Crowned ruler of a chaotic, divided kingdom in 1474, Isabel transformed Castile into a powerhouse and helped forge the foundation of modern Spain. But was she a visionary queen and unifier of a fractured land or a zealot whose decisions cast long shadows? Professor Suzannah Lipscomb is joined by Isabel's biographer Giles Tremlett to explore her rise to power and her forging of a strategic alliance with Ferdinand of Aragon.MORE:Christopher Columbushttps://open.spotify.com/episode/5irll7mMs6rpkFvQR3L5VRVelazquez & the Spanish Courthttps://open.spotify.com/episode/68UKq5ABg5mPJTAwk8vqLrPresented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

Send us a textWelcome to a captivating conversation with Alexa Aragon, the rising trail running star who's taken the mountain running scene by storm. With remarkable top-10 finishes at the Broken Arrow Sky Race, Sunapee Scramble, and most recently, a second-place finish at Cirque Series Snowbird, Alexa has quickly established herself as someone the trail running world needs to watch.What makes Alexa's story particularly fascinating is her unorthodox path. Unlike many elite trail runners, she balances her competitive pursuits with a full-time career as a middle school math teacher. Growing up in Montana in a family of runners (her parents literally met at a track meet!), Alexa excelled as a steeplechaser at Notre Dame before stepping away from competitive running to work in public health in Ecuador. It wasn't until moving to Utah's Wasatch Mountains that she rediscovered her competitive spirit through local trail races.Alexa shares her refreshingly unconventional approach to training - "It's a little chaotic, it's just kind of what I feel like and what makes me have fun." Without a coach or structured program, she runs 30-40 miles weekly, complemented by rock climbing and mountain biking. Her race strategy? "Full send and find out" - a fearless approach that's yielded impressive results against established professionals. We dig into her experiences at Broken Arrow, her mountaineering adventures (including a 42-hour attempt at the WURL), and her passion for introducing underrepresented youth to outdoor sports through her school's adventure club.Whether you're a competitive trail runner, weekend warrior, or simply love inspiring stories of people forging their own path, Alexa's journey demonstrates how making running truly your own can lead to unexpected success and genuine fulfillment. Follow along as she shares her experiences from hiding under rocks during thunderstorms to standing on podiums alongside the sport's biggest names.Follow Alexa on IG - @_lexi_aragonFollow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podUse code steepstuffpod for 25% off your cart at UltimateDirection.com! 

Tre marche diverse sul podio, Ducati, Aprilia e KTM ma un solo vincitore seriale: Marc Marquez. Al quinto successo consecutivo, un record per Ducati, in una serie iniziata ad Aragon l'8 giugno scorso, anche a Brno l'otto volte iridato ha fatto il bello ed il cattivo tempo, in pista. Dopo il sorpasso su Marco Bezzecchi, all'8° giro, Marc non ha lasciato al principale avversario alcuna illusione di rimonta, abbassando i suoi tempi ogniqualvolta ne aveva bisogno dimostrando un controllo assoluto della gara. E dire che Bez non ha mai mollato, illudendosi di tenere sotto pressione un rivale che in realtà stava guidando con l'overdrive inserito. In assoluta e totale scioltezza.E' stata una gara veloce, nei tempi, ma lenta nello svolgimento perché non appena Pedro Acosta ha raggiunto la terza posizione superando un Bagnaia come sempre un po' in bambola nelle prime fasi della corsa, le posizioni sono rimaste congelate. Perlomeno fintantoché Pecco si è svegliato sul finale recuperando sulla KTM dello Squalo. Ma era ormai troppo tardi per salire sul podio.Otto vittorie su 12 Gran Premi disputati, 11 successi su 12 Sprint, per Marquez non ci sono più aggettivi: sta dominando, ed è troppo semplice dire che la Ducati ha costruito la GP25 addosso a lui. Può essere che Marc abbia indirizzato lo sviluppo in una direzione a lui favorevole? L'ipotesi non è da escludere, eppure durante i test invernali entrambi i piloti, lo spagnolo e l'italiano, facevano a gara a dire di essere d'accordo sull'evoluzione.Quel che è certo è che oggi senza di lui non si direbbe che la Ducati domina sulla concorrenza, ed è indubbio che l'Aprilia si sta avvicinando a grandi passi se riconosciamo che Marquez ha qualcosa in più, magari soltanto per esperienza e sicurezza, nei confronti di Bezzecchi.(continua a leggere)Parlano dell'ultimo GP prima della pausa estiva Carletto, Paolo, Andrea e Tiziano (dalla California)

