Ep 42 - Yule Special 2020 with Josh Rood

This week  Mathias and Daniel are sitting down with Josh Rood the lead singer of the band Nexion. Together they will be answering all your questions about the celebration of Yule in the Viking era, and also discussing the practice of human and animal sacrifice in various Norse religions and texts. Those may seem like strange bedfellows for topics but trust us, it works. On a lighter note everyone shares stories of their own Yuletide traditions and mishaps; Daniel in particular has one worthy of a saga. It's been quite a year for everyone and we personally have come a long way from our Yule episode last year. This is for instance our second livestreamed episode for members of our Patreon!
