THE MANICULUM PODCAST
POINTING THE FINGER AT THE MIDDLE AGES
WHO WE ARE
Maniculum: little hand, pointing finger; often found in manuscript marginalia
We’re Mac and Zoe - a medievalist PhD candidate and an academic-turned game designer, and we’re dedicated to breaking down the ivory tower of academia and making good stories accessible by pointing back to the rich world of the Middle Ages.
Join us as we find obscure medieval texts, contextualize them, and teach you how to create fresh stories and compelling games - not through new ideas, but old ones!
