Most of them are single episode things (eg the "Gone Medievel" podcast is a different subject each week) but some are longer narrative (eg. The British History Podcast, Revolutions) and they go to the top of the queue and get listened to the week they're published.
But no, none of the stuff about events 1000 years ago are particularly time sensitive, whereas Fighting Talk becomes a bit meaningless by sunday afternoon, and a recap/review of House of the Dragon has a shelf life of a week at most.

I have the odd British History Podcast binge. Still only at about the year 500 though.

Ah Homer, my sweet summer child!đ
Yep, the British History Podcast started way back with the first evidence of humans arriving in these isles and has gone week by week until 1066/7 so far. Itâs fantastic.
I listened through the whole History of Rome series as they were published. Mike Duncan (Mr HoR) but hen took a break and came back with Revolutions, which covered a selection of significant revolutions through history, beginning with the English Civil War and ending in about 1920s Soviet Union. Fantastic stuff. He really is the master of the art form for me.
I hen you get to the end of HoR switch across to The History of Byzantium, which basically picks up the thread from where Mike sets it down.
And for random historical subjects the whole History Hits network is fantastic. A range of podcasts with different focuses (foci?) in one-off single episode formats: The Ancients Gone Medievel Not Just the Tudors Warfare Patented (a history of inventions) Betwixt the Sheets (a history of scandal) And the main History Hit pod which can cover almost anything depending on who is available as a guest
Then thereâs also Our Fake History which covers various historical âfactsâ and does a thorough multi-episode show about whether theyâre true and why they are believed and passed in anyway.
(Greg: you know me so well!)
