Great so far, after after the first episode! Lots of historical detail, entertaining to listen to.

Description

The Vikings terrified the medieval world. Yet they beguile us today. Who were they really?


Welcome to Real Vikings - the new show from the award-winning Noiser Podcast Network, hosted by Iain Glen (Game of ThronesResident EvilDownton Abbey).


Each week we’ll take a deep dive into the Viking age… boarding longboats bound for new lands, from Greenland to North Africa, Constantinople to Canada… following mighty warlords like Eric Bloodaxe and Olga of Kyiv… meeting master navigators like Leif Erikson… and uncovering the real figures behind the legends of the sagas.


With contributions from leading historians, original music and immersive sound design.


Real Vikings is available for free wherever you get your podcasts or at noiser.com
