  • 142: The Norman Sack of Rome
    2024/10/29

    One of the most devastating events in the Middle Ages occurs on this episode. The fact that it isn’t talked about more is, frankly, criminal. And of all of our protagonists and antagonists in this season of the podcast, you may be surprised who it affects the most.

  • 141: Castel Sant'Angelo
    2024/10/06

    Pope Gregory VII is stuck in Rome awaiting his knight in shining armor, Duke Robert Guiscard, who just returned to quell the uprisings in Apulia and Calabria. Henry IV is within reach of his life’s ambition, and Emperor Alexios is broken but not finished. And there is one place that is at the center of it all: Castel Sant’Angelo.

    Robert Guiscard returns to Apulia, Count Roger deals with his own issues back in Sicily, and Pope Gregory VII is driven into hiding. The period of 1082 - 1084 is a rollercoaster.

  • 139: Henry IV Wants More Than Some Kingdoms
    2024/09/22

    This is an addendum episode. I realized that in the course of narrating some pretty exciting and fast-paced events in 1081, I regretfully felt that there were a few crucial explanations I failed to fully explain. These are very important to understand the entire context, and I felt it necessary to fill in the gaps before moving forward. But this is the process of understanding history, isn’t it? If you get something wrong or fail to include something, it’s better to take the time and fix the oversight rather than ignore it. Thanks for understanding, everyone. Studying history isn’t as linear and simple as those textbooks make it out to be, is it?

  • 137: 1081: Battle of Durazzo
    2024/09/08

    Alexios Komnenos versus Robert Guiscard in a clash for the ages: The Battle of Durazzo. Is Guiscard’s invasion of Eastern Rome even feasible? Without Durazzo, it’s not. Durazzo is a must-win situation for both sides.
