In this episode, Shawn and David read the story of Mimir’s well and the price Odin had to pay to drink from it. Shawn brings in additional sources that detail Odin's sacrifice of his eye, and family tree background on Mimir.
We discuss the idea of sacrifice. David feels it necessary to explain why it's important to sacrifice your phallus (metaphorically speaking) and we unsuccessfully try to not make each other laugh.
