A Swig of History - Eadric Streona: The Political Weasel

In this round of A Swig of History, we’re spillin’ pints and tea over Eadric Streona the medieval ladder-climber who made betrayal a bloody hobby. This lad didn’t just switch sides; he pirouetted through allegiances like he was auditioning for Anglo-Saxon Strictly Come Treachery. From sucking up to Æthelred the Unready, to backstabbing Edmund Ironside mid-battle, to giving Viking warlords high-fives behind England’s back Eadric was the slipperiest git in 11th-century politics. We’ll unearth how he talked his way into power, why kings kept trusting him (seriously, why?), and how his head ultimately rolled faster than his loyalties. Grab a pint and brace yourself this ain’t your nana’s history lesson. It’s betrayal, beheadings, and banter, all served frothy and full of sass.
