All right, recently, Dr. Z and I sat down and we talked about why people went on crusade.

The episode is called Why People Went on Crusade.

But one of our members over on Reddit, Annie Cam OG, pointed out that it really should have been called Project 1095, which is an absolute genius title

because there was an actual think tank behind a lot of this. Though, there was also a goose.

And I'm going to give you a sample of the episode. And spoilers, it is going to involve a goose.

And these would be amazing events where we know that the ones where the Pope was present,

where he would start.

We talked about how church at this point was like a processionary thing.

Like you rarely went into the church.

The church would sort of process through the streets.

He would process up to wherever it was needed to be dedicated, whatever it was,

wearing his tiara. And that is their official term. I'm not making this up to be, like, degrading or whatever. It's called a tiara. It's a big white cone. See me, it looks like the crown of like upper Egypt. Yeah. And it's got like gold and stuff all around it. Like a big old fabricier egg. Yeah, but it's one of these hat-wearies we've been talking about in the show where you wear your hat.

Everyone goes, ooh. around it. Like a big old fabricier egg. Yeah, but it's one of these hat-weary ceremonies we've been talking about in the show where

you wear your hat.

Everyone goes, ooh, look at that hat.

And he walks up the road, dedicates whatever.

It is shocking how much a medieval diplomacy and, like, politics centers around hat wearing.

They're in their hats back then, I guess.

All right.

We're into some things in our culture.

That's, you know, that's theirs.

But he'd give the speech at the end.
