Summary
In this episode we are going old school and telling the story of Utgard Loki. Daniel and Mathias also have a broader discussion of how this myth in particular is the perfect example of Christianity absorbing local mythology to further its own ends. Get ready for some good old fashioned storytelling, as well as some quality discussions from the hosts, about appropriation and religious identity in the medieval period. The answers, as always, will be complicated.
