Summary
This week Mathias and Daniel are sitting down with… themselves? It must be a show and tell episode! For anyone who doesn't know how these work yet here is a quick rundown: each host brings some topics to discuss and we have a nice laid back episode, like in the early days of the show. This week the topics are: Did Vikings have horns on their helmets? Why the Vikings might not actually be very fearsome warriors. And how industrialization ruined everything, but also not really... It's complicated.
