To mark the launch of season 5, we are dishing out a free sample of This is History Plus. Each week Dan and producer Georgia explore strange tangents and delicious Medieval gossip.
This episode serves up some of the most excessive Mediaeval shopping lists and feasts including an out-of-place porpoise and several thousand chickens.
Plus, why Robert the Bruce killed someone in a church, and was Edward II a jock or a nerd?
This Is History Plus also includes hours of interviews with celebrated historians, the entire backlog of main episodes ad-free and the chance to ask Dan your questions. You can try it out with a seven day trial: head to historypod.com or click ‘try free’ on Apple podcasts.

England’s greatest warrior-king Henry V is gone, and on the throne… a baby.
In season 9 of This Is History: A Dynasty to Die For, acclaimed historian Dan Jones charts the turbulent story of Henry VI, an infant monarch whose reign is beset by relentless struggles for power both at home and abroad as we enter a brutal era of English civil war - the Wars of the Roses.
Scandal, madness and witchcraft form a backdrop to the young king’s troubles in England, while in France, Henry V’s hard-won legacy begins to crumble as Joan of Arc enters to rally the French fightback.
That’s all for you to discover on season 9 of This Is History — A Dynasty to Die For.
