  • On the Supremacy of the Pope with Patrick Nold

    On the Supremacy of the Pope with Patrick Nold
    Mar 12 2026
    When the king is semi-divine and the pope speaks for God, himself, who is the boss of whom? It’s a question most of us don’t spend our days contemplating, but in the Middle Ages, this philosophical debate loomed large. Just who had the final say on planet Earth? And how did you prove it? This week, Danièle speaks with Patrick Nold about the case for the pope’s ultimate power, why it was so urgent in the early fourteenth century, and why an obscure Dominican friar came to the pope’s defense.

    The Welles-Ros Bible with Kathryn A. Smith
    Mar 5 2026
    Much in debate in England in the fourteenth century was how – and even if – the Bible should be translated into everyday language. Enter Maud de Ros, Lady Welles, the woman responsible for the most complete surviving translation of the Bible in the Anglo-Norman language. This week, Danièle speaks with Kathryn A. Smith about the remarkable woman behind the Welles-Ros Bible, the circumstances under which it was made, and the ins and outs of translating the Bible in the Middle Ages.

    Sir Tristrem with Thomas H. Crofts
    Feb 26 2026
    As we wrap up the month, we have time to squeeze in one last love story. A tale packed full of potions, princesses, and even puppies, this one is right up there with Lancelot and Guinevere. It’s the story of Tristan and Isolde. This week, Danièle speaks with Thomas H. Crofts about the Middle English Sir Tristrem, how its author adapted the poem for a new audience, and the wild and wonderful story of one of medieval Europe’s favourite knights.

the narrator has a voice that radiates a smile. I could listen to her read a phone book.

Danielle is a delight to hear every week, and it's always great to hear from Peter at the end of every episode. I'm so grateful to these two, especially Danielle, for teaching me so much about the middle ages over the years. The awesome guests and Danielle's instant warmth and easy rapport makes the information easy to comprehend and absorb, and everyone's enthusiasm for the subject and study of all things medieval is positively infectious! Keep up the incredible work!

Incredible and accessible middle ages!
