Arthur Herman - The Viking Heart - Episode #168

American historian and author Arthur Herman joins Michael this week for a discussion on his new book The Viking Heart, the backstory, roots, and inspiration behind writing it, how the Vikings created what became medieval Russia, the official origin of the Molotov cocktail, German misconceptions of Scandinavian culture in the 19th century and the resulting pursuit for purity through the Aryan archetype, how Raoul Wallenberg became the Scandinavian Schindler, the contrast between the French, Danish, and Norwegian societies and their protection of Jewish citizens, the real Swedish economic miracle of free market capitalism, what ultimately brought prosperity to Scandinavia, why Sweden gave way on Norwegian independence, the stark sense of survival in Scandinavia and how it translated into dealing with a pandemic, plus how Arthur was involved in the fight against Covid-19, and so much more!Get the most comfortable underwear you'll ever put on at http://www.SheathUnderwear.com and use code MALICE20 for 20% OFF your order.Get your energy back, sleep better, and block out the unhealthy effects of blue light from your computer, phone, and TV with BLUblox blue light glasses.
