From the fall of the Roman Empire to the rise of the modern world: history ebbs and flows over the centuries. From @wonderymedia, get new episodes on Thursdays.
Planning to incorporate episodes of @TidesHistory into homeschooling my kids over the next however many weeks/months. Seems perfect for the purpose. Thanks to @KDPluymers for the suggestion! #USIH#twitterstorians
I am continually in awe at @Patrick_Wyman and @TidesHistory for the incredible and detail that is brought continually to me in his podcast. Wow. Just flipping wow!
If you’ve been listening to my podcast it’s worth tuning into @TidesHistory.
@Patrick_Wyman doesn’t mention Ireland (it focuses a lot on Italy & the Ottoman Empire) but it gives a sense how our history takes place at the margins. It’s useful context.
Also it’s a masterful pod
This week the RAI is listening to our Harmsworth Professor Peter Mancall on the @TidesHistory podcast with @Patrick_Wyman talking about his new book: The Trials of Thomas Morton: An Anglican Lawyer, His Puritan Foes, and the Battle for a New England podcasts.apple.com/ro/podcas…
🎧 LISTEN: The Pilgrims and Puritans dominate our understanding of early America and the future of U.S. history.
Yet their success and long-term influence weren't inevitable. @USC Dornsife historian Peter Mancall explains on @TidesHistory.

Pretty sure I first heard this from @Patrick_Wyman on @TidesHistory. One of those things that seems so obvious when you think about it for more than a second
So here's why I think this much-hyped paper - "The Justinianic Plague: An Inconsequential Pandemic?" is deeply wrong. This matters because its approach is superficially empirical and quantitative, but the data fundamentally doesn't speak to the problem they want it to.
Some Tides of History news: Starting in June, we'll be leaving the later Middle Ages and early modern period behind. Our new destination will be prehistory, from the dawn of humanity to the Iron Age.
.@TidesHistory Podcast sits down w/ @dgjones, author of CRUSADERS, to chat about why this long series of conflicts mattered so much to medieval people & why they're still relevant today.

If you aren't subscribed to @TidesHistory, you should be. It's an amazing history podcast and especially good if you're interested in the medieval and early modern period.
