Christmas Eve Special: Gifts from the Goat and the Underworld #52

Merry Christmas! In Scandinavia we open presents on Christmas Eve and tonight Torgrim and Mikael have brought one each. Inside we find two fairy tales – "The three billy goats Gruff“ from Norway and "Mother Holle“ from Germany. Join our fireside chat as we delve deep into these two stories, exploring possible hidden layers and meanings and seeing if there’s more than meets the eye.