 44 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a treasure hidden in a field. Which a man having found, hid it, and for joy thereof goeth, and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.Simile est regnum caelorum thesauro abscondito in agro : quem qui invenit homo, abscondit, et prae gaudio illius vadit, et vendit universa quae habet, et emit agrum illum. 45 Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a merchant seeking good pearls.Iterum simile est regnum caelorum homini negotiatori, quaerenti bonas margaritas. 46 Who when he had found one pearl of great price, went his way, and sold all that he had, and bought it.Inventa autem una pretiosa margarita, abiit, et vendidit omnia quae habuit, et emit eam. 47 Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a net cast into the sea, and gathering together of all kind of fishes.Iterum simile est regnum caelorum sagenae missae in mare, et ex omni genere piscium congreganti. 48 Which, when it was filled, they drew out, and sitting by the shore, they chose out the good into vessels, but the bad they cast forth.Quam, cum impleta esset, educentes, et secus littus sedentes, elegerunt bonis in vasa, malos autem foras miserunt. 49 So shall it be at the end of the world. The angels shall go out, and shall separate the wicked from among the just.Sic erit in consummatione saeculi : exibunt angeli, et separabunt malos de medio justorum, 50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.et mittent eos in caminum ignis : ibi erit fletus, et stridor dentium. 51 Have ye understood all these things? They say to him: Yes.Intellexistis haec omnia? Dicunt ei : Etiam. 52 He said unto them: Therefore every scribe instructed in the kingdom of heaven, is like to a man that is a householder, who bringeth forth out of his treasure new things and old.Ait illis : Ideo omnis scriba doctus in regno caelorum, similis est homini patrifamilias, qui profert de thesauro suo nova et vetera.The daughter of the Queen of Aragon and the grandniece of St Elizabeth of Hungary, St Elizabeth married Denis, King of Portugal. Becoming a widow, she entered the Order of the Poor Clares and died A.D. 1336.

Full Text of ReadingsFriday of the Thirteenth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 381The Saint of the day is Saint Elizabeth of PortugalSaint Elizabeth of Portugal’s Story Elizabeth is usually depicted in royal garb with a dove or an olive branch. At her birth in 1271, her father Pedro III, future king of Aragon, was reconciled with his father James, the reigning monarch. This proved to be a portent of things to come. Under the healthful influences surrounding her early years, she quickly learned self-discipline and acquired a taste for spirituality. Thus fortunately prepared, Elizabeth was able to meet the challenge when at the age of 12, she was given in marriage to Denis, king of Portugal. She was able to establish for herself a pattern of life conducive to growth in God's love, not merely through her exercises of piety, including daily Mass, but also through her exercise of charity, by which she was able to befriend and help pilgrims, strangers, the sick, the poor—in a word, all those whose need came to her notice. At the same time she remained devoted to her husband, whose infidelity to her was a scandal to the kingdom. Denis, too, was the object of many of her peace endeavors. Elizabeth long sought peace for him with God, and was finally rewarded when he gave up his life of sin. She repeatedly sought and effected peace between the king and their rebellious son Alfonso, who thought that he was passed over to favor the king's illegitimate children. She acted as peacemaker in the struggle between Ferdinand, king of Aragon, and his cousin James, who claimed the crown. And finally from Coimbra, where she had retired as a Franciscan tertiary to the monastery of the Poor Clares after the death of her husband, Elizabeth set out and was able to bring about a lasting peace between her son Alfonso, now king of Portugal, and his son-in-law, the king of Castile. Reflection The work of promoting peace is anything but a calm and quiet endeavor. It takes a clear mind, a steady spirit and a brave soul to intervene between people whose emotions are so aroused that they are ready to destroy one another. This is all the more true of a woman in the early 14th century. But Elizabeth had a deep and sincere love and sympathy for humankind, an almost total lack of concern for herself, and an abiding confidence in God. These were the tools of her success.

