- Great podcast
Very well-researched and vividly retold. Episode art is so poor and distracting that I have to avoid looking at it in order to enjoy.

United States3 months ago An enthralling listen. I am a London Tour Guide, and this material is GOLD. Telling the whole narrative is a vast enterprise. Saul you are to be congratulated on a heroic campaign. An epic. One for the ages I have a question though. I guide at All Hallows by the Tower. Founded 675 AD by Ethelnerga of ESSEX. The Abbey it is beholden to is Barking not Canterbury or London. The date and time do not chime with the Mercia theory...please explain
Podcast Addict55 months agoChris O'Donnell- Great stuff
Nice balance between detailed and accessible, from someone who’s clearly fascinated by our city and it shows. I look forward to every new episode like a little treat for the brain.
