Do you feel like you would like to spend more time developing your knowledge instead of scrolling on TikTok?

Join the new study group and find the motivation you need, and more!

In this new series, I will organize study sessions for Patrons of the "History Student" tier. In each session, we will look at a paper, article, or other hoplology-related document. We will discuss its insights, its context, and more. During the session, you will be able to ask questions, comment, and contribute to the debate, taking on a more interactive role that will not be available in the same way in the recorded version, which will be made available later on YouTube.

You will also be able to suggest texts for upcoming sessions, and vote on potential topics, ensuring your interests and your will to study are met.

Join today to secure a place in the first session!

🚨 SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS!

I'm trying to optimize the channel's content and make it more accessible. One of the points I'm considering is the scheduling of live streams.

Currently, they usually take place on the weekends, at 20:00 CET.
The reasoning behind this choice was that the time slot seems to have the best overlap across time zones without being challenging. As for the day, weekends seemed easier to arrange.

However, I don't know if this matches what works for viewers, and the whole reason for the streams is for them to be enjoyed by people.

So, do weekend streams work for you, or would you prefer them to happen over the week? And if so, do you have a preferred day?

(I can't promise anything, and scheduling depends on the guest's availability, but I'm curious to hear your thoughts).

Let me know in the comments!

What exceptional days I just passed. A huge thank you to Dr. Tomaš Lazar and the rest of our Slovenian hosts for the invitation and the opportunity to learn from the biggest experts in mail #armour at the Link by Link international symposium at the National Museum of Slovenia.

I'm also incredibly happy to have met many amazing people in the first of, hopefully, many other similar symposia.

And I also had time to see some cool #swords, #castles and a selfie or two!

Unfortunately, tomorrow's episode of The Armoury Roundtable, with Martin Fabian, will be postponed due to a strong fever.

If there is interest, I'm happy to join a more impromptu stream and chat with anyone who wants to join in, so let me know.

I will let you know as soon as the new date with Martin is scheduled!
