Hanging with History
The first season focuses on the origins of the Industrial Revolution or the Great Enrichment, we go deep into history to gain enough background knowledge to actually understand the various theories of the origins of the Great Enrichment. Eventually we learn that we also need to know how the miracle was consolidated, as the many other close approaches to the Industrial Revolution failed.A kwirky style, but intellectually ambitious with the goal of understanding history well enough to understand the miracle that happened that one time. It's gonna be a long series.

Episode 28
Mary’s efforts to restore the Catholic faith backfire with the result that Protestantism gains strength, and anti-Spanish feeling grows. A Fornebu episode. We explore 3 characteristic failures with the greatest being that time when Dumbledore, I mean Gandalf, uh, Cranmer foxed the regime with the help of a divinely sent comet. His heart was unburnt. A long episode as we also cover the shared goals of Protestants and Catholics to get closer to God and discuss some of the impact of Spain’s policies after first denying that the podcast discusses Spain too much.
