- This funny and accurate!
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!

I’ve only listened to a few so far, but the last 1 I was listening to I just had to stop it. It’s was the 1 about Mary Queen of Scots and Rizzo.

United Kingdom2 years ago - Good, but not my cup of tea
I have listened to a few episodes now and maybe I selected poorly. From the ones I listened to if you were to break down the time spent about 10% would be the events leading up to the topic, 10% the topic in the title, 10% the caster’s personal lives, and 70% to related tangents. It feels like they gloss over the topic very quickly. Part of this may be due to lack of primary sources. But I will say, they are very intelligent, articulate, and have done their research. They also seem like they... more
