When acquiring my education at university , I took a great deal of history courses. I have always been fascinated with the past. And find myself fairly knowledgeable. Most documentaries or programs sort of regurgitate information and I find it lacking something interesting or that different factor. I absolutely love these videos. You have fresh perspective and the input really gets one thinking. It's fresh. I can't get enough.
I enjoyed the voice so I left it playing while I nap. I had the most bizarre dreams. Yes, the voice is lovely, but the content does not make for a nice dream. :D
When I first found your channel a few days ago I figured you had hundreds of thousands or millions of subs based on the quality and amount of work you put into your videos. Keep it up man!
This is a great channel I literally discovered 2 days ago and I've already binge watched all your videos. I like your calm, talkative tone and the images you put are relevant and don't change too quickly on screen (I sound so old haha). Basically what I'm saying is that the presentation style is great and I'm looking forward to your videos. Good job 👏
Can NatGeo, Discovery, or HC please give this guy a show! This is the best thing on RUclips bar-none! Also, I have a question! If someone was banished from their village, would their families or friends be penalized for helping them? Bringing them food, blankets, etc. outside of the village jurisdiction? Just curious because the 15 year old probably struggled to eat/survive after stealing the cloak.
I have a life I'm completely ignoring because of these videos. Help! I thought I'd already discovered all the good history channels. I hope he's teaching history somewhere. His voice and presentation are superior and, in my case, apparently addictive.

A lot of content on this channel. I’ve been a subscriber since you first made it… quality content and a lot of dedication put into this channel. Thanks bro.
They are. In the video's description, it says "A bonus compilation of some of our videos for you guys" It is not one long episode, but a compilation of already made and uploaded videos.
Amazing channel! I'm so greatful I came across this cuz I've been doing research (also just super into the time period) and I really enjoy your nuanced take and interesting topics. Thank you for the excellent quality as well!

@@john-doemcalias4759 the guy who narrates these videos sound so much like the guy on the Alt Shift X channel. Earaly similar voice. But really relaxing.
“Crying and sweating are also offered alternatives to intercourse.. so not much has changed”. Dude, the dry humor is killing me. I literally spit out my coffee. Which I’m sure the church will find a way to make a sin. Well done!
I'm happy that the guy won the duel for his wife against the rapist. Imagine the glory and triumph he must have felt that day in front of the huge crowd and how proud his wife must have been of him.
I have suffered with Quincy many years ago. My throat swelled up and it felt like swallowing broken glass. landed me in hospital for a couple of nights on fluids and antibiotics.
The part where you said "And a partridge in a pear tree" haha I was so hoping you would say that because I said it out loud while you were listing off all of the other things 😅
If rape isn't supposed to result in pregnancies, how then did they explain pregnancies in cases of rape in times of war? I'm sure those must have been common place.
2:09:30 Just thought to say I found your channel randomly weeks ago and been binge watching it. I have R ectal cancer and get down about it because multiple surgerys, wait lists but watching your content is like being transported to another realm or existence where everything is mystical and fascinating yet scary. Where I don't exsist in the weak body nor think about I can't have s ex fitness nor do I think of pain even when you talk about morbid stuff. I don't exist I mearly watch in awe in this fantasy land. Dam this is probably how dnd or nerds feel. But this feels great. Good channel dude.
“Oh that’s kind of fun the married couple gets to smack each other a bit to settle a dispute that’s kind of fun” the whole execution or buried alive thing kind of puts a downer on it though.
So, in a recent movie, the French court said “we all know a woman cannot get pregnant if she is raped. She must enjoy it to get pregnant.” Is it true that they thought that? (This was in the 14th century)
ACTUALLY. During the middle ages, it was thought that a woman couldn't get prego unless she had an orgasm, SO ACCORDING TO THE CHURCH , the husband was obligated to make his wife orgasm every time they had sex, because having kids was a sacred thing.
@@TheWinters63 hey dummy, in the middle ages the husband was obligated to make his wife have an orgasm every time they had sex, because having children was considered sacred. AND, a wife could divorce her husband for bad breath. You must be a dude to think it's better today. If you ever get a ride in a time machine, go back and let them show you how.
I can easily remember the days when the dentists drill was a belt driven device. The drill went around so slowly ones head vibrated. My Chinese dentists name was * * Oh. Long gone now.
Theres a reason horse theft was worse than stealing a cloak. People rely on the horse for survival. Comparing the 2 crimes is like comparing grand theft auto to shop lifting. Even today those bring entirely different sentences.
I don’t understand how this video doesn’t have more views….and how this channel doesn’t have more subs. Thank you for putting out free content like this for people who love history!
"having sex with a goat without being married is worse than having sex with a goat whilst being married" 😂 not sure if that rule still applies these days...
The school System has failed us in every way. Especially with history. All of my history teachers were basketball Or football coaches who didn’t care at all and we just run through a book and fill out a quiz. Shame
I heard somewhere that some of the lower classes could read and write and even do math, they were just taught by family members and in their own language/ grammar, not latin tho oc. The same text about that also stated that in the middle ages you were illiterate if you couldn´t read or write latin, so today most of us are also considered "illiterate" in that regard. Idk if that´s true, it might depend on the time period, (and maybe region?) since the middle ages span from the year 500 untill 1500.
While learning about these absurdities and needless tragedies, it is worthwhile to keep in mind that most of the "madness," cruelty, and ignorance of medieval times was actively created, endorsed, promoted, and practiced by Christian churches and their agents who operated righteously under the delusion that they were "doing God's work."
You need to do more studying . Husbands were not instructed to make sure their wives had an irgssm every time they had sex, because having kids was sacred. 😉. And a woman could divorce her hubby for bad breath . BUT HEY, today a guy is not obligated to any such thing, and women get told by 'the authorities" (church and king government) that they are never free unless they get their uterus scraped out with a knife and all the dude has to do is fork over a little cash. Progress?
I'm 7 minutes in and did you just say that they thought a woman couldn't urinate if her hymen was still intact? Did literally no one ever see a female baby urinate?
OH MY GOD I JUST FOUND THIS VIDEO?? I LOVE WATCHING THESE VIDEOS WHEN IM WORKING ON SLMETJING OR TRYING TO SLEEP BUT I ALWAYS HAVE TO PAUSE TO CHANGE THE VIDEO
Growing up, i'm 49, in rural USA with a WASPy father & Irish catholic mother, It's horrifying to see how long that sexual mores & myths have clung on since middle ages. 😰
It’s hard to imagine being married so young but then you remember that a lot of women died in child birth and most people didn’t live to be that old anyway.
So glad I'm a woman who grew up in the 21st century, I sometimes think about where I'd go if I could go back in time but then I remember that it would be way more fun if i were a man 😭😂
Hey, does that 2st part have ESO Online music? I've fallen asleep to that tune many times and wake up dead in the game. Because I walked off a cliff. 😆
Women, except for nobles, were expected to spin wool whenever they were sitting down and “relaxing” by the fire at night, when it was too dark to do other work. The only downtime they got was during sleep, unlike men.
