In this episode, @MartyTheElder sits down with medieval historian Dr. Charles Cornish Dale, also known as RAW EGG NATIONALIST, for a wide-ranging conversation on history, culture, and the state of modern society. From the influence of C.S. Lewis and the Reformation’s reshaping of music in worship, to the complexities of masculinity, nationalism, and cultural identity, Dr. Dale brings a historian’s clarity to today’s most pressing cultural debates. Together, they explore how medieval perspectives can help us make sense of our polarized world, the breakdown of trust in institutions, and the urgent need to rediscover our roots.
