Are you going to make an episode that continues the narrative soon? the last one I saw was during the reign of Philip ll Augustus.
I LOVE the FHP. Gary’s passionate and methodical research and love of French culture and language make this a must for anyone who truly desires to understand what makes France tick. I have learnt so much not only about France but European and world history, it’s hard to pinpoint one strand or episode. Hint: order it from oldest to new and start from the first episode to get the most of it.
Great show with a wonderful host
What a great interview Gary did of a fantastic guest in the last podcast! Really nuanced questions that brought out fascinating information about French history and culture from his expert guest. Just another great episode of a great podcast. Thanks!
