16. Dark Age People are not Dumb with Eleanor Janega

This week we speak to author, historian, podcaster and lecturer Dr. Eleanor Janega. This week Eleanor really let fly that the Dark Ages is so-called because of a lack of sources, not an intellectual decline among the people... and takes a moment out to correct the one thing that put Paul off history at school.
