Episode Notes

This week we're joined by Dr Eleanor Janegameister for some full frontal medievalism. Dr Janega is a historian who specialises in late medieval sexuality, apocalyptic thought, propaganda, and the urban experience. Described as a 'sad, sad medievalist' she is the brain and dump-truck booty behind going-medieval.com, a blog where she discusses the medieval influences on the everyday world in a bid to get us through this garbage fire of a century. In this episode we ask Dr Janega some key questions: How do we pronounce her name? What is the medieval period and why the heck is it so long? Why are illuminated bushels of dicks so popular? What is the ideal medieval body?
