How could you not love British history when a podcast about it contains the following sentence verbatim‽:

“Their thinking was that so many outside factors making it a bad time for war made it the perfect time for war. And if you think about it, there’s a certain logic to that. …And the logic is Wile E. Coyote’s.”

Catching up on The British History Podcast and wow this show never disappoints. Some lady named Mabel poisoned so many people that she often poisoned the wrong people by mistake.

I didn’t post it but found it on the subreddit for my fave podcast. This is one of the jokes that I so desperately wish everyone could get, because this is the funniest possible use of this meme.

I’m genuinely mad that I’m the only person I know IRL obsessed with the minutia of British history. Because everyone deserves to giggle at this.

@wyf-of-bathe it’s a little after the general time period of the Anglo Saxon era, but may still be in your wheelhouse enough to appreciate.

Next episode! Here we go. Oh boy…Anselm is at it again.

“Anselm is flatly refusing to exit stage left.”

Sounds about right.

LOL. Even his own biographer is like “my dude ur a fucking liar. Shut up.”

There's something said in The British History Podcast about historical chroniclers, particularly in the early middle ages that feels... relevant.

"They weren't necessarily concerned with facts but with Truth."

And the difference between the facts and the Truth in the recording of history, in the creation of a narrative... is a thing.
