Nordic Mythology Podcast
Daniel Farrand
Have you ever wondered "What is a Viking?", "Were Vikings tattooed?" or "Did they ever REALLY use the Blood Eagle? If so, then this is the right podcast for YOU.
In this podcast, follow along Daniel Farrand's (Owner of Horns of Odin) journey as he tries to make sense of the complex history of the Viking Age and Nordic Mythology, through easy to digest, funny, natural (and often very honest) conversations.
Daniel is joined by Co-Host (and in house archaeologist) Margrethe Havgar, as the pair are joined by a host of guests; which include world leading scholars and Viking Age creators, to world renowned musicians and movie stars.
So, if you've ever asked "Were Runes used for magic?" or "is Thor REALLY the only person who can lift his hammer?". We'll definitely have an episode on it
But be prepared to be told, "It's Complicated."

Ep 121 - Being Uhtred of Bebbanburg with Alexander Dreymon
Nordic Mythology Podcast
06/23/22 • 68 min
This episode has taken almost 2 years to arrange, so we hope you really enjoy it. This week Mathias and Daniel are honored to be sitting down with Alexander Dreymon, aka Uhtred of Bebbanburg from the popular show The Last Kingdom! Together with the boys Alex will discuss how a lord with no lands might pay the men who fought for him in a pre-currency era, and there will also be a solid 20 minutes on coconut bikinis. Why? It's complicated.
A special thanks to Alex for coming on the show, it was a real treat for us and the patrons!

06/02/22 • 94 min
This week it's three doctors and one Daniel, as Mathias is joined by fellow scholars Rune Rasmussen, and Australian scholar Tyson Yunkaporta! Regular listeners will know Rune from his previous appearances in episodes 35, and 94. And Tyson is new to the show, but his expertise as a senior lecturer in Indigenous Knowledges at Deakin University in Melbourne is sure to come in handy during the discussion. Topics this week include: The Aun Year, what is it? What does that even mean? And why conspiracy theories like Qanon keep adopting Nordic Mythology. Sounds complicated enough!
