Podcast Town 10 | Tønsberg, Norway -

Castles, Music, Vikings

Welcome to Tønsberg! Tønsberg is Norway's oldest city. Tønsberg is best known for its annual music festival—Slottsfjell, Castle Rock Tower—Slottsfjelltårnet, and its Viking origins.

More recently, Tønsberg's inhabitants have discovered Podcasting. They have more podcasts per capita than Norway's capital, OSLO! Imagine that!

This episode highlights the following three pods from the hundreds available on the Tønsberg Podcast Network:

Braids & Beards: Hosted by Sven and Sandy Percy. Their marriage may be on the rocks, but their knowledge of seasonal braids and artificial beards is second to none!
Who Needs Ikea Anyway: Hosted by Braun Holtzmann and Phil. Braun may have a method to his madness, but dropping Phil in Ikea with only 15 minutes to escape does seem cruel.
Valhalla: Blissfully married couple, Astrid and Bjorn Olsen share control and instruct listeners on incorporating "olde-world Viking traditions" into the modern-day home.

Sponsors include Oseberg Ship Experiences, Marvel Locations Tours, Do We Have a Match, Tønsberg Ikea, Slottsfjell, Sir Anthony Hopkins Vertshus, Magnus' Diner, Viking Funerals, Olsen Jams, Horny Cups, Pickles, and a few others... you know who you are!
