Josh Zucker from the Grand Dukes of the West podcast joins us to talk about yet another Duke of Burgundy, John the Fearless. And while John may not match his father for statecraft or shrewdness, he more than makes up for it in scandaliciousness. How will Ben’s rival candidate, Bernard of Armagnac, fare against John in this posthumous showdown?
Ben will be presenting at Intelligent Speech Online (November 4th 2023)! Use discount code ROYALE to join and hear all about the conspiracy that brought Joan of Arc into the spotlight, as well as a roundtable of fellow RexyPods.

In this episode you’ll hear a rendition of “Reveillez-Vous, Picards”, a folk song sung by Burgundian soldiers in the 15th Century. If you enjoyed it, the full track is available on YouTube, however we were unable to find the original artist. If you know who we should credit with this absolute banger, please let us know!
Join us again next week when we’ll have on Katy of the Queens podcast to talk about two great matriarchs of the Hundred Years’ War: Yolande of Aragon and Isabeau of Bavaria.
