Surely all of us can understand how infuriating it can be when a neighbor builds some damn thing or other that blocks our view. And then won't take it down. And maybe even laughs. What to do? Take the case to court, obviously. But what if we lose th... more
In April, 1321, the lepers of Southern France found themselves accused of poisoning the community wells, with some sort of powder. They were, the theory went, attempting to spread leprosy to the rest of the population. They weren't doing that, or any... more
It's our April Fools' Episode, in which we explain how it is we know that things purported to have existed in the Middle Ages did not actually exist! It's late, for April Fools' Day, by any known calendar, since it's the end of June, and also the Bis... more

This podcast has the soothing quality of overhearing two charming people at the table next to yours at a coffee shop discuss medieval true crime punctuated by the occasional f word, to great effect.
Anne and Michele show us how to understand and dissect sources, how connected our society is to the Middle Ages, and how Sir Walter Scott was a bad medievalist. Thank you to you both! Slay! (Figuratively speaking)
I haven’t even listened to any of these. I haven’t even looked any of their names or anything. The title of the podcast is really cool.
Five stars
This is a FASCINATING dive into medieval history with two quirky, hilarious hosts. This is endlessly entertaining and I learn so much in every episode!
So entertaining and well-referenced! I’ve learned a lot about Medieval Europe in my time including an undergrad degree in the topic. For the events I’m familiar with, the discussion is very accurate, and I appreciate them citing sources. I’d recommend it for anyone even vaguely familiar with the European Middle Ages, as a fun way to zoom into events and people, behaving well and badly!
Been binge listening since I found it about a month ago, really engaging and interesting historical insight. Fun hosts who are clearly very passionate about their work!

A lively history podcast blends medieval scholarship with true-crime storytelling, often weaving in forensic methods, primary-source discussion, and cultural context to illuminate events from the Middle Ages.
