I agree with you that History does not predict the future. I often tell my students that History teaches us the achievements, successes, and mistakes of our ancestors.And then History reminds us that the human is the only animal stupid enough to stumble twice over the same stone.
I described the TV show The Tudors as 2 shows: a costume drama for Catherine of Aragorn and Thomas Woolsey, historical retelling of the English reformation for More and Cromwell, and London 90210 for everyone else
Anne abundannce of puns there
Absolutely enjoyed this! Nurse that hangover and cough!
It was my birthday on Saturday!
I'm full of admiration that Dan managed this episode while "very tired". When I'm "very tired", I just want coca cola, solitude and sleep.
Feel better, Dude. Thanks for being you

And again you were on Facebook and didn't tell us! That hangover must be massive!
Beer doesn't cure a cough, so please drink less, take better care of your books, get plenty of rest, and I love this podcast.
Hi Dan -I am in Seville at the mo - this morning we went to the Alcazar Palace absolutely stunning and centered round our old mate Pedro the Cruel.
You realise how incredible our ancestors were- with capacity to create something we could not even get close to today
Hopes for an early recovery
I was watching Monty Python and the Holy Gail when this dropped. I was at the historian... So you have perfect timing as ever! 😏
