| 35 - The Battle of Muhi | 20 May 2026 | 00:23:18 | |
We put it off long enough, and cannot anymore – the Mongols are here! In 1241, the armies of Hungary massed against this threat, one that they seemingly did not even fully understand. The resulting battle shaped the future of the medieval Hungarian Kingdom, as Saint István’s system is put to the ultimate test. Come, find out if the time allotted to Béla for preparations thanks to Friar Julianus amounted to much, and if his policy of keeping the Cumans close gave him the edge he needed to safeguard the kingdom.

| 34 - The Travels of Brother Julianus | 13 May 2026 | 00:24:59 | |
Today we head back to whence we came: the Great Eurasian Steppe, as we follow a friar of the Dominican Order on a grand quest in search of Magna Hungaria – and some long-lost brothers they believed still dwelt there. Their journey, undertaken as the Steppe itself was undergoing afundamental change due to the emergence of the Mongol Empire, is an inspiring, and yet tragic tale that every Hungarian child learns of in school. It is also an immensely important journey, as Brother Julianus interacts directly with the threat – and lives to tell the tale back home.

| 33 - Before the Storm | 06 May 2026 | 00:24:14 | |
Today, we begin discussing the life and reign of Béla IV – without question one of the most important, most influential kings of the Árpádian dynasty, with a long-lasting legacy. Béla would have to show his mettle in situations no other Árpádian faced, but his early years are mostly about dealing with the legacy of his father. András II broke the kingdom’s equilibrium, and Béla was intent on rebuilding the power and majesty the medieval Kings of Hungary once held – but time has passed, and turning back the clock always comes with upsetting the now-established status quo.

In the very first special episode of History of the Hungarians, we take a look at the 2026 election, how we got here, and why they were so important.

| 32 - Visit You in Your Descendent | 29 Apr 2026 | 00:24:59 | |
András II found no rest even after issuing the Golden Bull – albeit never holding himself to what he promised in it might be the reason why. In the last decade of his reign, András struggled with his son, Béla, who was dead-set on ending the mass alienation of royal land, and the Church, who felt that they drew the short stick during the Golden Bull. During thislatter conflict, the king who has been threatened with excommunication basically all his life by various ecclesiastic authorities found the hammer finally coming down.

| 31 - The Golden Bull of 1222 | 22 Apr 2026 | 00:28:14 | |
Today, we reach the year 1222 – and the Golden Bull. Facedwith opposition, internal strife, and mounting pressure from his most loyal supporters, King András II is forced to issue a document that would become the basis of Hungary’s feudal development for centuries to come. It became a foundational document for the development of Hungarian Law, to the point that the justices of the constitutional court wear its insignia today. So come, join us today, as we discuss the Golden Bull, the circumstances of its birth, and how it influenced one of the more unique aspects of the Hungarian nobility.

| 30 - Holy Tourism | 15 Apr 2026 | 00:20:00 | |
Send your questions for the Q&A to: historyofthehungarians@gmail.com We take a view at something that took up much of András II’s time: his wars and his ambitions abroad. From his attempt to reclaim the kingdom he held as a child, to attempting to take the crown of the Latin Empire, András was active on the European stage. Come, join us, and see how his desire for the Latin Emperorship finally got András to make good on the oath he inherited from his father, and go on Crusade – and what he did once in the Holy Land.

| 29 - Afraid you should be not | 08 Apr 2026 | 00:26:30 | |
Send your questions for the Q&A to: historyofthehungarians@gmail.com Today’s topic is the first part of András II’s reign: a period characterized by the immense favor the king showed to his wife’s family. This favoritism would end in tragedy, when a group of leading Hungarian noblemen decided that Gertrude was the source of their problems. But what was it they thought the queen threatened? What was the great reorganization of the kingdom András II undertook, and what were the consequences? Join us as we begin this month-long tale of András II’s reign, full of twists, turns, and medieval politicking!

