This week Ben and Adam get revolutionary with Martin Empson, author of The Time of the Harvest Has Come. Together, they explore the German Peasants’ War of 1524–25, the largest social revolt in pre-French Revolution Europe. Along the way, they discuss one of its lesser-known leaders and Saint of the Week, Michael Gaismair.
