I really enjoyed the relation to modern leaders on the medieval past. I enjoyed the banter between the group members. The discussion of reliable sources is important to remember when doing a research podcast on medieval history. Each speaker had a clear and appropriate speed that a lot of groups struggled with. Definitely a well produced podcast!
I really loved the debate format that you used. This both kept the podcast really interesting and made it easy to follow the information. You maintained a good pace throughout the podcast; nothing felt rushed or too slow. This is really well done!
The podcast was informative and entertaining. I enjoyed all the modern references such as bin Laden, Clinton and Game of Thrones. Also the word “crusading.”
The debate format you all used was very interesting and was an excellent way to get most of the group involved in the dialogue. Having an expert for both side of the issue made sure information was evenly given about both the muslim side and catholic side. Over all you stuck to your key point throughout the whole podcast and very clearly displayed the information while giving credit to your sources. Good job!
This was a fun one. I liked the conflict set up between the hosts because that really drove engagement throughout. I will also say I believe this podcast nailed the sound mixing, you managed to keep the background music faint but still present while really making the speakers’ voices pop.
Great podcast, the small debate that was set up during the entire podcast kept me intrigued.
First and foremost I agree with everyone that the debate aspect of this podcast was a creative addition that kept the listener engaged. It was also very refreshing that you guys pulled in modern. It gave me a better understanding of this topic. Overall, you guys did a great job writing and producing this podcast!
