Anglo-Saxon Paganism: Redux
I recently became a dad for the first time and the needs of caring for a newborn have moved podcast production back slightly. To make up for it I am releasing here a Patreon exclusive episode: Anglo-Saxon Paganism - Redux. In the years since my first look at Anglo-Saxon paganism, my thinking on the topic has changed somewhat to the point that I wanted to look at it again. The result is, I feel, more detailed and informative. Credits – Music: 'Wælheall' by Hrōðmund Wōdening https://www.youtube
