The Cage Match of Bayeux

June 26, 2026 12:31pm 35 min

Henry, with the help of Bishop Serlo, had just rebranded himself and his knights as the pious leaders of Greater Christian Normandy by going through little more than a ritualized barber shop scene and, while we know it w...

Bishop Serlo's Pop Up Hair Salon

June 06, 2026 2:36pm 43 min

For months, messengers had been arriving from Normandy carrying news of the disorder and chaos that was gripping the Duchy.  Now, normally, this would have been good news for King Henry.  It was no secret that the King w...

William of Mortain and How Some People Never Have Enough Wealth

May 07, 2026 3:32pm 32 min

Some families are just…the worst. You know how it is, there’s the one or two in there that are half decent, but mostly you avoid them too because the rest of the family is just awful. The post 499 – William of Mortain an...

Power and Predictability

April 24, 2026 6:39pm 46 min

The death of Duke Robert’s chief ally, William of Breteuil, and the succession crisis it kicked off, was destabilizing the duchy of Normandy.   And while I’m sure it was a relief that King Henry and Robert of Meulan had ...

That's Me In The Spot. Light.

April 09, 2026 2:54pm 23 min

It was 1103 and things were a mess. And…when are they not? But a major reason for this mess was (oddly) William of Breteuil. Now, as you might recall, William of Breteuil was the firstborn son of the Conqueror’s close fr...

That's Me In The Corner

March 25, 2026 6:25pm 37 min

For the first time since William the Conqueror, there was going to be a primatial council at Westminster Abbey.   This was a HUGE deal.   Like… enormous.  Anselm had been trying to hold a major reform council for years, ...

Power Struggles: Part Two

March 16, 2026 5:29pm 38 min

Ok, let’s return to 1101 and 1102, because Henry’s fight with Anselm, and fight between Henry and the Pope (and the fight between Anselm and the Pope) were …amazingly….only half of the story.   The post 495 – Power Strug...

Power Struggles: Part One

March 01, 2026 2:40pm 35 min

The Price of Peace

February 23, 2026 3:40pm 25 min

The Treaty penned at Alton had avoided outright war, but it wasn’t truly official.  It needed to be finalized at Winchester. The post 493 – The Price of Peace first appeared on The British History Podcast.

The War for Perception

February 12, 2026 10:19am 37 min

In 1668, John Dryden became England’s very first Poet Laureate.  But he had a rival.  No, not just a rival.  A nemesis. This man’s name was Thomas Shadwell, and I can’t overstate how much Dryden hated him. The post 492 –...

All Hats On Deck

January 28, 2026 4:08pm 30 min

Duke Robert Curthose was back in Normandy, having  reclaimed the Duchy unopposed… and now he was looking to assert his claim on England. The post 491 – All Hats On Deck first appeared on The British History Podcast.

Messengers from France

January 16, 2026 1:00pm 27 min

From Normandy With Love

January 09, 2026 5:08pm 40 min

Ok, let’s face it, last year was a lot.  Rampant corruption, threats of war, tyrannical leaders, actual war, a greedy feckless aristocracy, rulers weaponizing the legal system, rulers completely disregarding the legal sy...

Stealing a Wife From God

December 05, 2025 3:02pm 48 min

Edith, the daughter of King Malcolm Canmore, has appeared from time to time in our story and (by this point) she was about 20 years old… and many of those years had been weird ones. The post 487 – Stealing a Wife From Go...

Stealing a Crown from your Brother

November 14, 2025 6:56pm 38 min

The cart carrying the body of King Rufus eventually reached the cathedral at Winchester. And if we are to believe Malmesbury,  blood had been dripping from it from the forest all the way into the Cathedral.  Though, at s...

The First Crusade Sample

October 23, 2025 1:27pm 7 min

Zee runs us through the events and it’s… a lot. The post The First Crusade Sample first appeared on The British History Podcast.

What Happened?

October 16, 2025 4:37pm 38 min

It was a calm August afternoon in Winchester.   The Royal Palace (or potentially the Conqueror’s castle… our scribes aren’t precise when discussing the location, but probably the Palace)… either way, Winchester would hav...

Final Destination: The New Forest

October 04, 2025 4:10pm 1:10

Ok, when we left off, Rufus threw a big “look at me” celebration… and the prevailing response appears to have been “yeah, man. We see you.” And that wasn’t even the worst part of his year. The post 484 – Final Destinatio...

Standing on Ceremony

September 12, 2025 5:47pm 47 min

The final two years of the 11th century feel like someone was trying to tie up a bunch of plotlines before the start of season 12. Things are moving fast, everybody is suddenly in different countries, and inevitably…some...

Eye for an Eye

September 05, 2025 4:32pm 27 min

Alright.  When we left off, I mentioned that while Rufus was in Normandy, things in England had been getting interesting in his absence. Let’s start with Bishop Walkelin. The post 482 – Eye for an Eye first appeared on T...
