    King Arthur - The Once and Future King Who Never Was
    Feb 4 2026

    Welcome to the first episode of the Reign Check podcast! A light but informative chat about the kings and queens (and possibly some barons, earls and princes) of jolly ol' England. Mother and son Austin and Donna discuss King Arthur, a fascinating legendary figure that still persists in the popular imagination today. Future episodes will discuss actual, historical monarchs but we felt we couldn't start without first mentioning Artie. Please note we are neither historians nor professionals. Leave a comment about who is your favorite English king?
