After some technical difficulties, a combo episode of three yule-lads is now live.

A big episode of the yule-lads today. Here are the Icelandic versions Sjöundi var Hurðaskellir, - sá var nokkuð klúr, ef fólkið vildi í rökkrinu fá sér vænan dúr. Hann var ekki sérlega hnugginn yfir því, þó harkalega marraði hjörunum í. Skyrjarmur, sá áttundi, var skelfilegt n...

An image of a classic askur: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4c/Askur.JPG/2880px-Askur.JPG Sá sjötti, Askasleikir, var alveg dæmalaus. - Hann fram undan rúmunum rak sinn ljóta haus. Þegar fólkið setti askana fyrir kött og hund, hann slunginn var að ná þeim og sleik...

Christmas is only nine days away and we're going on strong with the podcast. Today it's Pottaskefill or Potscraper.

Sá fimmti, Pottaskefill, var skrítið kuldastrá. - Þegar börnin fengu skófir hann barði dyrnar á. Þau ruku' upp, til að gá að hvort gestur væri á ferð. Þá flýtti 'ann sér að pottinum og fékk sér góðan verð. Our webstore: https://www.grayowl.is Email: [email protected]

Sá fjórði, Þvörusleikir, var fjarskalega mjór. Og ósköp varð hann glaður, þegar eldabuskan fór. Þá þaut hann eins og elding og þvöruna greip, og hélt með báðum höndum, því hún var stundum sleip. Our webstore: https://www.grayowl.is Email: [email protected]

On schedule with the thirteen Yule-lads from Iceland.
Here I talk a little about the third one.

Stúfur hét sá þriðji stubburinn sá. Hann krækti sér í pönnu, þegar kostur var á. Hann hljóp með hana í burtu og hirti agnirnar, sem brunnu stundum fastar við barminn hér og þar. Our webstore: https://www.grayowl.is

A short but sweet episode from yesterday about the first yule-lad that came to town during last night. Did you know Iceland has 13 santas? We call them Yule-lads.

After a long time away I'm finally getting back into it. This is the part of the poem today: Stekkjarstaur kom fyrstur, stinnur eins og tré. Hann laumaðist í fjárhúsin og lék á bóndans fé. Hann vildi sjúga ærnar,- þá var þeim ekki um sel, því greyið hafði staurfætur, - það gekk ...