| 28 - Brotherly Love | 01 Apr 2026 | 00:23:48 | |
We begin the 13th century – and close out the 12th – with the tale of two brothers. The sons of Béla III they both may be, but their differing personalities, ambitions and goals will quickly reignite the old plague of their dynasty. Meanwhile, the kingdom truly stands on the precipice of a new era, with our friends in the Most Serene Republic of Venice banging on the doors accompanied by thousands of fighters from the Fourth Crusade.

| 27 - The Forgotten Century | 25 Mar 2026 | 00:24:57 | |
Often I heard the 12 th century be called Hungary’s forgotten century: it is skipped over entirely in public education, and even in my university course, I remember not much being said about it, unless you dug for it yourself. Meanwhile it is an important bridge between what was – Saint István’s kingdom, straddling the place between the feudal west and the imperial east – and what will be: an eventually powerful medieval kingdom. Come, join us as we take stock of this century, the economics, the foreign settlement, and even a shift that will become the driving force behind the internal conflicts of the next century… Website: historyofthehungarians.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.phpid=61579815072390 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/historyofthehungarians Support us at: https://buymeacoffee.com/historyofthehungarians The song heard in the intro and outro are parts of Johannes Brahms's Hungarian Dances no. 5, performed in G minor, arranged by Martin Schmeling. | |||
| 26 - Back to the Stage | 18 Mar 2026 | 00:24:39 | |
The second half of Béla’s reign was dedicated to Hungary’s great re-entry to the medieval power-politics of his day. On today’s episode, we shall discover how this was possible, why it happened now – and the results of taking up such an aggressive stance again, after decades on the mend. Come, join us as we discuss Hungary’s attempts to seat an Árpádian on the throne of Halics, Béla’s role in diplomacy between two emperors, and the moment when the man they once called Alexios almost returned as Byzantium’s ruler… Website: historyofthehungarians.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61579815072390 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/historyofthehungarians Support us at: https://buymeacoffee.com/historyofthehungarians

| 25 - The Direction of the Kingdom | 11 Mar 2026 | 00:22:01 | |
Béla III’s reign is a pivotal time in the history of the medieval Hungarian Kingdom – he is the last king to rule the way Saint István intended, and the first to usher in some new practices. He was given the task of overseeing Hungary’s recovery from the conflicts of the decades prior, something he manages to the tune of being one of the richer crowned heads of Europe. Come, join us today as we examine the first decade and a half of Béla’s rule, and the state of the Hungarian kingdom under his leadership.

| 24 - The Boy They Called Alexios | 04 Mar 2026 | 00:27:03 | |
“What kind of blasphemy has our emperor committed, that he not only denied his daughter’s hand to us Romans, but this foreigner, he considers better than us all, and places above us into power?” These were the words that accompanied Béla, from theHouse of Árpád when he was proclaimed the heir to the Byzantine emperor. To say that his potential elevation was not unanimously approved of would be an understatement. Today, we shall follow the young prince as he embarks fromHungary to the beating heart of the Byzantine Empire, where political prophecies dictate the name of the heir, and one can be made, or unmade in mere weeks.

| 23 - In his father's shadow | 25 Feb 2026 | 00:25:41 | |
István III may have triumphed over his uncles, but he is far from being in the clear. His father, Géza II created many issues, and Hungary had few friends to call on for help – all this coming down on István’s head. The young king’s reign would be filled with trying to extricate himself from these struggles. Let us see whether he manages to stabilize his kingdom, or will the newly minted power in Europe fall under the umbrella of the Byzantine Empire?

| 22 - A Lingering Question | 18 Feb 2026 | 00:25:20 | |
To say that the Dynasty of Árpád was a tumultuous bunch would be an understatement. Time and again we have seen infighting regarding the succession. But this latest spat, the subject of today’s episode might be the worst yet – as two Istváns and a László gear up to fight it out for the crown. This tale has all the hallmarks of historical tragedy, witharmies clashing, duplicitous nobles, a priest making a principled stand, and poison claiming lives. Meanwhile the great powers of medieval Europe watch, eager to claim the spoils of victory.

