Inside the Peasants Revolt

<p>In 1381, a highly organised civilian army marched on London, demanding an end to generations of unfairness. Matt Lewis and author A.K. Blakemore explore the human stories behind the Peasants&#39; Revolt. They discover how Chaucer viewed the uprising from his home within London and uncover the forgotten women of 1381, including widows seeking the king&#39;s justice, who navigated the chaotic London streets searching for freedom.</p><br><p><strong>MORE</strong></p><p><strong>Peasants&#39; Revolt on Film: The Uprising Reviewed</strong></p><p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/peasants-revolt-on-film-the-uprising-reviewed/id1564113746?i=1000790042840" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Listen on Apple</a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/1ZQ25JDHfUf9CQnEqzQB8W" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Listen on Spotify</a></p><br><p><strong>Richard II vs. Henry IV</strong></p><p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/richard-ii-vs-henry-iv/id1564113746?i=1000671468160" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Listen on Apple</a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/6FwoVILnFD15Q5S7Qm3WhP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Listen on Spotify</a></p><br><p>Gone Medieval is presented by Matt Lewis.
