    Can gods die? What happens when the gods grow old?
    Find out in this story from Norse Mythology about the theft of Idun's golden apples of youth and immortality - the secret of the god's everlasting life.
    Involving the Norse trickster Loki.
    At the end, I will talk a bit about the context of this story in Norse magic and religion, as well as putting it in a wider folkloric context.
    Told by Oliver Lavery.

    Genuinely appreciate how hangry Loki gets. I get pretty testy when someone steals my food, too.
