Do you think you know King Arthur’s story? A poster-boy legendary figure of English history, ruling in The High Middle Ages? Think again, because his origin isn’t English and he didn’t live in The High Middle Ages - if he existed at all. #England #podcastandchill #HistoryFacts

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

New Episode!: #KingArthur : What do you associate him with? #England ? The #MiddleAges ? He was neither! Was he even a real person? Our new episode about King Arthur is live on YouTube now. Join us in the dumpster fire of Sub-Roman Britain & find out! https://t.co/sD1UDKSEd2

@podcastage @YouTube @YouTubeCreators Cheers to you, mate! Your work has been an invaluable resource for years.

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

Taking A.D. History on the road to enjoy living history is always a blast. In this case, what we got to see first hand was truly extraordinary.

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

https://t.co/oQNNCwbmgS In our newest episode 451AD-460AD, we see Armenia take up arms against the Sassanid Persians for the first major military defense of Christianity. Also, A.D. History goes on the road to see living history! #newepisode #podcast #history

As a @LoyolaChicago alumni I FINALLY MET THE LEGENDARY SISTER JEAN of @RamblersMBB !!! For the college basketball fans here, after chatting with her for 15 MINUTES - she’s even more awesome than you imagine. #AmericasDarling #NCAA #CollegeBasketball #marchmadness @Loyola_Alumni

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

This is for the legend that was Willie Mays. Hey! Say, Hey Kid! No one roamed Center better on either coast or anywhere in between than him! Cheers to an AMAZING baseball life! #MLB #WillieMays #baseball https://t.co/pfGK6EvB9J

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

It was interesting seeing Attila as something other than the Hun who bested Western Rome in its dying days. He appeared to be a skilled politician and diplomat. One who clearly gave real thought to his image.

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

We are back with Attila Part II! Everyone talks about his military prowess, but how did Attila conduct himself as king and diplomat? We also learn about the man who became known to history as St. Patrick! #newepisode #podcast #Ireland https://t.co/PavnzVjYR7

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

Definitely a fun and in-depth conversation about #Oppenheimer, and the history that makes the film possible. Take a watch! #ADHistory #OppenheimerFilm #ww2

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

We go live in 10 minutes! Join us with your insights and questions! https://t.co/jXOsPumWes

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

This will be fun. A first time for everything.

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

Join us tomorrow 8/8 on YouTube for our FIRST livestream, where we will be doing an A.D. History Watches on the blockbuster Oppenheimer! Beginning at 5:00PM BST/Noon EST/9:00AM PST. See you there! #Livestream #Oppenheimer #adhistory

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

It enhances the moviegoing experience! #Oppeneheimer #OppenheimerFilm

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

Have you seen #Oppeneheimer or are planning to see it? Then you MUST watch our video where we answer the question: “Did the U.S. HAVE to use the Atomic Bombs in WW2?” Link below! #WW2 #OppenheimerFilm #ADHistory https://t.co/KdUc4sxInn

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

@ADHistoryPC You have to give major props to @NameExplainYT for tackling this topic. Sub-Roman Britain in so many ways is a black hole for historians. Especially when it comes to identifying credible contemporaneous accounts from that period. It is NO small challenge. Cheers!

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

What’s extraordinary is that the Western Empire’s “leadership” was far more interested in its often petty internal squabbles, than be concerned with the first Visigoth king sacking Rome to settle their long outstanding debt to him and his people for their distinguished service.

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

Alaric I did something many had dreamed of doing, but none had done in 800 years. Mostly to pay the bills, and to resolve the Roman’s debt to him. #NewEpisode #podcast #invasion https://t.co/fGeghYhRxD

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

The story of our unexpected hiatus is a fun one, which we will share soon. But all the same: We. Are. Back!

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

We are so back. Back again! And it feels goooood! A lot better than the city of Rome feels in this newest episode! #podcast #NewEpisode #Rome https://t.co/uuEr74jeLW

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

A fun and generous invitation from both friend and friend-of-the-show @VGCKenny, where we get into the topic of democratic civic responsibility far more than I ever knew possible through the lens of Teen Titans!

[James/DJCKenny @VGCKenny]

I know it's been a bit, but it is certainly worth it, because in today's #LSOP I am joined by @PKDinHistory of @ADHistoryPC and we have a wonderful time discussing this episode and a lot of other things for almost 2 1/1 hours (After the edit)

@TerryMatalas Encore! #StarTrekPicard #StarTrekLegacy

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

There is absolutely nothing I would enjoy more than #StarTrekLegacy w/ @TerryMatalas at the conn. Very seldom is both the best and right choice more clear.

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

Alaric I did what so many other Roman enemies only dreamt of for centuries: He blindside sacked Rome, plundering the Eternal City. But you know what was the true salt in the wound for the Romans? They created him. #newepisode #ADHistory #irony https://t.co/rpqnYAsk5S

[Paul K. DiCostanzo @PKDinHistory]

Some additional picks for U.S. currency upon further contemplation: Ernest Hemingway, Walter Cronkite, Barbara Tuchman, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays & Sandy Koufax. Very baseball heavy, a shocker indeed. #ADHistory

[A.D. History Podcast @ADHistoryPC]

In our newest episode dropped yesterday, we were asked the question: Who would we want to see on our nation’s paper currency. Who would you like to see on your nation’s money? #ADHistory #money #PodNation https://t.co/PZ06mVYJ9E

[SP Rupert @StargatePioneer]

There's a lot of podcast nuggets in this one. And I'm pretty sure @PKDinHistory could have kept going for hours talking about podcasting!
