Hi Trolls! It’s time to get your robes and pointy hat out of the closet because in episode 31 we are talking about Wacky Wizards! In this episode, Liam delves into the fascinating world of Icelandic magic (think magical runes, necropants, witch burnings and some dastardly deals with the devil) and will tell the tale of two of Iceland’s most famous spellcasters: Sæmundur fróði and Galdra Loftur. Alana introduces you to some lesser known magical men - both named John - from the east coast of North America. They are the Wizard of Marblehead Massachusetts and the Black Constable of Charleston, South Carolina.
Tangents include: waaaay too many Office references, sweet sweet well water, and Stacy Lane Matthews.
