Most fun & insight of any Vikings podcast

You go into an episode of Norse Code not knowing if Arif’s gonna give you an insightful 12-minute breakdown of the intricacies of an offensive scheme, or a 12-minute story about overdosing on caffeine in 7th grade (episode 506, 1:53:04 onwards, treat yourself). The most fun Vikings podcast out there, and one that gives Arif’s unparalleled analysis real room to breathe. I know so much more about football from listening, and I’ve had a blast learning.
