I absolutel love this Old Norse Language Expert.
He's a scholar of Old Norse Languages and an expert on runic languages. He's also impeccably professional, accessible, and takes great pains to be intellectually honest and avoid the politicization of Viking language stuff, doing much to undercut the racist assholes that can pollute the casual interest in 'viking' culture studies.
Plus, he's basically a cowboy, completing the Cowboy Hávamál back in 2012.
He's a cool guy!
