SEASON 6: The Other Norman Conquest

EPISODE 139: Henry IV Wants More Than Some Kingdoms

Call this one a historical pit stop. In the whirlwind of 1081, a few crucial threads got lost in the chaos—and that’s on me. This addendum episode fills in the missing pieces, offering key context that deepens everything we’ve been covering. Because let’s face it: history isn’t neat, and it sure as hell isn’t linear. When you realize something’s been skipped or misunderstood, you don’t just press on—you circle back and set it right. Thanks for sticking with the story, bumps and all.
