Bonus episode - preview of holidays of ASOIAF

Welcome to this bonus episode! As mentioned in the episode, life has conspired against us managing to find time to record, so in the meanwhile here is a shorter episode with just Lo. This is also a preview of sorts of the episode we have coming up, where we will discuss what holidays exist (and should exist) in ASOIAF. In this episode Lo discusses Valborg/Walpurgis night, and end up discussing May 1st as well. And why Westeros should have a spring festival!   You can contact us at: ragmanspod@gmail.com BlueSky Instagram Thank you to Matt Graham for the theme music with sounds from zapsplat.com!   If you want to see videos of the singing promised by Lo, check out these videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmoLQ5JrfHk&list=RDcmoLQ5JrfHk&start_radio=1 (children's choir singing songs you often hear at Valborg) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTmYi8oMxjY&list=RDLTmYi8oMxjY&start_radio=1 (smaller choir singing at an actual Valborg celebration)   If you're curious about the rafting in Uppsala during Valborg, here are two videos about that: https://youtu.be/sZ2YcMrPHq0?is=GItRbhvRKSF1kyy8 (rafting in Uppsala during Valborg) https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXwLEeeo_6J/?igsh=aGtzcTg2Z2FyODFk   Other references and sources: https://www.isof.se/utforska/kunskapsbanker/lar-dig-mer-om-arets-namn-och-handelser/handelser/valborgsmassoafton  https://www.nordiskamuseet.se/utforska/hogtider/valborgsmassoafton/ https://www.so-rummet.se/fakta-artiklar/historien-bakom-valborgsfirandet-och-forsta-maj# https://www.etc.se/inrikes/aer-valborg-ett-borgerligt-paahitt
