[JehuBot]

I'm really starting to like this series , can't wait for the next installment sometime in the future. ^^

 

[Mr.Squishy]

Loved it! Couldn't tell it from a real documentary in terms of style and presentation.

"...and protecting us from Arboreal Cats."

I totally missed this line on my first viewing and almost did a spit take hearing it.

DONEC NON COMBURET NOSTRA FUNDO

The engrish (Latglish?) I get back from google translate is "SPREAD OUR LONG AS shall not be burnt". I can sorta see where you were headed with this, but what was the english you plugged in to get the latin?

Google translate says it means "we shall not be burnt of extended" which makes sense I guess. Maybe there was serious extension going on back in those days.

I'm going to guess it was meant to say "As long as we don't burn our asses (bottoms)." or something to that effect. Remember, false Latin is always funnier than real Latin.

You know, I hold a BA in History and I've seldom seen such finely researched material, tested with full academic rigour but also accessible to the general public.

I have one slight complaint in that the Dark Ages had ended when the 12th century was rolled around and we actually refer to that as the High Medieval Period as feudalism had reached its zenith and Crusaders began sending ENORMOUS amounts of a new herb called Hasshish from the Holy Land, praised for its pain killing properties and the wonderful side effects of making absolutely everything on that tapestry fucking hilarious.

Also, love that opening sequence....

I'm sure you're all sick of reading about tech issues so I'll just focus on the writing:

Paul, you charismatic stallion! Magnificent!

Nigel Fitzgerald Brouwer, you have taught me much on this day. I should investigate the whole story more often.

 

[McShizzle]

Arboreal cats, ha! That one made me spit my soda, great delivery too.

 

[RTR]

Nice to see that even now LRR still has recurring segments/characters

 

[Charmi the ninja]

This was brilliant, and enlightening. I think the Whole Story should get its own weekly segment.

 

[Critterbot]

The more you know!

Yes! More videos of just Paul in a hideous jacket talking cobblers.
