SVT's rhyme hut closes after popular Christmas chat

SVT has provided last-minute help with Christmas rhymes in a live chat featuring well-known profiles, as an alternative to AI bots. The chat, named Julrimsakuten, has now closed after numerous user queries and creative suggestions. Participants include comedians, artists, and a meteorologist who contributed fun rhymes.

SVT Nyheter hosted a special chat session on December 23, 2025, to assist viewers with Christmas rhymes. Rather than turning desperately to AI bots, users received personalized help from profiles including Branne Pavlovic, comedian and host; Kerstin Ljungström, artist and songwriter; Nils Holmqvist, SVT meteorologist; Frida Lund, food creator and podcaster; and Emilia Rehnberg, actress and comedian.

The chat, titled Julrimsakuten, drew many with specific requests. One user, Ulf, sought a rhyme for a sun vacation gift to his wife: "Neither something to wrap or stand, but with views that sparkle and memories that last, with warmth, calm, and horizon, a week where life feels extra on point!" Annelie thanked for the assistance and noted she used AI for her own rhyme.

Other examples included a double rhyme for a waffle iron and teacups to a sister: "Here's something for crispy waffles, so you can skip your lunch with falukorv. Along with this, elegant cups, perfect when you dip the biscuit in the drink." For a lava lamp in a gift game, it was suggested: "Not fish and not cat, but something that lives its nightlife gladly." Nils Holmqvist contributed a rhyme for an ergonomic pillow against snoring: "Your snoring drives me to madness, this is your last chance. If you sleep badly with this, there'll be no more romance."

The session ended with thanks to all participants and holiday wishes. SVT emphasizes its commitment to factual and impartial reporting, even in light-hearted features like this.
