| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Nordic mythology podcast, I'm Daniel Farund, on the company horns wording. |
| 0:11.6 | So before we start the show, I do have a little announcement to make. |
| 0:14.8 | We recently ran a poll on our Instagram and our discord server as to what day people would like |
| 0:21.8 | us to record the episode on us. at the moment we do it on a |
| 0:24.7 | Tuesday 7 p.m. and we got an overwhelming reaction for us to swap it to a Sunday, even in same sort of time, 7 PM, UK time. |
| 0:35.9 | So we're going to do that probably in the new year starting January and it's going to give people a greater chance to join and watch live I think we struggle |
| 0:48.6 | finding a timing that suited our wide range of listeners from the USA to the UK to obviously mainland Europe. |
| 0:58.0 | So I think this Sunday is going to work it helps people who are working during the week. |
| 1:04.0 | And alongside that, we're also looking at moving our story time episode that we do for |
| 1:11.7 | patron from the higher tier down to the basic tier which is also |

| 1:21.5 | bit more accessible it's going to drop down into the three-pound tier. So you're going to get two extra episodes in that tier. So if you can and you do want to support the show, if you enjoy what we do and want to help us keep |

| 1:48.0 | You're going to get the Q&A episode with every guest, |
| 1:52.4 | which is always a lot of fun. There's a bunch of questions that I miss. |
| 1:55.2 | I know last week with Anders Winroth there were some questions that were just |
| 1:59.7 | fantastic that made me feel stupid that I missed them in the main show and you're going to get as I said |
| 2:06.2 | we're going to add the story time episode in there you get access to watch the shows live which are always a lot of fun |
| 2:11.5 | especially as we get more people coming in. |
| 2:14.0 | There's a whole side chat going on amongst the main show. |