Durante años fue costumbre en el sistema educativo español hacer aprender a los alumnos la lista de los reyes godos. Por fortuna eso ya no es necesario, pero los reyes de la Hispania visigoda aún se siguen estudiando. Esos reyes tuvieron reinas, que en muchas ocasiones desempeñaron un papel destacado al que las crónicas de la época no suelen hacer justicia. Su influencia se dejó sentir en la política, la religión y en la misma consolidación del poder del monarca. Eso contribuyó mucho a la siempre comprometida estabilidad del reino visigodo. Las fuentes históricas, como las crónicas de Isidoro de Sevilla o el "Chronicon" de Juan de Bíclaro, ofrecen escasos detalles sobre estas mujeres, pero los indicios disponibles revelan su relevancia en la corte y la sociedad. Las reinas visigodas no sólo actuaban como consortes, sino que, en muchos casos, eran piezas importantes en las alianzas políticas. Los matrimonios entre la nobleza visigoda y otras elites, como las hispanorromanas o las francas, fortalecían la cohesión del reino. Por ejemplo, Gosvinta, esposa de los reyes Atanagildo y Leovigildo, destacó por su ambición y su papel en las intrigas cortesanas. Tras enviudar de Atanagildo, se casó con Leovigildo, consolidando su posición como una figura de autoridad. Gosvinta también participó en conflictos religiosos. Defendía el arrianismo frente al catolicismo, lo que generó muchas tensiones en un reino que buscaba la unificación religiosa. Otra figura notable fue Baddo, esposa de Recaredo, que acompañó a su esposo en la conversión al catolicismo durante el Tercer Concilio de Toledo en el año 589. Aunque las fuentes no detallan sus acciones, su presencia en un momento tan trascendental sugiere que el papel que desempeñó fue relevante. La conversión de Recaredo al catolicismo no solo unificó religiosamente al reino, sino que también integró a la población hispanorromana, y las reinas, como Baddo, fueron esenciales para legitimar estas transformaciones. El papel de las reinas también se extendía a la esfera familiar, donde influían en la educación de los herederos y en la sucesión. En un sistema donde la monarquía no siempre era hereditaria, las reinas podían actuar como regentes o mediadoras en disputas dinásticas. En el reino visigodo era común que los usurpadores se casasen con las viudas de sus predecesores para legitimarse. Eso sí, algunas reinas, como Liuvigoto, esposa de Ervigio y prima de Wamba, participaron también en conspiraciones. La vida de estas mujeres no estuvo exenta de peligros. Las intrigas palaciegas, los asesinatos y las purgas eran comunes, y muchas reinas se vieron envueltas en estos conflictos. No es mucho lo que sabemos de ellas de forma directa, pero si es fácil intuir que el reino visigodo de Toledo también fue mecido por manos femeninas. Con la invasión musulmana de 711, el reino visigodo colapsó, y con él, el rastro de sus reinas se desvaneció. Traerlas de nuevo a la vida es lo que trata de hacer Daniel Gómez Aragonés con un libro que acaba de ver la luz: “Reinas godas: Las mujeres que pusieron la semilla de España”, publicado por La Esfera de los Libros y que salió al mercado hace unos meses.

The Sixena murals are late 12th to early 13th-century Romanesque wall paintings from the Monastery of Santa María de Sixena in Aragon. They were moved to Barcelona during the Spanish Civil War for preservation and are currently on display at the National Art Museum of Catalonia in Barcelona. On this week's podcast, we explore the ongoing debate over their place of exhibition, which highlights deeper regional and cultural tensions in Spain.  Reporter Cillian Shields visits the MNAC to learn more about the history, restoration and conservation of the frescoes. Art historian Albert Velasco explains the controversy over their location, in which Aragon claims rightful ownership and demands their immediate return to the Sixena monastery, whilst experts highlight the importance of a controlled environment for conservation and warn that moving them may cause irreparable damage due to their fragility.  Host Beth Cohen draws parallels with other relocated artworks and raises questions about the responsibility to protect cultural heritage regardless of political disputes. This week, our Catalan phrase is “Compartir és viure” - “To share is to live”. A modern and commonly used phrase in Catalonia, it expresses the idea that sharing is an essential part of a meaningful life, fostering a sense of community and human connection.

