  • A lot of fun

    A well-researched, well-written podcast narrated by a husband and wife team with a charming dynamic. An educational and amusing listen! The most recent episode discusses several Beowulf translations and has really opened my eyes to new ways to think of this poem. Absolutely worth a listen.

  • “Your arm’s off!”

    Great fun! I love the snippets from Monty Python. Also very interesting to hear how our understanding of this period has evolved.
