130: Rune, Root, and Riddle
Jinkies—Patreon pal Trevor has tipped us off to one of America’s stoniest head‑scratchers! When Minnesota farmer Olof Ohman yanked a 200‑pound rune‑covered slab from a tree’s roots in 1898, he may have unearthed proof that Vikings trekked the Midwest in 1362… or maybe just the greatest Scandinavian hoax this side of Valhalla. Join Shane, Josh, and Trevor as we decode hooked‑X runes, weigh Viking voyages against 19th‑century folk art, and face off with Templar conspiracies—all before the Mystery Inc van gets buried in Norse nerd‑mode. Could this stone rewrite history, or is it merely carving out a legendary tall tale? Grab your rune decoder rings and let’s crack the Kensington caper!
