In this episode Daniel and Mathias are talking about who became Vikings and if Vikings were only Scandinavians in the Viking Age. Some interesting facts are revealed about Vikings and ethnicities, and Vikings and social classes. Towards the end the conversation drifts towards another subject that our hosts are passionate about: who can lay claim to the term "Viking" nowadays?
