133: The Winter of Their Discontent

SEASON 6: The Other Norman Conquest EPISODE 133 : The Winter of Their Discontent Schemes, preparations, and solidifications…oh my! We’re back in the West, knee-deep in papal maneuverings and vassal gamesmanship. After a brief Eastern detour, this chapter sets the stage for something massive. The gears of European power are grinding into motion, and our favorite schemer, Duke Robert “the Old Fox,” is sharpening his claws for his most daring gamble yet. The stakes? Everything.
