Viking kings are swapping Thor for Christ, but don’t confuse baptism with mercy. In Twilight of the Æsir II, Dan Carlin dives into the chaos of pagan warlords becoming Christian monarchs: Bluetooth, Forkbeard, and holy brutality.

Hardcore History 70 – Twilight of the Æsir II

Pagan Viking Sea Kings spend the 10th and 11th centuries morphing into Christian monarchs. But with rulers like Harald Bluetooth and Svein Forkbeard it’s debatable whether things will be any less horrific for Scandinavia’s neighbors.

VIKINGS vs SAMURAI
Thor’s Angels ain’t your dad’s history class. Dan Carlin drags you through the “Dark Ages” with gods, Germans, and Jesus riding shotgun. What started as a podcast became a full-blown audiobook riot.

Hardcore History 41 – Thor’s Angels

Dan Carlin delves into some dicey topics—gods, Germans, bikers, and even Jesus.

VIKINGS vs SAMURAI
In Twilight of the Æsir I, Carlin picks up where Thor’s Angels left off—right as the old gods start fading. It’s the Viking Age in freefall, and Christianity’s kicking the door in.

Can't imagine it would ever happen but #JoeRogan (and lots of his bro world) loves #DanCarlin. Get him on #JRE with any of the #MAGA elites that Joe now has access to. Trump, Elon, Vance, Tucker etc. Break the spell. #CommonSense #HardcoreHistory

What's Good for the Goose - Common Sense with Dan Carlin

Common Sense with Dan Carlin is an independent look at politics and current events from popular New Media personality Dan Carlin. Carlin's self-described "Martian" viewpoints infuse each episode with a political alien's take on the world around us and the problems it faces. It's a smart, unique (and admittedly U.S.-centric) program that doesn't dumb down the information or analysis for the slowest person in the room. Carlin's rapid-fire staccato voice has been compared to William Shatner after too many espressos. That, plus his penchant for making everyone in the audience mad at him eventually, makes for a witch's brew of a podcast that is not for everyone. But for those craving a deeper intellectual analysis, a less partisan approach and unpredictable outside-the-box revelations, Common Sense with Dan Carlin is a feast for the mind.

#dancarlin does his first #politics #podcast in 3 years (!!!) And holy shit is it a banger. I found myself yearning to send it to my estranged parents multiple times during the listening.

The strongest recommendation imaginable.

Planning on giving it a relisten, it is _that good_

Ya know, dan gets alot of shit for his perfectionism, but it does make for a product that lasts decades.

Show 324 - What's Good for the Goose

The U.S. political stage has long been primed for an American nightmare. Faction loyalists can argue over who'll end up pulling the constitutional trigg...

#Uspol When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022 #DanCarlin said something that really stuck with me. “Vladimir Putin has taken off a mask that he can never put back on”. It really feels to me that Elon and bezos and co have now done the same. It was a gamble for Putin and it is a gamble for them.

Completed my #dancarlin collection by taking advantage of the December sale (promo code: holidays). Now I have many hours of #podcasts to listen to in the next year!

Looking forward to catching up on his viking related stuff, especially since I recently visited Sweden.
