Series 1 is a concise social and political history of England from the 5th to 11th centuries. Series 2 is a social history how society and lordship worked during and directly after the migration period. It then looks at how that culture evolved, as the impact of economic development and the Viking invasions wrought changes in lordship and political structures. It looks also at the landscape - how it affected peoples' lives, how the Anglo Saxons shaped it in turn - and some of the marks ordinary people left for us to see today. And lastly, it considers whether the Norman conquest effected deep change or merely accelerated processes already underway. Sister series of The History of England podcast, with which is shares the contents of Series 1. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Pay attention, folks, THIS is how to podcast. David Crowther is an artiste of podcasting, though he might cringe at that snooty description. Engaging, intelligent, informative, and witty, he's far and away my favorite podcaster. I marvel at how his delivery of his well-prepared content comes across as seemingly spontaneous. Yep, anyone who can have me on the edge of my seat waiting to hear the next new episode about Anglo-Saxon history has to be an artiste!

It’s great to find a history of this period that focuses on “ordinary” life, not just the rulers and political events.
Great stuff

I so enjoy this podcast. The cheeky humor never gets in the way of the earnest love and care for the subject of life in early medieval England. Before it was England. So really that one wet island in the years between 500 and 1066 CE. Anyway, if you like early medieval history peppered with Gen X nerd culture references, this may be for you. It certainly is for me.
