Amanda (Panda) ,

My favorite

Fantastic podcast if you’re a fan of history, mythology and Vikings! Each episode I learn so much.

Taffy95 ,

Factual and funny

I clean houses for work, so while cleaning I’ll pop a headphone in, turn on Nordic Mythology Podcast and just work. I find myself laughing and smiling while also learning new and interesting facts. As well as finding awesome new music and events to go to. Wonderful podcast that’s packed full of conversations you’d have with friends in a living room, if you were smart and educated 😂

Anime1984 ,

Very entertaining, and helpful

Love the podcast, and I have learned a lot. Thanks for the podcast.
