Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to a very special episode of the Take the Black podcast that we’re calling “Two arselings, Two Danes.” With the fourth season of Netflix’s The Last Kingdom landing on April 26, we’re joined by Jeppe Beck Laursen, who plays the devious Haestan; and Magnus Bruun, who plays the always-scheming Cnut. Luckily for us, neither is anything like their murderous Viking characters, and we have a roaring good time talking about all things Last Kingdom.

Don’t forget: Take the Black Podcast is on iTunes, and Google Play! Please subscribe and download from there if you can. Also, you can help us out by giving us a five-star rating and leaving a friendly comment! We’re also now on Spreaker, so try us there, as well.

We cover a ton of ground. Why should we be excited for season 4, and what sets it apart from earlier seasons? Why the horses the real stars of the show? What pranks get played on set? “Who would you rather?” And how we are all adapting to life under quarantine?

We’ve spoken to Beck Laursen and Bruun before, but there is nothing like listening to them tell the stories themselves. We can’t thank them enough for their time. Listen below!
