Nordic Mythology Podcast Folgen

This week is another of our new old school Show and Tell Episodes. Just to remind people of the format both our hosts Mathias and Daniel each bring a few topics and proceed to do a really good deep dive discussion on them. This week's topics are: Why are Vikings so popular in South America? And what were the actual living conditions of people in the Viking Age? Also, a special guest appearance by Mathias's dog barking at a moose that trapped him in his house; it's complicated. Please bear with our sound this week as Dan is breaking down and moving his studio and Mathias is getting over being sick. With any luck everything will be back to normal soon!Check us out on Instagram at: www.instagram.com/nordicmythologypodcastAnd if you like what we do, and would like to be in the audience for live streams of new episodes to ask questions please consider supporting us on Patreon:www.patreon.com/NordicMythologyPodcastIf you would like to join our bi-weekly watch-alongs where Mathias and Daniel watch and commentate along with the popular series Vikings, or get access to our special Storytime episodes covering the saga literature, then all you have to do is join our Patron.

This week Mathias and Daniel are sitting down with  Uffe Berenth one of the brilliant artists behind Ginnungagap Art, a tattoo studio specialising in Nordic Tattoos, Viking Tattoos and Rune Tattoos; Uffe also has a special personal connection with the god Týr. Together with the boys he'll be discussing the spirituality behind the tattooing process, whether or not Vikings tattooed, and Daniel somehow managing to get stuck in his own grinder at work this week (he's fine, it's complicated). It's a lovely discussion and we hope to have Uffe on again soon, enjoy!Also, Mathias is still getting over being ill, which is why his voice sounds so raspy. He should be back to normal by next week. You can check out Uffe's art or book a tattoo at: Ginnungagap.artYou can also find us on Instagram at: www.instagram.com/nordicmythologypodcastAnd if you like what we do, and would like to be in the audience for live streams of new episodes to ask questions please consider supporting us on Patreon:www.patreon.com/NordicMythologyPodcastIf you would like to join our bi-weekly watch-alongs where Mathias and Daniel watch and commentate along with the popular series Vikings, or get access to our special Storytime episodes covering the saga literature, then all you have to do is join our Patron.

This week Mathias and Daniel are sitting down with Ben Mudge, Ben catapulted into the limelight in 2017 with his "Thursday Thorsday '' Instagram posts and his uncanny resemblance to the popular Marvel character played by Chris Hemsworth. As a person with Cystic Fibrosis Ben used this attention two raise awareness for the genetic disorder as well as inspire people to live more active and healthy lives; something he continues to do today as a personal trainer and nutritionist. Together with the boys Ben will be delving deep into the character of Thor and crucially the differences between his Marvel and Mythological portrayal in a new segment we're calling, "Marvel versus Myth." If any of our more musically inclined listeners wanted to take a whack at making a theme for the new segment we would be happy to shout you out on the show. Shan tried but well, it's complicated. Check out more pictures of Ben at: www.instagram.com/benmudge_You can also find us on Instagram at: www.instagram.com/nordicmythologypodcastAnd if you like what we do, and would like to be in the audience for live streams of new episodes to ask questions please consider supporting us on Patreon:www.patreon.com/NordicMythologyPodcastIf you would like to join our bi-weekly watch-alongs where Mathias and Daniel watch and commentate along with the popular series Vikings, or get access to our special Storytime episodes covering the saga literature, then all you have to do is join our Patron.
