The 7th episode of the ‘Beer n BS Podcast’. Alex and Gideon join us on the show for an interview, a drop of mead and some Viking banter. We taste four meads from the fantastic Lancashire Mead Co. Beer or Bullshit becomes Mead or Manure as the team get to find the bullshit in five Viking/Mead facts. Alex is in the hot seat for ‘Beer n BS and the Philosopher’s Pint Glass’. Apologies to Norwich!
