Keep going Matt,
This is an ever growing, terrific blog site. Really enjoyed both podcasts so far. Looking forward to the next.
Thanks Sean! I hope you’re enjoying it. Plenty more to come.
It seems to me that Richard had a trigger for violence and that trigger was betrayal. Hastings betrayed him as did the Rivers and Grey at Stony Stratford. I think his trigger originated from having an insecure childhood, having to leave England twice for safety.
His recently diagnosed Intolerance to Uncertainty Syndrome probably exacerbated insecurity and increase his drive for surety.
