Awful
This podcast has a decidedly anti-Christian tone. It is filled with revisionist history and pc myths, attempting to portray the Christians as greedy invaders attacking peaceful Muslim nations. The narrator completely glosses over the Muslim aggression which led to the necessity of the Crusades. Islam has always desired to conquer Europe, it has attempted to do so many times and with great success. At various points throughout history Islam forcibly invaded and conquered Spain, southern France, Sicily, southern Italy, Greece, and many of the eastern European nations. This is why Asia Minor is now called Turkey, and Constantinople named Istanbul. Indeed, this threat to Europe lasted for over 1000 years, until the fall of the Ottoman Empire during WWI. This Brit needs to pick up some primary sources.

What would seem like a dry topic is brought alive by the characters. A great listen! Thanks.

like most right wing nutbars in America, ticktock30 thinks factual information like that presented here is biased if it somehow rankles her extremist beliefs. i see no bias here, its ancient history. i love this podcast.

I love this podcast. Not super smooth but quirky and fun but really informative. I'm approaching the end of the first crusade and loving it. Well done Sharyn. Keep it up!Read full review »
