In this episode, we trace his reign from the shadow of his formidable father, Edward I of England, through the controversies that defined his rule - his favoritism, his relationships, and his uneasy connection with the nobility. Why did his choices spark such intense opposition? And how did a king lose control of his own kingdom? As we follow Edward II’s story to his deposition, something unexpected emerges: a king increasingly aware of his own failures - offering, perhaps, a quiet kind of redemption at the very end. -- Listen to Matt on Gone Medieval! -- BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: SPECIAL EVENT on May 9th with Dr. Steven Veerapon on the medical history of Henry VIII.
