  • How an Empire Ends: Germanic Heroic Legend

    How an Empire Ends: Germanic Heroic Legend
    Aug 14 2025
    ⁠⁠⁠⁠Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! Long after the smoke from the battlefields died down, long after the ravens had eaten their fill, the Migration Era lived on in Germanic heroic legend, well into the Middle Ages. For centuries after the battles and events of that era, people throughout Europe were crafting legends and sagas that repurposed and mythologized those events, sometimes recasting major figures from that time into villains and heroes of a later saga. Goths and Huns figured prominently. And that is our subject today: who got mythologized, and how. Sponsors and Advertising This episode is sponsored by Taskrabbit.

  • How an Empire Ends: Rise and Fall of the Visigothic Kingdom

    How an Empire Ends: Rise and Fall of the Visigothic Kingdom
    Jul 31 2025
    ⁠⁠⁠Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! We've told you the story of the Ostrogoths, the Amal ruling family, who built an imperial dynasty only to see that rulership dissolve within two generations. But what happened to their cousins, the Visigoths? The Tervingii tribe and the Balthi royal family? Alaric’s Goths? Turns out they lasted much longer. But they weren’t necessarily the ones who had it most together. Join us for a vast, sweeping tale of constant regicide and usurpation, vast internal religious and cultural divisons, and war on all sides—through which the Visigoths hung on longer than anyone thought they would.
