By:
Degsy's mam, Brenda Higginbottom, has somehow reached the Arctic on mother's instinct — and she is NOT impressed. As Gaz and Degsy try to broadcast the story of the Swedish Vikings who went east, Brenda barges in with a fry-up and no respect whatsoever for live radio.
Tonight's history (all true, however loudly interrupted):
- The Varangian Guard — in 988, Emperor Basil II takes six thousand Viking hard-lads as his personal bodyguard.
- - Miklagård — what the Norse called Constantinople, reached by rowing east down the rivers.
- - Halfdan — a bored Varangian who carved his name in runes inside the Hagia Sophia. Still there a thousand years on.
- - Ingvar the Far-Travelled — the great expedition east that never came home, remembered on runestones across Sweden.
...with two original punk tracks: "Miklagård" and "Proper Breakfast".
Contains strong language. An AI-generated production: voices and music made with AI, history fact-checked by hand.
