| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Nordic mythology podcast. |
| 0:09.0 | I'm Daniel Ferrand of the company Horns of Odin. |
| 0:12.1 | As always, before we start the show, I do have to plug our Patreon. |
| 0:15.8 | I say it every single week, but it's the lifeline of the show. |
| 0:19.0 | It's how we keep going. |
| 0:20.8 | So if you can, head over to Patreon forward slash Nordomythology Podcasts. |
| 0:25.1 | They start from £3 a month, which is the price of buying me or mags, a cup of coffee. |

| 1:27.1 | Sometimes we get really good ones that are funny. Sometimes we get really good |
