“Not Just the Tudors is in my top three favorites podcasts. The gorgeous voiced Suzannah Lipscomb dives deep into the history of the age, and we are reminded that historical figures are humans with familiar motivations that the modern listener can understand. Since I’m new, I’ve jumped around listening to at least 30 episodes and was particularly moved by the Hilary Mantel tribute (I still can’t believe she’s gone). I love learning new things like the significance of Arthur Tudor’s name, that Thomas Boleyn wasn’t a pimp, the importance of Eustace Chapuys’ observations to our understanding on this period etc. Substantial, entertaining, educational fun! So glad I found her!”
