I answer the final batch of questions which came in after 1453. They are mostly fun speculation or about me and the podcast.
Our Constantine Acrostic
Christianized the Roman state,
Oldest offspring of the Great.
Nearly reigned one hundred days,
Saved the city, so they say.
Theophanes called him dung,
Assassinated by his mum.
Noted writer, purple born,
The Slayer's brother earns our scorn.
If Monomachos tried his best,
No Doukas could save the rest.
Eleven fell amongst the crowd,
So his forebears would be proud.
