Episode 73: Norse Deities- Mimir and Baldur

Welcome back Witches! We're jumping back on the deity train this week and this time in the Norse pantheon.  While we will cover some of the more talked about deities in the future, this episode is going to cover Mimir and Baldur.  We're gonna cover some variations in the mythology, some ties they both have to other Gods, and their ties to Ragnarök. So get in losers and let's learn about the Norse deities, Mimir and Baldur.
