    Ep 73 - The Rus Vikings with Anatoly of Nytt Land
    This week Mathias and Daniel are sitting down with Anatoly Pahlenko one of the founders of the amazing band Nytt Land to talk about the Rus Vikings, as well as the bands most recent album: Ritual.

Also a lot of to-do will be made about what exactly we should call this genre that Nytt Land and Wardruna occupy, it turns out it's really complicated.If you would like to check out Nytt Land's new album you can find it at: Nyttland.bandcamp.com/album/ritualAlso, Mathias recently wrote a book about volcanoes and their effect on Nordic Mythology which you can find it at: aup.nl/en/book/9781641892926/volcanoes-in-old-norse-mythologyYou can 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/NordicMythologyPodcastWe've also reached our goal of 100 Patrons and are starting a new show where our hosts Mathias and Daniel watch and commentate along with the popular series Vikings!

    Ep 72 - Living Tradition with Icelandic Völva Tanya Lind
    This week Mathias and Daniel are sitting down with Tanya Lind, a modern day Völva of the Icelandic tradition. Together with the boys she'll be discussing the roots of her practice starting with Völuspá in the Poetic Edda and contrasting with her own contemporary experiences. Also, Dan discusses his childhood fear of ghosts, and a guest appearance by a cat wearing a loud bell (it goes away quickly, don't worry). Are those two things related? Well, it's complicated...If you would like to learn more about the organization Tanya mentioned, Heathen Women United, you can find out more at: Heathenwomenunited.orgMathias also recently wrote a book about volcanoes and their effect on Nordic Mythology which you can find it at: aup.nl/en/book/9781641892926/volcanoes-in-old-norse-mythologyYou can 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/NordicMythologyPodcastWe've also reached our goal of 100 Patrons and are starting a new show where our hosts Mathias and Daniel watch and commentate along with the popular series Vikings!
