Sweden gears up for a Midsummer holiday that is going to be a little bit different this year. We hear how and what people should do to stay safe.

Plus, as if a pandemic wasn't enough, officials now are urging people to be cautious while out in nature after several wildfires have broken out in the country. Also, a suspected killer is now in custody accused of a brutal double murder in Linköping from 2004. Hear how a genealogy website helped police track him down. And finally, with many in-person Midsummer celebrations cancelled this year, Sweden's tourism board is setting up a digital one that features some of the days' traditions.
