268-Viking Legends: Hride or Die

Two stories from Norse myth. The first is about how you should just be you, even if people think you're a fool for doing so...actually, kind of especially if people think you are a fool for doing so.

The second is about why you shouldn't go to the bathroom alone at night: Norse toilet zombies.

The creature is the Mimick Dog, a dog that will mimic you and maybe put on plays.
