Mythical Mischief Revisited:Loki and the Golden Apples

Thank you all who partook in JORVIK Viking Festival 2024, whether in person or online! We had so much fun that we need a small hiatus to recover, so this week we'll take a look back at a saga from last year:

Gather 'round once more, dear listeners, as That JORVIK Viking Thing Podcast revisits the legendary tale of Loki and the Golden Apples in an enchanting encore presentation! Join the ever-curious Silly History Boys as they spin the yarn of a mischievous trickster, a mystical bird, and apples that bestow immortality.

In this reawakening of divine mischief, immerse yourself in the whimsical world of Norse mythology as the gods partake in a peculiar dating show! But the adventure doesn't end there! Lucas and Miranda then take a dive deep into the morally ambiguous character of Loki and ponder the logistical intricacies of those coveted immortality apples.

If you want to continue enjoying the JORVIK Viking Festival 2024, check out our video series about the Herefordshire Hoard (now on display at JORVIK Viking Centre).
Or you can watch the recording of some of the festival livestreams, like In Conversation with... The Viking Museum in Stockholm, or The Richard Hall Symposium Presents: Fedir Androshchuk. 

We'll be back in two weeks with a brand new episode - see you then!
