Viking Royalty: Nicknames, Love Poems & Victorian Myths

We think we know the Vikings, but how well do we really know them?

Joining Kate today is Dr. Caitlin Ellis, historian and Associate Professor at the University of Oslo, to take us back to this world and find out more.

This episode was edited and produced by Stuart Beckwith. The senior producer was Charlotte Long.