| 21 - The Two Sides of Power Politics | 11 Feb 2026 | 00:23:58 | |
Géza II’s reign is, in a way, a premature show of the strength the medieval Kingdom of Hungary would be able to wield one day. With the homefront secure, Géza threw himself into European power-politics, standing toe-to-toe with some of the greatest powers of his time. While initially successful, the king’s rashness to make enemies and maintain the fight would cause problems that would reverberate through a generation… Website: historyofthehungarians.com Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61579815072390 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/historyofthehungarians Support us at: https://buymeacoffee.com/historyofthehungarians

| 20 - Coming into Power | 04 Feb 2026 | 00:25:00 | |
Géza II is a curious case – almost entirely forgotten in popular memory today, he was one of the more intriguing rulers of medieval Hungary I came across while researching the show. Seriously, I had a hard time finding useful images of him, something that has never been an issue previously. Inheriting a calm domestic scene, Géza would, once he reachedmaturity, direct his kingdom’s power outward, and become a major dealer on the international stage. This week, we shall discuss his early reign, the regency and his struggles with Boris, and see the structures of power that enabled him todive head-first into European power-politics.

| 19 - The Blind Man's Kingdom | 28 Jan 2026 | 00:23:18 | |
By every metric of his own time, Béla the Blind should have been unfit to rule. And yet, it is his kingship that begins to heal the wounds of István II’s reign – even if that means brutal bloodletting and cutting out some parts first. Come, join us this week for a tale of an unlikely king, brutal vengeance, shrewd diplomacy, wars and usurpers!

| 18 - Unfortunate Son | 21 Jan 2026 | 00:26:03 | |
The Kingdom of Hungary enters the 12th century proper with king latter medieval chroniclers uniformly seem to loathe.István II obviously drew the short end of the historical stick: his father was already disliked by posterity, but his accomplishments were, at least, harder to deny. István will spend his reign bumbling from one foreign entanglement to another, desperate to maintain the kingdom’s standing and his own honor. Join us today to see how this turns out for him, and listen to me try to untangle facts from the tales of our chroniclers.

| 17 - A Century in Review | 14 Jan 2026 | 00:26:53 | |
The passing of King Kálmán provides us with an opportunity to stop, look back, and take in all the changes the 11th century had wrought. Today’s topic is going to be a little different than our usual tale of kings and usurpations: we will look at what can be gleamed about the shifts in society, culture, and religion that this first century of the medieval Kingdom of Hungary had experienced. How did the previously nomadicpeople take to being settled? How did the church gain all the influence and wealth it needed to fulfil its role? Did people really hate being married so much they sold themselves into slavery to get away from home? Join us, and findout the answer to all these questions.

| 16 - Kálmán, the Not-so-Nerdy | 07 Jan 2026 | 00:29:39 | |
King Kálmán the Learned – also seen it translated as “the Bookish”, which is delightful – was the final Hungarian ruler of the 11th century. He is a fascinating case: much maligned by posterity for his actions against his brother, Kálmán was one of the most learned, and easily one of the most enlightened rulers of medieval Hungary. His rule is an excellent bookmark,not just on the century, but by capping off the work that began under Saint István.

| 15 - The Kingdom of Croatia | 17 Dec 2025 | 00:22:48 | |
This week’s episode pauses the ongoing narrative a bitto take a look at a country that’s history is going to be inextricably tied to that of the medieval Hungarian state: the Kingdom of Croatia. We shall discuss the origins of the Croatian people, the effects of them living right on theborder of two empires, and a document that is an obvious forgery, but still manages to get almost everything that counts right. Come, join us and see how the Croatian and Hungarian kingdoms become joined under what would later be called: The Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen.

| 14 - The Very Image of Chivalry | 10 Dec 2025 | 00:22:18 | |
The first century in the history of the Kingdom of Hungary is almost perfectly framed by two saint-kings. And it might besurprising, but the topic of today’s episode, László was, for the longest time, the more popular of the two. In contrast to István’s stern reputation, László garnered that of a chivalrous knight, a warrior-king, who expanded the borders and warred against pagans and his fellow Christians alike – something greatly valued in medieval history. Come, see how his laws, diplomacy and conquest finally lift the kingdom out of the decades of infighting that dominated the 11thcentury.

