Welcome to the first episode of Saga Thing! After John and I recorded the Hrafnkel's saga episode, we decided it would be beneficial for both us and our listeners to cover some basic "backgroundy stuff" before going any further. It was meant to be a quick 45 minute episode. The result is three "mini-episodes" of varying lengths. In this, our first installment of episode 1, we introduce the podcast and address the discovery of Iceland, the Settlement Age, and some interesting tidbits about life in early medieval Iceland. We hope you enjoy!
