À propos de ce contenu audio

American Medieval is a podcast about the history of the Middle Ages, but with an American twist. Each week, host Prof. Matthew Gabriele is joined by expert guests to explore not medieval history, but how and why the Middle Ages have such a hold on our collective imagination. After all, if America has never been modern, it’s because we’ve always been slightly medieval.

  • Crossover Episode with “Reckoning” (the film “Kingdom of Heaven”)

    Crossover Episode with “Reckoning” (the film “Kingdom of Heaven”)
    Apr 15 2026

    This is an older episode from the “Reckoning with Jason Herbert” back catalog, but we all talk about the Ridley Scott epic (?) “Kingdom of Heaven.” Matt yells about water, among other things.



    Guest

    Jason Herbert is the host of Reckoning with Jason Herbert, a podcast about history, the outdoors, and movies. He's also the creator of “Historians at the Movies” Watch Party, one of the longest running watch parties in the world. Jason's an expert on Indigenous and environmental history in North America, and serves as a tribal liaison in Colorado for the United States Forest Service, which in no way endorses his work. You can find him across all social media at HerbertHistory.


    In this episode, Jason was joined by Matthew Gabriele, John Wyatt Greenlee (the eels guy), Thomas Lecaque (the yell-y holy war guy), and David M. Perry (the friend and co-author of Matt guy).

  • The “Dark Ages” with David M. Perry and Eleanor Janega

    The “Dark Ages” with David M. Perry and Eleanor Janega
    Apr 1 2026
    Ok, we get yell-y about the “Dark Ages” in this episode. But first David and Matt make a shocking admission on this April 1, 2026 episode. Then we talk about other things. GuestsDr Eleanor Janega is a medieval historian, whose work aims to highlight the ways that our society has been influenced by the past, and more particularly, how it tells stories about history that aren’t actually true to justify our own desires. She’s the author of the book The Once and Future Sex: Going Medieval on Women’s Roles in Society and The Middle Ages: A Graphic History. Her work has also appeared in The Washington Post, Time, History Today, BBC History, Slate, and the Times Literary Supplement, among others. In addition, she’s co-hosts the hit podcasts “Gone Medieval” and “We’re Not So Different,” and is the host and co-creator of several history series on HistoryHit TV. Learn more at eleanorjanega.com. David M. Perry is a journalist and historian, who currently works as the associate director of Undergraduate Studies at the University of Minnesota. He’s the co-author (with Matthew Gabriele) of the books Oathbreakers and The Bright Ages, both from HarperCollins. Publishers Weekly called Oathbreakers “An enlightening portrait of the medieval mindset” while The Boston Globe said The Bright Ages was “incandescent and ultimately intoxicating.” Over the last few years, Perry’s work on history, parenting, disability, and politics has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Nation, The Daily Beast, Smithsonian Magazine, Slate, CNN, and many others. His website is davidmperry.com, and he can be found on Bluesky at https://bsky.app/profile/lollardfish.bsky.social. CreditsHost & Executive Producer: Matthew Gabriele.
