The Odinic vs. Tyrrhic are the two most fundamental parts of our European folk-soul. Mike has been talking about this for a few months now and it's starting to gain traction, so he and Dave go deeper into the concept. Originally developed by the philologist Georges Dumézil, this duality throws important light on who we are, why we're different (even from each other), and why the "Faustian" is not our innate nature but something incomplete and defective.
