Welcome to the Northern mythology podcast, I'm Daniel Farund on the coming in horns of Odin and today I'm once again joined by my partner in crime I guess Dr Matias Nordwig.

Welcome back.

Hello and everybody? No back and do it again. Oh sorry. Hello everybody.

Oh sorry. Hello everybody. Today we're joined by me.

How are you doing? I'm doing all right, you know, making life work,

drinking tea from my, I don't know if you can see it, my mountain mama cup, so. It suits you.

Right.

It does sue you. Yeah, it's been it's been too long. We were we were just saying

obviously before we started just missed the the shit talking we have between each other just kind of like the behind the scenes of just yeah it's I've made I round about way I've missed you I'm glad you're back talking and we're

Likewise, you too.

So what have you been up to?

Because you have some exciting things to tell everyone about.

Yeah, I don't, I mean, that really depends on your taste, whether or not you find

an exciting. I mean, obviously, if it's not exciting to the people listen to this then I don't know what more of a compact audience you're going to get for it.

That's true. Well, yeah, so I I left this podcast to go start my own pocket.

And now we're in deep fierce competition.

Never.

Yeah, I know, yeah, I started my podcast, The Sacred Flame, where, you know, I'm, you know, I'm, I'm talking about Nordic mythology but it's not it's not so much like a fact-based as much as it is sort of like trying to develop, I would say, a philosophy from Nordic mythology that we can use in our daily lives.

So it's, you know, it's very different, what do you call it? It's a very different perspective, right? And yeah, I'm talking about like things like, you know, how do we how do we relate to the world, how do we relate to the world as a community for instance, how do we relate to the world as a community, for instance, how do we relate to ancestors and fellow human beings and

trees and birds and those kinds of things? So I'm trying to sort of like address a lot of what I think are sort of core problems, issues that we as modern humans are dealing with and yes Kaley also squirrels definitely

squirrels a lot of conversation with girls.

I wanted to say that, but I didn't want to jump in and then it cancel out my voice out. So I couldn't even, I couldn't get there quick enough. Somebody please make his voice a squirrel voice from now on.
