Gone Medieval

I’ve enjoyed Gone Medieval since its start. With the arrival of Dr. Janega it has improved upon itself. Bring on more! Explain the Husserites!! More about the Hapsburgs. Jane in Seattle

I thoroughly enjoyed this show every week but the latest with Dr. Ada Palmer went to a whole other level. It was great! Combining lots of new information about then"Renaissance" with an hour of some of the funniest content in any realm. Dan Snow or Goalhanger you need to snap Dr. Palmer up.

I’ve decided to stop listening. Cat Jarman was a wonderful host with a lot of insight, and she was really good at prompting the guests to talk about interesting things. I highly recommend her episodes. Matt Lewis has always been pretty good and quite personable, though I tend to listen to his episodes less often than Cat’s because my interests and his overlap less. Eleanor Janega’s episodes are so bad though. As an American I’m not one to hate on American accents (or on Americans who borrow British slang, as she apparently does), but she demonstrates an appalling lack of charity for those whose belief systems are different than hers, to the point that it’s offensive to modern Christians and condescending to those whose stories she’s supposedly trying to tell. I did appreciate the one guest who kept pushing back on the rampant condescension, but pretty often she’d talk over her anyway. And Eleanor does the majority of the most interesting topics now!

I really like this podcast I found it last year and I really enjoyed listening to it keep up 😊💙
