Summary

As part of the Cheerful Earful Podcast Festival, James and Alasdair take to the stage on the spookiest night of the year. We meet the Saxon bad-boy Hereward the Wake, and ask - at what point does putting heads on spikes stop being a hobby and start being a job? Accompanied by a fine bunch of Lorefolk (hand-picked like the spookiest of Scottish kale) James tells a story featuring way too many Mission Impossible rubber masks and more Normans than you can shake a spike at. (The French kind of Normans, not the Hale or Pace type). You can watch the entire stream in glorious 'technically-colour' on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwwVok7Tb7g Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
