We are changing our format a little on he podcast, we are now going to try and focus on several subjects throughout an episode to give you more variety in our content. So today we discuss our thoughts on Heilung's new album, as well as the differences between christian funerals and what we want pagan funerals to become.
Last year we recorded an episode called "The Wolf, The Raven, and The Bear: The Many Pathways of Odin." This episode is a follow-up showing how much our lives can change in a year, and what lessons we learn along the way no matter what path you take.
We bring back on Claire from 60 episodes ago to discuss what it has been like for her to be pagan while growing up in Europe. While sharing our experiences as Americans and what it has been like to practice in the "new world."
We bring back on Lauren to discuss the ever growing issue of internet Viking Bros, and wanna be shield maidens. We tackle both sides of the issue from the popularity of Viking media, to the importance of respect when getting interested in new topics.
Today we bring on 30 year Navy Seal Veteran, Jason Gardner, to discuss his career in the military. We also discuss what he has been up to since his retirement, and raising a daughter with the warrior mindset.
We bring back on James to discuss the new movie, The Northman, and make our cases for why every norse pagan should go and see this movie. This is a spoiler review, and meant to continue on the review already posted to the Wisdom of Odin YouTube.
We discuss the nature of ragnarok, and what conclusions can be made from the global cultural obsession with the end times.
