Join Olivia and Aran as they look into how people not only survived but thrived the whole medieval winter through.For more on some of what we discuss, check out:A digitised version of the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry:https://arca.irht.cnrs.fr/iiif/4856/canvas/canvas-2045964/viewThe History of the Snowman by Bob Eckstein:https://archive.org/details/historyofsnowman00ecks/Anglo-Saxon poem The Menologium:https://oldenglishpoetry.camden.rutgers.edu/the-menologium/Recipes for pottage:https://historydollop.com/2017/01/27/two-peasanty-pottages/Nutrition and the Early Medieval Diet by Kathy L Pearsonhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/2865862Join the official WMG Discord server!! https://discord.gg/txp5E5RdMusic used in this episode is a public domain recording of the medieval French Christmas carol "Nowell, nowell Dieu vous garde," available here: https://archive.org/details/lp_nowel-nowel-english-medieval-carols-and_richard-hickox-member-of-the-richard-hicko/disc1/02.07.+Nowell%2C+nowell+Dieu+vous+garde+(Carol).mp3

Pets in the Middle Ages
Here's a rhetorical question: do you love your pet? Of course you do, but did you know that medieval people did too? The only difference is, these pets had jobs! In this episode, Olivia and Aran delve into the wacky world of medieval cats and dogs, to explore what contemporary people wrote about them. Spoiler alert: they thought they were cool little guys. Also discussed: the official WMG dogs Bonnie and Bizzy; whether medieval hunting is like football, and if they had Mormons in late-antique Arabia.

Medieval witches
Infernal covenants, black sabbaths and missing infants; dark deeds are afoot in the forests of medieval Europe... or are they? It's a Halloween Spooktacular! When the Devil transforms Joe Mason into an angry amphibian, Olivia and Aran must venture deep into the woods* to find a witch who can restore his humanity. But first, they have to figure out what medieval people actually believed about witches. Spoiler alert: it's not what you think! Along the way, we'll meet magical detectives, pious necromancers, and a lot of people who need to stop laundering their sexual hangups as academia. Also discussed: caked-up frogs, the historical accuracy of Warhammer 40,000, and which Better Call Saul character is most like the Devil.
