The Medieval Archives Podcast explores the history, people, stories, and mysteries of the Middle Ages. Join historian and host Gary, the Archivist, as we dig into the real medieval world, from kings, knights, popes, battles, and political intrigue to ordinary life, strange beliefs, and forgotten stories. Each episode takes a closer look at the people and events that shaped the medieval world, separating history from legend without taking all the fun out of it. Whether you’re a longtime medieval history enthusiast or just curious about the Middle Ages, there’s always something waiting in the Archives.
