For centuries the western Norse colony of Vinland was known only to scholars of the Icelandic Sagas. But in the 19th century the work of a few Scandinavian historians helped revive interest in these previously obscure tales. When the Danish historian Carl Christian Rafn published in his work in English in 1837, many American's were exposed to the idea that the Norse had beaten Columbus to North America by 500 years. Many New Englanders were also excited by the idea that the legendary colony of Vinland may have been in Cape Cod. However, this new interest in the American Vikings also kicked off a wave of Norse flavored forgeries. Some were inspired to create elaborate pseudo-histories that supplanted the America's true first people with a lost group of Norse settlers. The real history of the Norse in North America was soon clouded by a haze of hoaxes and fantasies. Tune-in and find out how runes in Minnesota, Uncle Tom's Cabin, and Newfoundlander named George all play a role in the story.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Friday the 13th is BACK. And not just once this year, baby witches, but THREE TIMES. Yes, 2026 is absolutely unhinged and we should all be afraid. This week, Alicia and Terra are cracking open the folklore, the fear, and the full chaotic history of the most infamous date on the Gregorian Calendar. We're talking Norse mythology and the death of Baldr (yes, Loki is involved, obviously). We're talking the Last Supper, triskaidekaphobia, and why the number 13 has been considered cursed since at least the 1400s. We're talking real Friday the 13th disasters, including the 1972 Andes plane crash and the 2012 Costa Concordia shipwreck, because apparently this date has notes. And then we zoom out: Tuesday the 13th, the Ides of March, Italy's fear of the number 17, and the 1980 slasher film that turned a spooky superstition into a full cultural institution. Is Friday the 13th genuinely cursed? A Christian holdover? A Norse myth remix? A media invention? It's all of the above, and we couldn't be more delighted. Three Fridays the 13th in one year.

Guest post by Declan Goodman, Digital Mythology. Helping leaders make sense of digital transformation through story, myth and meaning After nearly 30 years working in digital transformation across different cultures, I have learned that digital transformation success is less about technology and more about people. While digital transformation is concerned with technology and how it can enable business outcomes, the most transformative element is not the tech, it's the people. How Mythology can help with Digital Transformation Many digital transformations struggle not because of the tech, but because the story behind it is unclear. Technology professionals often use frameworks, capability models and technical jargon to explain transformation – which makes sense to technologists – but rarely resonates with business stakeholders. Transformation only succeeds when the story behind it speaks to the hearts and minds of the people who must live through the change. People care far less about what is going to be built or replaced, and far more about what the change will mean for them. This is where mythology offers a practical lens. Myths are deeply human narratives that societies have used for centuries to understand transformation. They capture universal themes that help people make sense of uncertainty and imagine a different future. The use of mythology in storytelling is not new. The film Star Wars was built on mythic structures like the classic hero's journey and the redemption of the fallen father. Opera composers like Wagner used Norse mythology in The Ring Cycle to explore timeless themes of power, greed and downfall. Yet this approach has not quite found its way into the tech world. This is where the real opportunity lies. Tech leaders today can harness the power of myth to frame digital transformation as a human story rather than a technical endeavour. Here are some examples of how you can use myth to tell your story of digital transformation in a more human-led way. Example 1: How myth can help you ground your digital transformation program Mythology has a wonderful way of teaching us the importance of perspective. In Greek myth, Apollo observes humanity from high above, judging human behaviour without fully understanding the struggles they face. It's only when he comes down to live among humans that he grasps our reality. This is also true for tech leaders who architect and strategise transformation roadmaps that tick the logical boxes, but overlook the lived experience of change 'on the ground' for stakeholders. The lesson here is that leaders must avoid becoming trapped in the 'ivory tower' of strategy and instead experience transformation as their stakeholders do. Practical ways to implement this myth include leaders spending time 'shadowing' teams to understand their daily workflows and conducting 'day in the life of' workshops to see how transformation actually affects people. Just as Apollo learned that walking in the shoes of others brings perspective, tech leaders can do the same to make digital transformation grounded and real. Example 2: How myth can help people embrace the change digital transformation will bring Another lesson from mythology is how empathy can help us move fully into the new world by letting go of the old one. The Norse goddess Hel is the guardian between worlds, where souls pass from one world to the next, a deeply unsettling transition. She greets souls with empathy and explains that the old world is no longer right for them, they have outgrown it, and the new world is where they now belong. This applies strongly in digital transformation. The legacy processes and systems that your stakeholders have relied upon for years will significantly change or disappear and may require changes to their expertise – leading to a sense of loss or fear. This myth reminds digital leaders that resistance to change is not a barrier, rather it is a natural human response to losing what is familiar. Practical...

