Welcome to the Nordic mythology podcast, I'm Daniel Farund, on of the company Hansavodin.

And as always before we jump into today's show I do have to plug our

patron. It is how we keep the lights on and it helps pay the people behind the scenes because there's much more to this

podcast than just me. So for three pound a month that's about 10 per day you get a bonus

episode every week where we do a Q&A with our guests after the main show you could submit your questions beforehand or in real time during the live

chat feature of the show and that's another bonus you get to watch the episodes live there's a whole

little side show going on amongst every show in the little chat. It's always a lot of fun.

And on top of that you get our discord server, which is a beautiful little community that we've built over the years and you get access to that, you get early access to the episodes.

There's a bunch of little benefits as well as a story time episode that I do with Yonis Lorentz and

which tends to be a lot of fun we we drink beer and

Reed Sagas. Yeah there are a lot more laid back and a yeah a lot of fun but let's

remain to today's show So today I'm joined by the very talented Anika Shireen.

I always, I always panic on the surname every time you please pronounce it properly with the rolling a

I don't know if that's a proper pronunciation but this is how my mom called me

It's it's she reine.

Okay.

But it's Dutch, right?

That's pronunciation.

We lost, like I said, we lost the rowing hour a long time ago and I just my British mouths just can't do it I think if you

obviously if you practice you can yeah I guess that's also when you learn new languages, you have to train your mouth or retrain your mouth in a way.

That's what I noticed.

And I mean, languages are all in the different part of the mouth I guess so it's very logical
