Joan of Arc
51:42|A deep dive into Joan of Arc — the teenage girl who became one of history's most enduring icons. Jem unpacks the real story behind the legend: the brutal, decades-long war between England and France, how a 16-year-old hearing voices managed to turn the tide of a 75-year losing streak, and why her brief, three-year story has fueled 500 years of movies, operas, pop songs, and pop culture obsession. From Warhammer to Bill & Ted, Joan's fingerprints are everywhere — and this episode asks why.
