  • The Reformation Episode 5: Wars of Religion
    2024/08/26
    The Wars of Religion are the bloody outcome of the religious fracturing of Europe. They reshaped political identity and redefined the balance of power among countries. But what actually happened and why does it matter? This episode is a wild ride through three different countries, as scheming French cardinals send funds to Protestant rebels abroad, and the king of Spain institutes bloody punishments for religious deviance in the Netherlands. Cities under siege and a terrifying "red wedding" are part of the story. From Hugenots to Anabaptists, Calvinists, and Lutherans, this episode will answer questions you didn't know you had.

  • The Reformation: EP 4- England Kills a King
    2024/07/02

    In this episode we watch England execute a king. This is the strange tale of how England became a Protestant country, and why the Church of England is the way it is. Along the way we watch militant Scottish Reformers challenge the power of the monarch, and uncover the roots of the Covenanters and Presbyterian churches. The episode culminates in the English Civil War, as competing versions of church and state vie for the future of the nation. Monarchy in Europe will never be the same again!

  • The Reformation Episode 3: John Calvin and Theocracy
    2024/01/18

    John Calvin is one of the major figures of the Protestant Reformation, famous for his doctrine of pre-destination.  This episode covers his time in Geneva, and how he turned that city into a grim and terrifying experiment in theocracy.  It is also the story of Protestants burning a heretic at the stake, in a bizarre moment of borrowing the very punishments that had been used to suppress them.  This episode captures a dramatic moment as reformers struggle to redefine the roles of church and state.
