History With Hilbert's video: Who was thelflad Lady of the Mercians History with Hilbert Podcast feat Grace

If you've been keeping up with the Last Kingdom then you'll surely be acquainted with the character of Æthelflad, the female warrior leader of Mercia, daughter of King Alfred the Great and sister to King Edward the Elder. In this episode of the History with Hilbert Podcast I'll be discussing a range of topics with my good friend and "colleague" Grace who is a fellow student of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic (ASNC) at Cambridge and a fellow Early Medieval History enthusiast. Hi everyone this is the third episode of a new feature on the channel, the History with Hilbert Podcast where I'll be channelling my inner Joe Rogan and taking a more long-form approach to look at different subjects from history. I'll be inviting some more guests on in future and hopefully making it a regular, perhaps weekly or biweekly feature. Let me know what you think! Timestamps are in the pinned comment!
