    The Mayflower and Spanish Armada in Plymouth

    The Mayflower and Spanish Armada in Plymouth

    Nigel and I traveled to Plymouth to film at the steps where the Mayflower launched in 1620. While it’s not Tudor history, it is a significant chapter in both English and American history. On our way to this historic spot, I encountered so many fascinating sights that I wanted to share with you!

    My Chat with the Earl of Devon at Powderham Castle

    My Chat with the Earl of Devon at Powderham Castle

    This was one of those surreal, pinch-me moments I experienced on my trip to England. It’s not every day you get the chance to interview a member of the peerage, and doing so in his own home was truly extraordinary—I can scarcely believe it happened, had I not captured it on video.

    As the current Earl of Devon, Charlie Courtenay descends from a long line of Courtenay men who skillfully navigated history's challenges. Charlie, as he likes to be called, was an absolute delight to talk to about his family history and his current residence.

Pleasant

I love the show love the content. I’ve learned so much just letting it play in my ear while working. One thing I’m really impressed about is the historians and their willingness to take the time out to discuss topics and they are all just the nicest people you could meet. Several of them have their own shows or are very well known from tv and I just feel like part of an elite group of Tudor historians lol I love it

Too Much Commotion in the Background

I really wanted to hear about Margret Tudor but I was too distracted with all of the background noises. Maybe record from a studio or somewhere quiet next time??

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Love this podcast & have been listening to it A LOT lately. Dr Emma Cahill-Marron is a brilliant guest & I just adore her. Learning from people as passionate as Rebecca Larson & Dr. Emma is so fun & I want them to be my history-besties.
