Hi guys,

Welcome to the first episode of the Leopard and the Lily - a podcast exploring the history and times of the Hundred Years' War.

As this is my very first episode recorded, it's a little on the rough side. I apologize for the pops - the effects I put on the recording made the "p's" really hard...

As mentioned in the episode:

• For the podcast "From Wittenburg to Westphalia: The Wars of the Reformations" http://wittenbergtowestphaliapodcast.weebly.com/ (For the walking tour, I recommend episodes 3 and 4, but it's all great stuff!)
• http://www.hundredyearswarman.com/

I hope you enjoy the show.
