This week we speak to author, historian, podcaster and lecturer Dr. Eleanor Janega.

This week Eleanor really let fly that the Dark Ages is so-called because of a lack of sources, not an intellectual decline among the people... and takes a moment out to correct the one thing that put Paul off history at school.

You can follow Eleanor on Twitter @goingmedieval. You can check out her regular podcast by following this link - Going Medieval Podcast, and you can buy her book The Middle Ages: A Graphic History right here.