Reports suggest Sony may be pulling back from releasing its big single-player PlayStation games on PC, potentially signaling a return to stronger console exclusivity. At the same time, rumors are circulating that Sony Santa Monica's next project could be a God of War spinoff focused on Faye, exploring events before the Norse saga. We also dive into the latest Bloodborne remake news, including reports that Bluepoint pitched a remake that Sony supported but FromSoftware ultimately rejected.

FIRST LOOK AT SCARY MOVIE 6, A JOHNNY CAGE-CENTRIC MORTAL KOMBAT II TRAILER, KRATOS IMAGES, & MORE!! This week, Greg Alba is joined by Aaron Alexander to break down the latest trailers for Scary Movie 6 and Mortal Kombat II (2026) — plus diving into the first-look images of Kratos from the upcoming God of War TV series! Taking aim at films like Scream, Sinners, Weapons, Terrifier, The Substance, Halloween 2018, M3gan, Longlegs, & beyond, Scary Movie 6 sees the Wayans bringing back the outrageous parody energy that made the original films iconic - including classic characters played by Anna Ferris, Regina Hall, Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Lochlyn Munroe, & beyond! On the action side, Mortal Kombat II promises bigger fights, fan-favorite characters, and more brutal fatalities. We're analyzing the new footage, roster reveals, and whether this sequel levels up from the 2021 reboot. Plus — the first official images of Kratos (Ryan Hurst) have dropped for the highly anticipated God of War series. Does the look capture the spirit of the PlayStation classic? Are we getting Greek saga rage or Norse-era dad Kratos? We break down the armor, casting, and what it could mean for the adaptation.

Darth Maul Shadow Lord will show a more progressive version of Maul where he now respects the Jedi in comparison to Palpatine and the Empire. I see the pattern that studios keep taking darker characters by giving them strong morality checks and while this is true in life and character progression, I don't think ALL characters should get a dose of this. Like Kratos for example, he was too different in the Norse games compared to the Greek ones. Yes, character progression and changed thinking is a thing, but I think Maul could still despise the Jedi while hating the Empire all the same like his character always did. Him switching up and respecting the Jedi now shows his own weakness that just because Papa Palpatine hurt him, now he's going to go softer on the ones who (he thinks) destroyed his life.

Here we have a delightful chat with Annie Humphrey regarding her new Inner Traditions publication: Norse-Gaelic Paganism; Viking and Irish Myth and Magic.I feel as if we covered a lot of ground in such a short amount of time. I even got Annie to give us her take on the popular series, 'Vikings'. Annie Cúglas Humphrey, PhD, teaches history at Kean University and Ocean County College and wrote a dissertation on the depiction of the Norse in Ireland found in Medieval Irish dynastic narratives. Humphrey is the goði of the Kindred of Mann, a Norse-Gaelic fellowship founded in 2009, and is on the executive board of the Northeast Thing. Humphrey lives in New Jersey with their husband and two children.RELATED LINKS:Author's website: https://anniechumphrey.com/Author's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/cuglas/Author's Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/ancuglasAuthor's X page: https://x.com/GallGaidhelTips are most welcome:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠buymeacoffee.com/niish⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our website:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thecosmicsalon.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠I want to thank the producers of this show:Meredith Walako (Scheduling, bookings, and social media manager).

