This month we’re attempting to tackle a topic I’ve had on the list for a while: Norse Paganism’s Nazi problem. It’s not exactly the most fun thing in the world, but after a certain shirtless idiot was amongst the rioters that attempted to overthrow the United States government at the capitol on January 6th, I just couldn’t put it off any longer. I don’t know how helpful this episode is, but it definitely made me feel better to yell about it for twenty minutes.
So I guess that’s something.