A finales de la antigüedad irrumpió desde la estepa un pueblo que sembraría el terror y alteraría el curso de la historia del imperio romano: los hunos. Estos nómadas ecuestres, rápidos y muy diestros en el combate, iniciaron una migración hacia el oeste en el siglo IV que empujó a otros pueblos hacia el limes romano. Su llegada forzó a pueblos germánicos como los godos a buscar refugio dentro de las fronteras del imperio Romano, un movimiento que pondría en jaque a las dos porciones del imperio y terminaría provocando la desaparición de su parte occidental. Fue en el siglo V cuando la amenaza huna alcanzó su punto álgido bajo el mando de su figura más legendaria: Atila. Nacido en algún momento a principios del siglo V, Atila, junto con su hermano Bleda, heredó el control de una gran confederación de tribus. Tras el asesinato de Bleda en el 445 (un acto atribuido por las fuentes al propio Atila), Atila consolidó su poder sin oposición, construyendo un gran imperio que se extendía desde el Cáucaso hasta el Rin. Era un estratega brillante y un líder carismático, capaz de inspirar una lealtad férrea en sus seguidores y un pavor paralizante en sus enemigos. Se decía que donde pisaba su caballo, no volvía a crecer la hierba. Con Atila los hunos no solo exigían altos tributos a los imperios romano de Occidente y Oriente, sino que también lanzaban devastadoras campañas militares que dejaban a su paso ciudades en ruinas y poblaciones diezmadas. Su campaña más famosa comenzó en el año 451, cuando Atila dirigió a sus hordas hacia las Galias. Su objetivo era saquear sus ricas provincias, pero se encontró con una resistencia formidable. En los Campos Cataláunicos (cerca de la actual Châlons-en-Champagne), Atila se encontró frente a una improbable coalición formada por las legiones romanas del general Aecio y las fuerzas visigodas del rey Teodorico. Fue una de las batallas más grandes y recordadas de la antigüedad, un choque entre el poder nómada y la resistencia romano-germánica. Aunque la batalla terminó sin un vencedor claro, Atila sufrió grandes pérdidas y su avance fue frenado, lo que le obligó a retirarse de la Galia. Lejos de estar derrotado, al año siguiente, en el 452, dirigió su atención hacia Italia. Cruzó los Alpes y asoló ciudades como Aquileya, Mediolanum (Milán) y Pavía, dejando un rastro de destrucción. Cuando se acercaba a Roma, la capital del Imperio occidental parecía condenada. Pero, en un sorprendente giro de los acontecimientos, el Papa León I el Magno, acompañado por dos senadores de alto rango, salió al encuentro de Atila a las afueras de la ciudad. Lo que se dijo en esa reunión sigue siendo un misterio, pero el resultado fue que Atila decidió perdonar a Roma y retirarse de Italia, una decisión que algunos atribuyen a la persuasión papal y otros a factores logísticos como la escasez de provisiones y una epidemia en sus filas. La retirada de Italia marcó su último gran acto. En el año 453, en la misma noche de su boda con su última esposa, Ildico, Atila murió repentinamente en su lecho, quizá por envenenamiento. Su muerte fue tan rápida como su ascenso, y con ella, el imperio huno comenzó a desintegrarse a la misma velocidad a la que se había levantado. Sin el liderazgo unificador de Atila, las tribus que había sometido se rebelaron y el poder huno se disolvió en unos pocos años. Para hablar de este tema, que es una promesa que os hicimos Federico Romero y yo hace poco más de un mes, vuelve Federico a La ContraHistoria. Lo hace de la mano de Daniel Gómez Aragonés, que nos recibe en el museo de la España mágica de Toledo, un lugar de imprescindible visita en la ciudad imperial que hoy se ha transformado en un estudio de radio.