The only literary sources we have about the Viking settlements west of Greenland come from the Icelandic Sagas. The only problem is that the Sagas can be totally off-the-wall. Corpses reanimate and speak prophecies, giant-eyed doppelgängers vanish into thin air, and one-legged creatures murder unsuspecting Norse explorers. But, this same sources also describe interactions between the Norse and the Vinland's first people that sound remarkably believable. The people the Norse called the Skraeling's act quite a lot like the Algonquin speaking peoples of Canada's east coast. How do we separate the historical wheat from the legendary chaff? Tune-in and find out how female axe murderers, Vinland's first Viking baby, and the loudest bull in the world all play a role in the story.Check out the merch at out T-Public store HERE!

In this week's episode, we're joined by Nordic witch, rune reader, and author of Queering the Runes, Siri Vincent Plouff, for a deep and delightfully bird-filled dive into runic magic. Siri shares the wild origin story of being claimed by Odin via the infamous “Minneapolis Murder” of crows, how that encounter led them into Heathenry, and what it really means to build a relationship with the runes as living spirits. We unpack common misconceptions about Norse culture, hint it is more than just Viking bros and dreads, the impact of Christianization on the myths, and how Hollywood has flattened an incredibly rich and complex spiritual history.Most importantly, we explore what it means to queer the runes, both as an identity and as a verb. Siri breaks down gender fluidity and performance in Old Norse mythology, Loki's shapeshifting chaos, Odin's relationship to feminine magic, and how queering spiritual systems helps us break out of rigid, heteronormative frameworks. We also talk about ethical rune practice, avoiding white supremacist co-optation, and simple low spoon ways to incorporate runes into daily life, including body poses, pocket magic, and protection work. Whether you're rune curious or already in deep, this conversation will expand your understanding of Nordic magic and maybe even your definition of tradition itself.Find more about Siri below:WebsitePatreonHeathen's Journey PodcastChaos and Cunning PodcastBlueSkyInstagramTikTokRegister for the Queering the Runes courseOrder Molly's book Mundane Magic A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff DoneJoin our Patreon for bonus episodes, magical downloads, and unhinged side quests: https://www.patreon.com/demystifymagic

Remember when we tried to have a comprehensive discussion of The Lord of the Rings in one 55-minute episode? Turns out there's a lot more to it.In this introduction to our LOTR (Revisited) series, we take a quiz to find out which characters we are, get on a soapbox about how adaptations and their respective source materials are two separate entities, then highlight a few of the topics we plan to delve deeper into over the next few episodes.Inspirations from Norse mythology and medieval epicsLore and races of Middle Earth and their real-world rootsTolkien's Medievalism through the lens of the Victorian eraHippie culture's embrace of The Hobbit and the Medievalism revival of the 1960s and 1970sTolkien's impact in modern fantasy fiction and Medievalism in current popular cultureTolkien's work in context of conversations about race, gender, and power hierarchies in fantasyHopefully we'll get to all of this. We'll see.

Meta has filed a patent for an AI system that trains a language model on a dead person's behavioral data and keeps their social media account running after they die. It can post, message, and simulate video calls. But this is not a new problem. Every major culture in human history developed elaborate rituals for managing the active dead, from Norse draugr to Roman Lemures to Japanese hungry ghosts to Chinese possession ceremonies. They all understood one thing - the channel has to close.​​If you are having a mental health crisis and need immediate help, please go to​ ​​​https://troubledminds.org/help/ and call somebody right now.

Guest: Matthew Lockwood. Lockwood examines the history of exploration from non-European perspectives, including Carthaginian sailors and Chinese fleets. He explains how early accounts, like those of the Norse in Vinland, were often dismissed as myths.

