#5 Trains, Trams and Time Anxiety with guest

#5 Trains, Trams and Time Anxiety with guest

If there’s one stereotype about Switzerland that’s absolutely true, it’s this: the Swiss are punctual. And their transportation system? A masterpiece of precision. In this episode, Tiffany and Nisha dive into the world-class Swiss public transport network — trains, trams, buses, gondolas — and explore how Swiss punctuality shapes everyday life, work culture, and even personal habits.

The episode also features a special guest, Daniel, in his 40s and proudly without a driver’s license. He explains why he never got one, how he navigates life in Switzerland and abroad, and whether the famous Trevor Noah & Roger Federer “Grand Train Tour” skit is accurate.

If you’re adjusting to Swiss timetables, learning to trust the SBB app, or managing your own “time anxiety,” this episode will help you understand — and appreciate — the beauty of Swiss precision.
