Today we have a second special for you from our place as podcasters in residence at the Gloucester History Festival, and joining Paul today is a return rager in the form of Author and Historian Nathen Amin who has come back to rail at the more extremist elements of Ricardian culture (as very distinct from the Richard III Society) and how they go too far.

We'll hear a surprising defence of Richard and how he just might not be the architect of his own downfall.

You can, and should, read Nathen's book Henry VII and the Tudor Pretenders and this is available in the History Rage Bookshop and you can follow Nicola on Twitter @nathenamin

If you’ve not managed to make it this year then the festival returns twice in 2024, those dates are 12th April to 14th April and 7th September to 22nd September 2024.

You can sign up to the Festival Mailing List at gloucesterhistoryfestival.co.uk and follow them on Twitter @gloshistfest
