Haven't listened to either episode yet on The Northman (seeing it next week!) but I was wondering if you guys had seen The Last Duel, and your thoughts on it? I watched it just recently and I got so excited during several parts of the film because someone clearly did some researching with certain details of it. While I don't think the movie was perfect (thought it was good enough) it was so interesting to see some of the medieval thinking you have mentioned in a lot of the episodes- such as humorism, mentions of the book on courtly love, and a lot of rules/thoughts on sex. It made me feel excited to actually be able to catch all the references. Big plus of the movie is, of course, Jodie Comer.
