About this episode

I answer the final batch of questions which came in after 1453. They are mostly fun speculation or about me and the podcast. Our Constantine Acrostic C hristianized the Roman state, O ldest offspring of the Great. N early reigned one hundred days, S aved the city, so they say. T heophanes called him dung, A ssassinated by his mum. N oted writer, purple born, T he Slayer's brother earns our scorn. I f Monomachos tried his best, N o Doukas could save the rest. E leven fell amongst the crowd, S o his forebears would be proud. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
