Tink's Medieval Times is a podcast delivered by me, William Tink, a teacher of and enthusiast for history, especially the medieval world. The opening series - "Crusades O'Clock" - takes a look at the reasons for the various crusading movements (especially of the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries), the events of these expeditions and the ways in which they affected their participants and the people's and areas they targeted. With apologies in advance for the music! I hope you enjoy it. Any feedback welcome at tinksmedievaltimes@gmail.com .

Crusades O'Clock Episode 9 - The Siege of Antioch 2: The Fall of Antioch April - June 1098

It looks as though the great Crusader conflict around Antioch will take 3 episodes now! There is so much ground to cover, what with Kerbogha of Mosul on the move (slowly), Armenian armourers to arrange the betrayal of the city (less slowly) and Armenian woodcutters to decapitate Yaghi Siyan (very quickly). This next exciting installment sees the Crusader siege end, but on a bit of cliff hanger, for Kerbogha's army of 45,000 men is poised to lay siege to the Christians! The big showdown will be in our next episode, but this one's pretty cool too. It contains a night assault, with some more top quality action from Bohemond of Taranto. It's not to be missed.
