Skavlan gets 'idiotic' question from Swedish skier

During a Skavlan interview, Ebba Andersson said the most idiotic question he asked was about Frida Karlsson's absence from the Olympic 5km race.

In a recent episode of Skavlan, Swedish cross‑country stars Ebba Andersson and Frida Karlsson were guests. Andersson recalled that the host’s question about Karlsson’s absence from the Olympic 5km race was “the most idiotic” he’d ever received.

Andersson, who won gold and three silvers at the Games, said she would have liked Karlsson to compete, noting that elite sport thrives on challenges. Karlsson, who earned two golds and a silver, was sidelined by illness.
