I think I see the problem. You're focusing on where I said "pretend we've got things better societally than medieval people".
Let me clarify.
This is a broadcast about manners. The clear implication was that medieval people thought murdering each other over pub arguments was within the realm of good manners.
What I intended to say is, not only is this laughably untrue, but it didn't happen then any more than it happens today, where we ostensibly do NOT consider it good manners.
The only point in making this assertion is, indeed, to make it sound like medieval people were less mannerly than we are.
But it has a secondary effect of shutting down investigation into how they lived.
For instance, did you know about the industrial revolution - of the 12th and 13th centuries? Did you know that 700 years ago there were churches that had astronomical clocks that predicted eclipses? How many medieval buildings still exist in their mostly original form, centuries later? How many 20th century buildings of note are already falling apart? Frank Lloyd Wright couldn't even build houses that kept the rain out.
The point is, nobody knows any of this stuff unless they're a nerd for it. The entire era just gets dismissed because "they murdered each other at pub". There is a hell of a lot to learn from those people - yes, even in the realm of medicine - and none of it gets learned if the overall attitude is willful ignorance for reasons which are demonstrably false.

you could run through lists and lists of the rude things that people do
mobile phones must be top of the list
men who go to the toilet in the pub and leave the toilet door wide open
old people in the post office who have to waste time telling the clark about their daughters holiday when the clark doesn't even know who her daughter is(no prejudice intended, but ive never seen a young person do that)
people who have to shout to someone else from a distance rather than walk over to them
that's 4 - any more for any more

That last point about bumping into someone and it's both your faults, and you apologise and the other person doesn't... yes, David, I completely agree. It sends me into an internal rage (of course I'm too polite to vocalise said rage, but still).

Quite nice to hear a bunch of well educated and clear thinking kids who know how to express themselves...

Listening to this in the first week of January 2020. It's well written, concise and a joy of listen to.

As a Canadian, I really felt a great connection to this, particularly that last bit in which they discussed saying “Sorry” all the time and being a little bit scandalized when someone doesn’t say it in return.
