Bec tries to top her all-time best episode recap and Che muses on what makes Thorfinn such an interesting character, and they’re surprised by a special Viking-themed treat at the end of the episode. 
Plus they are joined by actor Alexander Ludwig, who played Bjorn in the TV show Vikings, who reveals his favourite memories from Viking life, what being a true warrior means to him and how he took on that bear…
Askeladd and his men continue their march to escape from Thorkell. However, their march comes to a halt at the Severn River. Askeladd hands a letter to an old man operating a ferry across the river and tells him to deliver the letter to the other side immediately.

In the latest episode of the Anime to Z podcast, hosts Che Lingo (rapper, musician, anime lover) and Bec Hill (comedian, writer, anime-curious) continue on their epic odyssey discussing the highs, lows and hijinks of historical anime Vinland Saga. 
Che and Bec speculate on how they would fare as Vikings and deep-dive into the meaning of Valhalla. There’s also discussion of Prince Canute the beaut, a difference of opinion about Askeladd’s intentions and a spear-throwing scene that left both of them speechless. 
Plus they are joined in the studio by comedian, animator and YouTuber Alasdair Beckett-King who comes bearing lots of animation knowledge, introduces the concept of ‘ones’ and ‘twos’ and rotoscoping to Che and Bec and waxes lyrical about the characterisation in Vinland Saga. 
Thorkell takes Canute hostage and follows after the main army of Denmark. Ragnar objects to Thorkell’s plan to take on the entire army of Denmark, boasting 16,000 soldiers, with only 500 men. Thorkell then begins to tell Ragnar the story of Valhalla, the pride of Normans, a place where only those who die in battle can go.

Thorfinn leaves the soldiers behind in disgust and climbs up a hill overlooking the village, where he pledges revenge for his father. However, he encounters Askeladd sitting in the darkness, who tells him about "Britannia", the aging of the world, and Ragnarok, the final battle.

In the latest episode of the Anime to Z podcast, hosts Che Lingo (rapper, musician, anime lover) and Bec Hill (comedian, writer, anime-curious) continue on their epic odyssey discussing the highs, lows and hijinks of historical anime Vinland Saga. 
Che reveals the anime series he’s watched most repeatedly and whether he’d survive the battle seas, which prompts Bec to share a seafaring story that’s equal parts hilarious and disgusting - you have been warned!
Meanwhile, they discuss the actors who lend their voices to the series, what they make of the absolute beast that is Thorkell and why Bjorn is growing on them. 
After capturing the treasure from the Franks, Askeladd’s men return to the village of Gorm on the Jutland Peninsula in Denmark to pass the winter. Thorfinn challenges Askeladd to a duel as a reward for bringing him the head of the captain of the clan of Franks. Even though Thorfinn has grown in skill through his experience in battle, he is still no match for Askeladd.
