In this episode, Daniel and Mathias talk about the Viking jól or yule celebration. What was it? Did it even exist? And did they actually celebrate the solstice? Aside from that, they get around a lot of other interesting subjects, such as medieval Christianity, work-life balance before industrialization, and a couple of questions from listeners.Also check us out on Instagram at: www.instagram.com/nordicmythologypodcastAnd if you like what we do, and would like to be in the audience for live streams of new episodes to ask questions please consider supporting us on Patreon:www.patreon.com/NordicMythologyPodcastIf you would like to join our bi-weekly Q&A Episodes in the new year, or get access to our special Story Time episodes covering the saga literature, then all you have to do is join our Patron.
