In this episode of ‘Byzantine-Crusader Relations’ we look at how and why the First Crusade failed in its goal to reunite the Eastern and Western Christian churches. We discover that this failure was largely due to different expectations and goals on both sides.

Interesting Podcast! I like your inflections and as you guys go along you seem to get even more comfortable as a group! I think that was an interesting distinction between the Byzantines and the Christians. Nice use of sound effects.
This is a really great podcast! The way you all presented the content made it really easy to follow and understand. I like that you used multiple voices and sound effects; this broke up the content and made it really interesting to listen to.
Your information was presented so well. You can tell the podcast had a clear purpose to present the evolution of the relationship between the eastern and western church and it was very successful. The information was well organized and easy to follow. Besides the information the editing and sound quality was one of the best presented. The addition of music and quotes kept the podcast interesting, as well as having all the different voices which helped the podcast to not sound monotoned. Over all, great job!
Great podcast, content was very informative and clearly delivered with nice cut ins for quotes to keep it engaging. It was easy to distinguish voices and all the speakers were emotive and understandable. I also like the decision to not have music throughout as it makes understanding the speakers very easy.
Your Podcast came along very nicely as it was clear you were comfortable as group. I really enjoyed how each voice has their own role to play… made it easy to follow along as a listen. The use of new voice for the direct quotes made it understandable. Overall, this podcast was enjoyable to listen to!
I felt like this podcast jam packed so much information in, and i felt like i could still follow it. Just in terms of facts i feel like this one had the most and i appreciated that.