| 13 - The King and the Duke | 03 Dec 2025 | 00:30:36 | |
This week, we continue to follow the infighting amongst the early Árpádians, as generations shift, but old ambitions remain open. The story of Géza and Salamon is not as well-known even in Hungary, but it is a tale full of twists, turns, conniving nobles, and fits well into the international battle of their age. For the Investiture Controversy will shape the contest between the King and the Duke, as much as their personal ambitions will.

| 12 - The Sons of Vazul | 26 Nov 2025 | 00:23:00 | |
After the Árpádians reassert themselves, the two brothers, András and Béla find themselves working side-by side to keep Hungary out of the Holy Roman Empire’s orbit. But even the best working relationships can become frayed when succession is at stake. Come, see how a…somewhat pre-decided choice between a crown and a sword led the newly restored Árpádians down on the path to generations offeuding! We also discuss an important tool in these feuds, the territorial division of the country between the ruling king and his close family.

| 11 - The Venetian King | 19 Nov 2025 | 00:38:44 | |
Peter Orseolo was the only foreign-born king of Hungary in the Árpádian period, and as such, the target of many attacks, deserved and otherwise. The chroniclers later on would have a vested interest in depicting him as one of the worst kings Hungary ever had – but his contemporaries rose against him in open revolt not once, but twice. In this week’s episode we do not simply discover Peter’s ill-fated reign, but I also sat down with the good folk from the History of Venice podcast, so that we may have a fuller understanding of Peter’s background, and how the circumstances influence the relationship between Hungary and Venice.

So come, join us as we discuss István’s reign, his foreign policy towards the two great empires on his doorstep, and how the best laid plans may go awry when facing a boar in the forest… Website: historyofthehungarians.com Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61579815072390 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/historyofthehungarians The song heard in the intro and outro are parts of Johannes Brahms' Hungarian Dances no. 5, performed in G minor, arranged by Martin Schmeling. | |||
| 09 - The Kingdom of Saint István | 05 Nov 2025 | 00:26:18 | |
The second season of our show begins with a deep-dive into the Kingdom’s reorganization under the reign of István I, better know internationally as Saint Stephan. The task before our protagonist is daunting: his newly formed Kingdom was, just a few short years ago, not much more than a patchwork of tribal lands, still somewhat nomadic in their lifestyle. Join us in exploring the steps István took to bring his kingdom in line with other, European states of their time, and also took care to establish its independence from the great powers all around.

| 07 - The Adventures Part II: The Balkan Kerfuffle | 01 Oct 2025 | 00:30:56 | |
While the western Adventures are surprisingly well-documented, in the Balkans we deal with battles that may or may not have happened, tales of revenge that are likely all fabrications, and a musical chair of relationships, as the Byzantines and the Bolgars jockey for power. Come, join us as we explore this mess! And if you just can't get enough of history podcasts, A History of Italy awaits! | |||
| 06 - The Adventures: Raiding the West | 24 Sep 2025 | 00:27:26 | |
Around the same time the Vikings were causing some hay on the coastlines, the Hungarians got on the road to steal anything that was not nailed down inland. Let's discuss how these campaigns went, what made them successful, and the effects they had on the emerging Hungarian Principality. | |||
| 05 - Pozsony | 17 Sep 2025 | 00:23:12 | |
The Hungarians took over the Basin with little effort, but by 907, the hammer was about to fall. We shall follow the unfolding confrontation between the Bavarians, seeking to reconquer their lost territories, and the Magyars now occupying them, and discuss the myths surrounding this battle. | |||
| 04 - The Conquest | 10 Sep 2025 | 00:25:45 | |
No biggie, just the most consequential event in Hungarian history. Let's discuss how it went, the theories surrounding it, and the issue with our major source for the event. | |||
