The presenter and artist Roope Salminen says Time-outin the podcast Last year, he found out in therapy that his father’s relationship is a wound.

– I felt that my father was not proud of me in the way it should be, Salminen opens.

Salminen says he would like his father Eppu Salminen to praise him for things that have gone well. He says he has seen his father less in recent years because Salminen’s father has six young children himself.

Salminen says that he has made a one and a half hour call to his father.

– I said it would be really important to me to listen now. And you wouldn’t adjust anything else at the same time, but you would just chat with me.

Salmi begins to cry when telling the story.

– (I said) it would be really important to me that you hear how good a father I am. When I tell these things about how I have been with my son, I’ll tell them because you say, “joke, you sound like you have a terribly good relationship and you are a good faija,” Salminen describes a call.

Salminen says that his best qualities are how good he is.

– My father’s relationship is my most intimate relationship. The fact that it was not seen and loved, and I did not become loved, it rubbed and hurt a lot.

It was only when Salminen stopped by the matter that he dared to say his need out loud.

– It was well received and everything went well after all, Salminen concludes.

Recently Salminen said he had engaged his loved one Vivian Nickin with. The couple celebrates their wedding in the summer of 2026.

Salminen told Iltalehti that he was surprised by his father’s reaction to the wedding news.

– There have been happy or sad things in my life, Faija has always been a bedrock that has been calmly about things and has always been able to return to her.

“I was really surprised that he started crying when he heard about getting married,” Salminen said.
