Renaissance English History Podcast: A Show About the Tudors - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I am extremely picky about accuracy and interesting content and this podcast nails both. I like that you can tell this is a passion project and appreciate the amount of preparation the host clearly puts into each episode. I also valued the host (briefly) sharing her experience with pregnancy loss early in the show. It showed considerable bravery and vulnerability and helps bring awareness to a difficult, often ignored experience that impacts many, many people each year. Bravo!

I have always loved this time period but get easily confused with timelines, etc. Heather explains each subject in a way that I can remember details easily and you can tell she is very passionate about Renaissance English History. Plus, I think she has a beautiful podcast voice! If you are a new listener, you must go back through her episodes and listen from the beginning - each episode is so interesting!!

I’ve listened to podcasts since they first came out. Anytime there is more than 1 speaker (eg a show host & a show guest) it’s always risky due to banter & interpersonal dynamics. Heather is the main speaker with an occasional guest. Always Heather is on topic & always the history is presented in a context that is relatable. I ordered the 2026 planner & can’t wait to see it. Her level of professionalism exceeds other podcasts & I for one greatly appreciate Heather staying on topic & presenting so matter-of-factly. I listen to history podcasts as a mental break and appreciate Heather’s professionalism.

Heather is incredible. She calls herself a storyteller, and she is spot on: Tudor history becomes colloquial yet steeped and in research on her show in a way I’ve never experienced before. I love it! Thank you for your body of work, Heather! I’m only through 2019 but I’m catching up. :)
