Radio Sweden på lätt svenska

What it actually is

Sveriges Radio's short bulletin written for newcomers, pitched a clear step below Klartext in both speed and vocabulary. Episodes are brief, which makes it realistic to listen every day from very early on. Free as a podcast with no account needed. The stories skew toward what affects new arrivals — residency, work, housing, benefits — so it is practical but narrower than general news.
