About this listen

Welcome to Just in Time Worldbuilding! I build fantasy worlds by drawing on real world history and knowledge. I share that random historical and sometimes science knowledge with you and I also suggest how you can use that knowledge in a fantasy context.
This podcast is hosts audio only versions of my YouTube video channel. New episodes on Tuesday, re-upload of the old catalogue on Saturdays, until the episodes are caught up.
