In this #AtE, Steph is joined by author, historian, and storyteller extraordinaire - Dave Tonge. Dave shares some fun bits of history and even tells us a good tale. Trust me; it will blow your mind.

In Tudor times, the ‘common sort’ were no different from us, laughing together, mocking each other, and sharing bawdy tales in tavern yards, marketplaces, and anywhere else that people came together. These stories were later collected in the cheap print of the period, and professional storyteller Dave Tonge has sought them out to assemble here. Within these pages hide smooth-talking tricksters, lusty knaves, wayward youths and stories of the eternal struggle to wear the breeches in the family, for a sometimes coarse but often comic telling of the everyday ups and downs in Tudor life.

f you heard our last episode about Anne of Cleves called The Lucky Wife, you'll recall we briefly touched on climate at the time of the Tudors as well as the Little Ice Age. This episode is meant to supplement that one, but could also be heard as a standalone. Also, you'll get a little insight into Rebecca as a kid. Enjoy!

Anne of Cleves is quickly becoming one of the most popular of Henry VIII's six queens. Thanks partly to today's guest, historian Heather Darsie.

Think you've heard everything you've ever wanted to know about this fourth "wife" of Henry VIII? Think again! Today I've had some bombshells dropped on me that I did not expect. At the end of the episode, Heather tells us something quirky about Anne of Cleves that you will not expect - I sure didn't!

We continue today with Chapter Two of In Her Words. In this episode we really get a feel for Sophia of Hanover's personality and how she felt about her brother, her sister-in-law and a possible suitor. This is such a fun look into 17th century history, we are not often gifted enough.
