Vikings

Vikings... The world alone brings to mind a world of tall, bearded  barbarians.  Plundering and pillaging all in their path as they make way on massive wooden ships.  Massive battle axes and fiery funeral pyres pave their path through the lands.  Who were these giants of the North?What kept them going as they tore through villages? And where did they get those cool hats?  

Follow us as we begin to explore some Viking history, rituals, and food on this weeks episode.  #Dyingtoeat #GreatNorth #Norse #Norway #Scandinavia #England #France #Normandy # recipe #food #death #guyscooktoo #scottparish

Haida

It has been said that when the fog rolls in on the coast of the Pacific Northwest, it appears swiftly, quietly, and at times, deadly. The fog also doesn't arrive alone, it brings ghosts. The Haida natives built an unparalleled reputation whilst moving silently among their prey. Come with us as we explore what happened to these once great and quiet warriors. #history #food #fun #dyingtoeat #guyscooktoo #silent #warriors

Sicliy

A deeply rooted island. Beautiful blue seas. This crossroad nestled in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.  Under the shadows of ancient volcanos, are neighborhoods built in perfect rows. Inhabited by strong communities of people that cover numerous generations on the island.  You will also find unrest, strength, families ravaged by centuries of invasions and never ending foreign influences. In the end, Sicily is substantially more than just a hodgepodge of tradition.  Step foot with us upon the island of Sicily, as we hear about mummified saints on display, professional wailers, and of course, the Mafia.

Nauru

Drug money, battles over mining rights, passports to nowhere, and THE most overweight nation per capita in the world; sound familiar?

Come with us as we explore, Nauru. That's right!

A place most people have never even heard of existing.

Madagascar

What lies under the jungle canopy on the far away island of Madagascar? Many of us immediately think of that movie of cute talking animals.
