Customer Reviews
The best
I’ve been listening to this podcast for a very long time. I love her story telling and content. This is one podcast I look forward to every week and I do listen again to ones I’ve heard before.
One of the best Tudor history podcasts ever
Heather is the best, I love the range of topics she covers from how the prepared for winter, holidays and festivals, housing etc. as well as Royals and big notable historic events. She adds a level of detail that makes you notice how much she really loves the subject. I work 11 hour days at a warehouse and this podcasts makes my shift so much better! The two negative reviews I did see on here come from some real insane Karen’s 💀 the podcast is great
HUUUUGE….
