Finland
Tim’s take
He treats Finland mainly as a foil for American excess, riffing off a happiness-ranking article to contrast Finnish contentment and a strong safety net with America's manic chase for fame and money 1:26 5:36. He's ambivalent about whether that's actually better, wondering if a little house and a little fish is worth giving up something like Elvis 9:17. He undercuts the picture by mocking a government-funded Finnish artist as proof that all that contentment produces bad art 16:55 27:16.
