The episode was recorded on the breathtaking Holy Island of Lindisfarne, United Kingdom, where the Vikings first invaded the UK, an island you can only drive to in low tide. It was a great experience to visit, but it had a poor internet connection, so unfortunately, the audio quality of this episode is a little inadequate. 

🗓️ Recorded September 10th, 2024. 📍 The Holy Island of Lindisfarne, United Kingdom