The Great Heathen Army: the cool, or terrifying, name given to a huge Norse army that landed in England in the middle of the 9th century and stayed for 13 years, devastating the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. The Viking leaders are semi-legendary, cloaked in the mythology of the Norse and the scaremongering of the Anglo-Saxons. Was the army really led by the three sons of the infamous Ragnar Lothbrook, as depicted in Assassin's Creed Valhalla? What were they trying to achieve? And after Alfred the Great, would the Great Heathen Army have considered itself successful?Matt Lewis is joined by Dr Caitlin Ellis, Associate Professor of Nordic Medieval History at the University of Oslo.

Connect with Mel Connect with Coach MikkiWhat if “unlucky” is just a story we inherited, and we're free to rewrite it? We kick things off with Friday the 13th and follow the thread through Norse myths, the Last Supper, and the Knights Templar to see how fear gathers power over time. Then we flip the script with Galentine's Day, turning a date with a bad reputation into a bright spot for friendship, humor, and everyday love that doesn't wait for a calendar prompt.From there, we lose it in laughter talking about  the rituals we learned as kids, honking through tunnels, lifting our feet over railroad tracks, counting cows until a cemetery reset, still echo in how we chase luck and ward off jitters. We share the nostalgia of vintage toys and board games (yes, Operation's terrifying buzz and Monopoly debt at age 10), plus the handmade Barbie outfits that prove fashion really does come back around—hello again, shoulder pads. These memories aren't just cute; they're a map of how culture changes and how we choose what to keep.We also open up about what we're building now. Mel's crafting seasonal word search books, sketching cozy mysteries, and launching a stock photo portfolio. Mickey's fresh off a keynote on why comfort zones kill success and is racing to finish a new book before a small East Coast signing tour. Creativity becomes our counterspell to superstition: show up, make something, share it. That's how we make our own luck.If you've ever wondered why 13 feels spooky, whether numerology helps or hinders, or how a sitcom joke turned into a global celebration of women's friendship, you'll feel right at home here. Come for the folklore and stay for the heart, the laughs, and the reminder that joy lands best when it's shared. If this conversation made you smile, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review, what superstition are you still carrying? We look forward to seeing you succeed! - www.KeepOnSharing.com - Code - KOSSupport the showJoin my guests on my YouTube Channel

If you walk under a ladder after breaking a mirror, does that make your day doubly unlucky? Since we’re a science program, we’ll say no. But that double-trouble philosophy underpins the superstitions about Friday the 13th. Both Friday and the number 13 have been considered bad luck. Put them together, and you have what may be the most feared of any day-and-date combo. The individual superstitions both have religious and mythological origins. In Christianity, for example, the Last Supper was shared by 13 men. And Jesus was crucified on a Friday. Just when the two were put together isn’t clear. The idea of Friday the 13th being unlucky shows up in some publications in France in 1834. The first record of it in the United States dates to 1882. How many people fear the date isn’t clear, either. But scientists have come up with a couple of names for it. The shorter one, believe it or not, is friggatriskaidekaphobia. Frigg was the Norse goddess for whom Friday is named, and triskaidekaphobia is fear of the number 13. Other than some unlucky teens in the “Friday the 13th” movies, there’s no evidence that the day is any more dangerous than any other. A study in 2011 compared hospital records for 13 Fridays the 13th to other date combinations. There was no bump in the number of emergency-room visits – nothing unlucky about Friday the 13th.

Gwyn and Ode (+Jax!) discuss making things.

Between the 9th and 11th centuries Norse explorers undertook a series of remarkable journeys through the North Atlantic. Iceland and Greenland were settled by medieval farmers eager to find new uninhabited lands. But just how far west did these seafarer's manage to travel? The unique Icelandic texts known as the sagas tell tales of journeys to a fertile and abundant country south west of Greenland named Vinland, or the Land of Wine, for the wild grapes that allegedly grew there. Archaeology has proven that the Norse managed to reach Northern Newfoundland, but could the rocky North Peninsula really be the "land of wine" blessed with "frostless winters?" Where was Vinland? Did it ever truly exist? Tune-in and find out how magical sleeps, violent troll tests, and saga story-time all play a role in the story.
