Smart, Fun, and Incredibly Insightful
To All Prospective Viewers. This is potentially the best history podcast I have ever watched. While most podcasts trudge their way through with loads of sources or rely entirely on one or two, the Dark Ages Podcast finds a way to do it all with so little. Scrounging together modern and olden scholars arguments and insights, sources from the day, and his own insight into a compelling narrative about one of history’s most glossed over periods. The early Dark Ages is incredibly fascinating and the huge tangled web of political, military, and religious issues is told beautifully in a way that really sets up everything in the modern day in how the Roman Empire and migrating peoples became the Europe, Africa, and Middle East of today. I cannot recommend a single podcast more.

I love in particular the history of the Ostrogoths (as a kid I read Felix Dahn’s “Ein Kampf um Rom”, and Ravenna is one of my favorite places in Italy). The author’s dry sense of humor adds spice to the narrative.
