Barry would’ve loved to deliver this in person, but unfortunately the burn this year conflicted with an ayahuasca ceremony in Chile, so as a close second he’ll be pre-recording his gratitude on video.

Fjörgyn's Lair

The Viking Longboat was a potent symbol of life, livelihood, one’s journey through life, and the afterlife, and was used by the Norse for transport, in trade, in warfare, and as a burial vessel for centuries.
