Welcome to a series of bonus episode where I interview professionals in the field of Medieval Studies about their research! In this first episode, I interview a very close friend of mine, Dr. Carolyne Howle-Outlaw, about her research in Irish Archaeology.

Ian and I talk about Viking movies and shows and discuss just how lore-accurate (or inaccurate they are).

Sarah and I discuss the modern Arthurian tale of Legendborn by Tracy Deonn. This book means a lot to us and I hope you enjoy the discussion!

In this first episode, my colleague Sarah and I discuss what medievalism means to us and what the very brief overview of the history of medievalism is.
