial"-version of Spotify[0], even though i'm not sure whether its available outside of Sweden yet.

Yeah I agree, I am however somewhat surprised that they didn't manage to provide him with vegan meals. I mean it shouldn't be that difficult im sure they already offer vegetarian alternatives.

Very interesting show!

But he didn't go to a maximum security prison at all, infact he was at Västervik a "säkerhetsklass 2" prison. [2]

"Säkerhetsklass 1" would be a maximum security prison, class 3 is the lowest class and those don't even have walls meaning that a class 2 would essentially be a "vanilla" prison.[1]

On top of that in Sweden you only serve two thirds of the time, regardless of crime and behavior. (Not sure if this is a good thing though...)
