Tudors Dynasty & Beyond - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Been a listener for a few years now and this podcast continues to get better over time. The quality of the guests is superb and the discussion topics are fascinating with something for everyone and all interest levels. It has introduced me to a number of historians, books, and travel ideas (wolf hall weekend!).

I loved today’s episode with Dr Taffe about Jane Boleyn. He sounded like a friend you’d have coffee with where deep conversation occurs organically. I’m sorry that he has to defend himself of being accused of misogyny, but he explained his perception and with much respect. It’s clear that he takes his studies seriously and I hope others pick up on that too. I am definitely getting the book. Truth be told, my personal library is expanding with every episode. Thank you for another enlightening podcast.

the episode about Anne Boleyn with Prof John Guy and Julia Fox was unbearable because Prof. Guy rudely dominated the discussion and talked over Julia Fox EVERY time she tried to speak. He interrupted her whenever she managed to get a few words in, and then veered way off topic, pompously running on just to hear himself speak. Please ask your guests to respect their co-guests, and please edit the podcast! Love the topic but had to stop listening.

I cannot tell you how much joy I draw from this podcast! Rebecca has done a wonderful job from the very beginning and I am so grateful that she is still doing this. Thank you for finding all those “juicy” details on one of the most fascinating dynasties. Any idea if you may create something about some other famous European families?

6:45 in (of an hour + episode) before getting to the topic at hand—Tudor gifting. The content is solid, but it’s less than professionally done. Which is fine. But I’d prefer less non topical banter.
