<p>I headed over to the YleX radio studios earlier today for a live interview with Heikki Soini and Bikka Puoskari.  I thought we were going to try to figure out why Hip Hop music is popular in Finland or maybe discuss Lady Gaga’s latest releases.  But no, they wanted to talk about the environment and at one point about bodybuilding. (Note to readers, despite Heikki’s assertion that we could both bench press about the same weight, I am not so sure.)  If you want to hear the interview -  yes, it was RADIO not TV – you can click on the following link: <a href="http://areena.yle.fi/audio/575685" target="_blank">http://areena.yle.fi/audio/575685</a></p>
<p>By the way, Heikki is really ticklish, as you can see from the photo below. </p>

<p style="TEXT-ALIGN: left">The interview was a lot of fun, but I turned the tables on them a bit as I brought a mini video recorder with me.  Look for the video in about a week when we have the Youtube channel up and running for my journal.</p>
