Wittenberg to Westphalia

In today's episode we discuss the complex set of ideological, political, and economic processes that impacted the lives of non-normative populations in Medieval Europe, and how this affected daily life. There's a lot going on in this episode, but the most important thing is that Andrew mixed up "Big Band" with "Big Beat," and the result is awesome. Intermission music: Combustibles - In Da MoodOutro music: ProleteR - April Showers Hosted on Acast.

How do we deal with difference? This is one of the most fundamental questions humans confront when organizing societies, from the moment on the playground when we realize that the other kids might hold different views from us on things like the rules of baseball, whether or not that was a strike, and whether or not someone has a big stupid face. In the next few episodes we will look at how medieval Europeans dealt with differences of faith, ethnicity, gender, and physical health. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In today's episode we interview a genuine lapsed Catholic to learn about the religious life of a normal person in the modern Catholic Church. This is methodologically problematic, but we are going for a flavor not like gospel truth.Andrew had fun editing this one, here's the songs playing in the background:"For You" - Zeeky Beats"Sunsets" Aso"Happiness" - CrazyJazz"Return" - Mingu5"Your Favorite Place" - Joey Pecoraro"Out For A Walk" - Mingu5"Waves" - Matt Quentin"Dreams" - Joakim Karud"ill never know _ green tea" - nymanoI am hoping these are all under some kind of creative commons license and I'm not gonna get sued. Anyone who wants to sue me can reach me at [email protected] Feedback about the show can be directed, as usual, to [email protected] please stop emailing Andrew about the content that was a joke.

They don't call him Otto the Great because of his standing crust pie recipe if you catch my meaning, although it was legendary. There is a reason Adelheid liked him so much. Pro tip fellas, learn to make a good meat pie and you will never be lonely. because even if it doesn't work out, you will have pie. And really, what has a lady done for you lately that was as good as a pie? In my case the answer is "finally got the baby to sleep" but I am sure some of you don't have ladies as awesome as Di in your life. She is better than pie.
