    History's Mysteries: St. Bartholomew's Day massacre

    In this episode of History’s Mysteries, we’re diving into one of the bloodiest and most debated events in early modern Europe: the St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre. Thousands of French Protestants were brutally murdered in August 1572, after what was supposed to be a royal wedding that symbolized peace. Historians have argued for centuries about who was responsible — and today, we’re asking the big question: Did Catherine de Medici order it? This episode blends historical analysis, feminist storytelling, and intuitive tarot reading to look at Catherine de Medici not as a caricature, but as a complex political operator navigating power, survival, and legacy in a brutal era.

    Anne of Cleves, part 1

    If Henry VIII was on Tinder, would Anne of Cleves swipe right? Would anyone, given his affinity for getting rid of his wives? Probably not. However, since Anne didn't call the shots, she was shipped off to wed the the recently widowed King and be crowned yet another Queen of England.  Join us as we sip on a lightly stirred “Beloved Sister,” a yummy mix of lemon vodka, cranberry juice, orange juice, and ginger beer, while uncovering the sheltered life of King Henry VIII’s lesser-known wife, Anne of Cleves.  Anne had a decent relationship with her parents and sis Amalia, but her bro basically threw her to the big bad wolf just to get back at the King of France. We also hash through the training she endured in preparation for meeting her future husband, only for it to be spoiled by his weird enjoyment of tricking his wives. What a jerk. At least the drink tastes good!         In this episode, you’ll also hear: Bad bitches vs. fragile dick energy  Choosing Amalia or Anne for a marital alliance What do you mean she lost her head? King Stanky Leg’s shitty welcome  Must-listen moments:  [00:07:00] Not a lot is known about her mother, but we do know that her mother, Maria, sat in what we'd consider Congress or Parliament or something like that. She actually signed bills and was not passive.   [00:37:00] He just becomes very hyper-focused on making sure that he has all the best everything for her when she arrives, which is kind of sweet in his weird little way.  [00:52:00] Anne immediately realized her mistake, and somebody was like, oh, by the way, that is the king. And she apologized and bowed and…for weeks she was practicing how their first meeting would go and how she would painstakingly practice how she would bow and exactly what she would say and in English…and to have it just completely thrown out the window.  Find out more about Queen Anne of Cleves in Part 2: https://pod.fo/e/f82b5 Check out our Tudor Women Spotify playlist for more if you like this topic.

    Jane Seymour

    Divorced, beheaded, died. Queen Jane Seymour has entered the Tudor chat. Today we cover the third (and favorite?) wife of Henry VIII of England. Plain Jane is often overlooked and assumed to be a less interesting woman that Henry's other queens. (I mean, really tho. Who looks all that interesting when compared to Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn?) Was she as boring as everyone thinks or just like, really smart? How do you think she felt when her predecessor lost her head? Did she really feel as loved as Henry claimed he loved her after she was gone? Today's cocktail is a new twist on the Old Fashion (because maybe Jane was a little old fashioned)! Enjoy!

    LGBTQ Life in Weimar Germany

    In this episode, Greg Jenner is joined in twentieth-century Germany by Dr Bodie Ashton and comedian Jordan Gray to learn all about LGBTQ life and culture during the Weimar Republic. After the failure of the First World War and the abdication of Kaiser Wilhelm II, German politics underwent something of a revolution. With the end of the old imperial order came the questioning of its conservative social values, and feminist and socialist campaigners sought to rethink old assumptions about gender roles, family life and sexuality. Part of this included a flourishing of LGBTQ life and culture in the 1920s and early 1930s. In this episode, Greg and his guests explore the political and economic circumstances of Weimar Germany, queer club culture, magazines and filmmaking; alongside research into sexuality and campaigns for transgender and gay liberation, to discover why Weimar Germany was such a focal point for LGBTQ life in this period. Hosted by: Greg Jenner Research by: Jon Norman Mason Written by: Emmie Rose Price-Goodfellow, Emma Nagouse, and Greg Jenner Produced by: Emmie Rose Price-Goodfellow and Greg Jenner Audio Producer: Steve Hankey Production Coordinator: Ben Hollands Senior Producer: Emma Nagouse Executive Editor: James Cook

    Mary Anning

    In this episode, Greg Jenner is joined in nineteenth-century England by Dr Michael Taylor and comedian Sara Pascoe to learn all about pioneering palaeontologist Mary Anning. Born to a cabinet-maker father who collected and sold fossils to make extra money, Anning went fossil hunting from a young age. Over the course of her life, she discovered complete ichthyosaur, plesiosaur and pterosaur skeletons, and made great contributions to the emerging discipline of palaeontology. But she was also shut out by the largely male scientific establishment. This episode charts her extraordinary life story, exploring the significance of her discoveries against the background of nineteenth-century debates about religion and science and controversies around the age of the earth.

    Printing in England

    In this episode, Greg Jenner is joined in 15th-Century England by Dr Lydia Zeldenrust and comedian Robin Ince to learn all about the early history of book printing. 2024 marks the 550th anniversary of the first book printed in English: a history of Troy, produced in 1474 by William Caxton. In the decades that followed, numerous printing shops would be set up across the country, and a huge variety of texts printed, including those that carried potentially dangerous ideas. Starting with the origins of printing in East Asia, this episode explores the first century of printing in England, looking at how books were produced and by whom, what sorts of texts were being printed, who was reading them, and how the state reacted to this new industry.
