  • English history lover

    I’m a Texan with original roots in the UK and I just can’t get enough of English history. This podcast helps feed my habit. It’s hard for me not to listen to the podcast and not eventually get back to the show notes on the website. Love it. Particularly a big fan of Sarah’s, both the podcast and her Instagram.

  • Essential listening for Tudor history lovers and just like being there…

    At this point I have listened to just about every episode of Sarah’s wonderful podcast so that may illustrate best how much I love it! It is so atmospheric, as you hear actual sounds of the site along with Sarah’s vivid visual descriptions and videographer/photographer Chris’ beautiful images of some of the most famous sites in this period of history and beyond. As expert local guides show Sarah around, her expertise shines through in the questions and comments she adds. It is as if she is ch... more

  • Too much self-importance, too little info

    13 minutes into the Wolsey/ipswich episode, nothing of importance was said. Advertising own business only. At that point, I gave up

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Chirk Castle: Exploring Seven Centuries of History
Q: What happened to Chirk Castle after the Middleton era and up to today?
The castle stayed in the Middleton line for generations, passed through various hands during the Civil War period, and ultimately was handed to the National Trust in 1981, with archives now preserved at the National Library of Wales.
Chirk Castle: Exploring Seven Centuries of History
Q: What is the significance of Middleton's Welsh connections and cultural projects, such as the Welsh Bible?
Middleton's Welsh background and patronage, including supporting the Welsh Bible, reflect a broader cultural philanthropy that helped preserve the Welsh language and showcased Middleton's status as a culturally aware Elizabethan entrepreneur.
Chirk Castle: Exploring Seven Centuries of History
Q: How did Thomas Middleton transition from a London grocer to a castle owner and prominent figure of the Elizabethan era?
He built a fortune as a merchant adventurer tied to sugar refining, privateering-backed ventures, and later the East India Company, using that wealth to purchase Chirk Castle and finance its transformation into a family home.
Within the Tower Walls: Commemorating Anne Boleyn
Q: What do you think life was like for a high-status prisoner like Anne Boleyn at the Tower?
High-status prisoners could enjoy suites and maids, yet their experience was still bounded by confinement and surveillance; privileges varied with the jailer's decisions, money, and the era's circumstances.
Peterborough Cathedral and the Final Resting Place of Katherine of Aragon
Q: Why was Katherine buried here and not, for example, taken to London for a royal burial?
Henry didn't want her to be buried in London because he feared that there might be some popular unrest.
