    125. Addicted to Bloodbaths
    Apr 5 2026

    It is possible to be addicted to many things; sugar, gambling, cigarettes are just a few. But Duke Karl is addicted to something else and that is a good old fashioned bloodbath. Needing to consolidate his power now King Sigismund has left the country, Karl turns his attention to castle commanders, members of the council and even admin assistants in his quest to secure the loyalty of everyone left in Sweden. It's extreme, but will it work?

    You can see the painting of Sten Banér that we mention late in the episode via the link here.

    124. Karl So Far

    Flatpack is back!

    After our break we thought it would be good to jump back into the timeline with a recap of one our current main characters, Duke Karl. We look at how his upbringing as a son of Gustav Vasa prepared him for rule. Also, how did watching two of his brothers mess up being king prepare Karl for fighting his nephew for the throne. Let's get ready for the 1600s! You can find out more information about the podcast on our website, send us an email and follow us on social media here:

I’m a complete novice to Swedish history and in only 5 episodes in, but I must say this is very well-paced and informative, and a great balance between fairly deep dives (esp. compared to other Scandinavian and/or Nordic history podcasts I’ve found) and light chat between a couple of intelligent, personable hosts. Looking forward to the rest of it!

Informative and well paced
