Wonderful medieval sampler, wonderful presenter.
I usually prefer a more chronological approach to my history but Ive really enjoyed hearing about topics I might not have encountered (my favourite episode was the one on béguines I think). I especially like the interviews, medieval stories, and deep dives into particular topics. the list style episodes aren’t for me personally. Some topics I’d love to see would be the Iceland sagas, the Mabinogion, and maybe a few deep dives into early medieval pagan religions and how Christianity spread across Europe. Daniele if you read this don’t listen to that other review, please continue to laugh at your own jokes! Your pure joy in the content is part of what makes the podcast so enjoyable, I feel like I can always hear you talking through a smile or on the verge of a laugh and I personally think it’s great. Your cheer is a pure delight, keep doing you!

I was lucky enough to come in to this podcast from the first episode and I’ve enjoyed all of them. There’s been a good selection of guests. The love for the subject comes through with real enthusiasm - I remember laughing alone in the episode about Monty Python and the Holy Grail!

Great podcast and interesting topics. I would give it a 5 but for Danièle’s constant giggling which is very annoying. Maybe it is due to nervousness but she should try to rein it in.

I am a Medieval History fan who thoroughly enjoys and highly recommends these FYI snippets of history, archeology, art, society, culture, politics and warfare. Equally fascinating are the interviews with professional medievalists.
