Hooray! We made it to our 50th episode!

We talk about our favorite Tudor’s childhood. All the drama, romance, and daddy issues you could ask for. 

Jeff and Garrett get educated on what Scotland was up to during the Tudor times. Spoilers: the lords were angry a lot. 

Henry VII faced a couple of threats in the first part of his reign, and everybody wanted to be the Earl of Warick. 

We chat about Henry VIII’s obsession with selfie-portraits and super expensive tapestries. And then there was all the music playing as a constant soundtrack.

And Emily learns something about Hans Holbein.

So many Popes, so little time.

We chat about the Tudor Popes and how they affected the Tudor monarchs.  

F%#*€$ing Cromwell. 

From lowly butcher’s son to king’s closest advisor, Cromwell weaseled his way to the top. But he didn’t end up a-head.

See what I did there?

In the spirit of Halloween, we share the most well-known ghost sightings of our favorite Tudors. 

Let's get spooky. 

We finally discuss Henry VII, the how-the-f*£!-did-he-become-king King of England. He had a pretty crazy childhood that involved some wars and some roses and a chick named Brittany, and France was there, too. And then he became king! His reign brought peace to a kingdom tired of war. 

Happy Anniversary to us! It's been a year since we launched Tudor I Hardly Know Her, so we tested Garrett and Jeff to see if they have been paying attention. And one of our lucky listeners won a prize, so be sure to see if you're one of them! Sponsored by Ferd's Codpiece Emporium. 

Who'd have thought an old man with a penchant for wax effigies was the original 007? We discuss how Elizabeth Tudor set up the original MI6 and whether she had the headquarters listed on Ye Olde Wikipedia.
