Dan Jones returns with season four of This is History podcast
Sony Music Entertainment is set to launch the fourth season of This is History: A Dynasty to Die For.
The podcast closely follows the schemes, scandals and ruthless politics of one of the most notorious families in European history – The Plantagenets.
Hosted by award-winning medieval historian, broadcaster and author Dan Jones, season one topped Spotify’s UK History Chart and the Apple History Chart in the US.
Season four tells the story of two kings, Henry and Edward. This father and son team band together to fight the greatest threat their dynasty has ever faced: betrayal from an old friend.
Simon de Montfort’s ambitious drive for reform threatens to finish off the Plantagenet rule once and for all. Henry and Edward will do everything to secure their legacy.
Family dysfunction drives firm friends to become deadly enemies as they go head-to-head in a catastrophic sequence of events whose repercussions are still felt to this day.
Over 12 episodes, Dan delves into machinations, mutilations and bloody chaos to uncover the foundations of modern Europe.
This is History: A Dynasty to Die For season four launches 20 February on all podcast platforms.
