Just like at the end of the Viking Age and at the start of the High Middle Ages, we've now covered enough of the Medieval period to warrant an "everything else we haven't mentioned yet" style episode! Lots of things come up in the research that don't fit neatly into the chronological narrative, but they are still worth knowing, so we decided to talk about them in a dedicated episode.
Listen and enjoy some trivia, facts and stories about life in Medieval Sweden, as we discuss everything from medicine and skeletons to Hnefatafl and Tug of War!
Includes minor spoilers about our next special episode and keep listening for some rubbish whistling after the outro music...
