26 min • 1 september 2021

We're back for another season featuring the royals, rebels, and romantics of British History! Season Two will bring some new fun to the podcast.  Here's what's ahead:

  • September will be all about Elizabeth I.
  • October will delve into the world of witches and other sorcery.
  • November will give us a chance to remember, remember lots of rebels and rebellions.
  • And December will be a time for festive and famous holiday celebrations!!


We'll also be launching a patron program soon, giving you an opportunity to play a larger role. Stay tuned!

To start us off, here are some questions we're considering  about Elizabeth I.

  • Why was she taken out of the line of succession and then put back in again? 
  • Why did Edward VI disinherit her instead of just passing over Mary and leaving the crown to Elizabeth?
  • Why didn't Mary, who did not like Elizabeth, choose NOT to disinherit her?
  • Why did Mary Queen of Scots claim the English throne?
  • How did people feel about Elizabeth becoming Queen?


It's all Elizabeth, all month!

History shows us what's possible.
