How do you do the World of Darkness in the happiest places on earth? What’s magick like when the sun doesn’t set for weeks at a time? How does the Syndicate deal with social democracy? What are trolls really like and what is a well-pisser? Karl Erik Larsen Hoftaniska of the Symposium Podcast answers these questions and more.

Correction! Erik corrected himself to say that the Nordic countries were Social Democracies but the sound for that portion was garbled.
