S5 E7: You Won’t Believe What the Dutch Googled!

What were the Dutch really up to this past year? 👀 In this episode of Stuff Dutch People Like, we dive deep into the wonderfully weird world of Dutch search histories. From bizarre health questions to hyper-specific obsessions, political dilemmas, and questions that only make sense if you’ve lived in the Netherlands a little too long. Join us as we unpack the quirks, curiosities, and collective anxieties of a nation — one search bar at a time. Equal parts cultural anthropology and affectionate roast, this episode proves (once again) that when it comes to being wonderfully peculiar… the Dutch truly deliver.
