Hoooooo yeah. Right INTO MY VEINSSS

th

sad for no mention of Tommy Cromwell as the actual agent behind the dissolution of the monasteries, just bc I love the guy so much and think he should get more credit for English early state building. Otherwise, perfect episode of a perfect series.

Absolute Unit

get a load of this guy, says he loves Oliver Cromwell

th

Thomas Cromwell, not Oliver Cromwell

Alec

I only fuck with Gutenberg Bibles personally, fuck a king james

MC Prescott

Did Chris just say “wade in”

Tim O'

Starting a band called The Calvinist Bolsheviks of Scotland

Karl Childers

Chris, re. bible editions: "I'm not gonna WADE into this." Heh. Hehehh.

James Cook

Lol my thought exactly except it was The Tantalizing Counterfactuals

James Cook

Stellar episode! Probably my fav so far. And Matt, your closing was brilliant, I loved it. Thank you guys

So the Gideons generally distribute the KJV, though in true equivocating episcopal fashion they've recently started to switch to the MEV (Modern English Version), a split-the-baby compromise between the beautiful prose of the KJV and the ham-fisted simplicity of the NIV (New International Version) often favored by evangelicals.

Split 7" with New Model Army out now on Rough Trade

Hell On Earth and Mike Duncan's Revolutions Podcast now exist in the same cinematic universe

Of course fans of the source material are always going to have their preference on which director's vision is better but I'm glad we get to see a diversity of approaches in the History fandom

Dirtmouth

Will the soundtrack become available at some point? There are quite a few bangers.

Ian Priest

Dunfermline, Chris. Dum-FERM-lin. Sending love from Scotland boys 🙃

Demented Avenger

I once tried to smoke some popery when I was in high school. Didn't get high.

Ian H

👍

Michelle

As someone who had always loved the word “popery,” this episode was top-notch. Also, for the real nerds: https://is.gd/7rTWuH

BJGreasly

Went down to where Charlie 1st got his head cut off after listening to last episode to try and get some vibes

Tristan

No English king can be named Arthur, when Arthur returns to Cymry he'll drive the anglos from the ancient island, no way they could name they're guy after him

Abernathy

Great episode. Starting to get sad there’s only one of these left; no doubt it’ll be a banger

Demented Avenger

There needs to be an all-girl band called New Model Army. They will go onstage in makeup like the band in the "Addicted to Love" video, dressed in fatigues.

Christopher Price

The English civil war bursting onto the scene like fortinbras in Hamlet.

Steeeeve

I see Chris opted for the german pronunciation of "Dunfermline" lmao

Quantum in "quantum leap" refers to a discrete jump from one thing to another; a 'quantum' of something is lowest physically permissible amount of that thing.

I meant to put this comment on the antifada's new pod

Seacrest out

Just adding on, The KJV borrows pretty heavily from a then-illegal translation by William Tyndale who was burned at the stake less than 100 years before its publication. There are more accurate translations available, but KJV/Tyndale are the most poetic and are the origins of phrases like “give up the ghost,” “fly in the ointment,” “fought the good fight,” “bite the dust,” and a whole bunch of other phrases still in common use

Tim Mullen

England is now an outdated concept. It’s time to return to its natural form in the kingdoms of Northumbria, East Anglia, Wessex, etc

T

Can highly recommend the historical fiction “An Instance of the Fingerpost” for an interesting take on this period of English history.

Kamran Husain

Just imagine if he’d immigrated to connecticut sullivan and cromwell could been a cute general store

th

ok papist

I finally became a patron to Chapo so I could get access to this series. Matt Christman's materialistic analysis of history is wonderful and hearing Chris Wade and Christman together is the best duo in Chapo. I really hope these two do more work together.

Saga

Great ep this week. I'm not normally a fan of the Tudor and Stuart eras, but this was pretty interesting.

Clammy_Damp

Yeah that would fit in really well with the ‘we should be Protestant because there’s a fuckload of wealth to repossess from the church’ point they made a couple episodes ago.

Clammy_Damp

Was he not also a mercenary in the Italian wars. I think maybe nobody can actually know for sure but that’s the story.

th

yeah that’s the most plausible one out there. he’s a terrific figurehead for the rumblings of church reform, capitalism and formations of state power that occurred in the 16th century before shit really popped off in the 17th. I understand why including him might make the English narrative episode a little too wide reaching tho.

Clammy_Damp

For real though a sequel series about the English reformation through empire would fucking pound.

Tim Mullen

We Stan Ivar the Boneless

Christian

Great episode!!! I was hoping we’d get a deep dive on the English civil war and Cromwell.

Norman X. Picklestein

Wait... what does all of this history in England have to do with the Thirty Years War?

Jonathan Szerszen

Matt and Chris my boys, you over come me with joy!

Jose Jaimes-Ramos

Are you complaining about extra slop? Also this podcast is covering how the Thirty Years War influenced the birth of modern capitalism. Which would include England.

J Fitz

There’s a delightfully/frighteningly kooky sect of “King James only” evangelicals who believe that precisely because there are textual variants and alternative translations of the Bible’s Hebrew and Greek that actually the King James English is the only divinely inspired and authorized text. Long books of wacky funhouse-philology where the argument hinges on the fact that Lewis Carroll was a pedophile

Andrew Cross

pre-Angle/Saxon/Jute kingdoms

smoking on that archbishop laud pack

Geoffrey Holland

This entire series is so incredibly done. Season 0 of revolutions. Every episode is an instant must listen. End of this one had me saying out loud "oh fuck".

Daniel Terry

Chris if you’re reading this please make and release a soundtrack for this series. The music is awesome.

Mark Shatraw

Honestly if Matt and Chris wanted to turn this into a Blowback-style medieval annual series, I'd be down for that

David Cox

Cromwell might have offed Charles 1st and all that but his name is still mud in Ireland for good reason!

Fiddypea

I don't care what it is, I just want more

Alexander Lawrie

I will never get over Dun-FERM-LINE 😭 but lads you've outdone yourselfs. This is the series I've always wanted - outstanding job 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Hardcore Virgin

Exhausted from whoring all day Thanks for the respite

th

listening again because it's so fun and have to be an annoying pedant about everything i do: the litigation about henry and catherine's divorce was not about whether henry and catherine fucked, it was about whether arthur and catherine fucked. so it was a bunch of Henry 7's old friends showing up and saying "yeah i remember their wedding, arthur came out of the tent saying 'i love having sex with my spanish wife', it was awesome". whole thing was a total shambles.
