Thomas receives a 'sharp order' to start listening to a specific author on BookBeat—what makes this recommendation so urgent?
The episode opens with Gusten Dahlin framing a book recommendation as a 'sharp order' rather than a tip, directed at co-host Thomas Wilbacher. Dahlin mentions that Tutto Balutto is sponsored by BookBeat, which he describes as a leading provider of audiobooks with over a million titles. He clarifies that this is not just a suggestion but an urgent directive for Wilbacher to follow. Dahlin then notes that Wilbacher isn't the only one who has left Expressen with strong writing skills, referencing other former journalists who have become authors. He names Mattias Lyr and Patrik Ekvall as examples of Expressen alumni who have built successful writing careers. Dahlin contrasts them with Pascal Engman, whom he declares his absolute favorite crime writer. He admits he hasn't explored Engman's work extensively but is aware of his success post-Expressen. Dahlin explains that Engman's books feature the protagonist Vanessa Frank, whom he loves, describing the novels as intense page-turners that are hard to stop reading or listening to. He reiterates the order for Wilbacher and listeners to start listening to Engman's books via BookBeat. The episode shifts to promoting BookBeat's offer: 60 days free for new customers using the code Tutto Balotto, with no commitment required after the trial period. Dahlin mentions that this promotion aligns with the upcoming summer and World Cup season, ideal for listening to books in leisure settings. The episode wraps up by thanking BookBeat for the sponsorship.