Henry's joint coronation with his wife, Catherine of Aragon, marked the start of a 38 year rule, during which England experienced political, religious, and dynastic changes that dramatically altered the landscape of English ...

Full Text of ReadingsMonday of the Twelfth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 371The Saint of the day is Saint John FisherSaint John Fisher's Story John Fisher is usually associated with Erasmus, Thomas More, and other Renaissance humanists. His life therefore, did not have the external simplicity found in the lives of some saints. Rather, he was a man of learning, associated with the intellectuals and political leaders of his day. He was interested in the contemporary culture and eventually became chancellor at Cambridge. He had been made a bishop at 35, and one of his interests was raising the standard of preaching in England. Fisher himself was an accomplished preacher and writer. His sermons on the penitential psalms were reprinted seven times before his death. With the coming of Lutheranism, he was drawn into controversy. His eight books against heresy gave him a leading position among European theologians. In 1521, Fisher was asked to study the question of King Henry VIII's marriage to Catherine of Aragon, his brother's widow. He incurred Henry's anger by defending the validity of the king's marriage with Catherine, and later by rejecting Henry's claim to be the supreme head of the Church of England. In an attempt to be rid of him, Henry first had Fisher accused of not reporting all the “revelations” of the nun of Kent, Elizabeth Barton. In feeble health, Fisher was summoned to take the oath to the new Act of Succession. He and Thomas More refused to do so because the Act presumed the legality of Henry's divorce and his claim to be head of the English Church. They were sent to the Tower of London, where Fisher remained 14 months without trial. Finally both men were sentenced to life imprisonment and loss of goods. When the two were called to further interrogations, they remained silent. On the supposition that he was speaking privately as a priest, Fisher was tricked into declaring again that the king was not supreme head of the church in England. The king, further angered that the pope had made John Fisher a cardinal, had him brought to trial on the charge of high treason. He was condemned and executed, his body left to lie all day on the scaffold and his head hung on London Bridge. More was executed two weeks later. John Fisher’s liturgical feast is celebrated on June 22. Reflection Today many questions are raised about Christians' and priests' active involvement in social issues. John Fisher remained faithful to his calling as a priest and bishop. He strongly upheld the teachings of the Church; the very cause of his martyrdom was his loyalty to Rome. He was involved in the cultural enrichment circles as well as in the political struggles of his time. This involvement caused him to question the moral conduct of the leadership of his country. “The Church has the right, indeed the duty, to proclaim justice on the social, national and international level, and to denounce instances of injustice, when the fundamental rights of man and his very salvation demand it” (Justice in the World, 1971 Synod of Bishops).

Full Text of ReadingsThe Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ Lectionary: 169The Saint of the day is Saint Thomas MoreSaint Thomas More's Story His belief that no lay ruler has jurisdiction over the Church of Christ cost Thomas More his life. Beheaded on Tower Hill, London, on July 6, 1535, More steadfastly refused to approve King Henry VIII's divorce and remarriage and establishment of the Church of England. Described as “a man for all seasons,” More was a literary scholar, eminent lawyer, gentleman, father of four children, and chancellor of England. An intensely spiritual man, he would not support the king's divorce from Catherine of Aragon in order to marry Anne Boleyn. Nor would he acknowledge Henry as supreme head of the Church in England, breaking with Rome, and denying the pope as head. More was committed to the Tower of London to await trial for treason: not swearing to the Act of Succession and the Oath of Supremacy. Upon conviction, More declared he had all the councils of Christendom and not just the council of one realm to support him in the decision of his conscience. Reflection Four hundred years later in 1935, Thomas More was canonized a saint of God. Few saints are more relevant to our time. In the year 2000, in fact, Pope John Paul II named him patron of political leaders. The supreme diplomat and counselor, he did not compromise his own moral values in order to please the king, knowing that true allegiance to authority is not blind acceptance of everything that authority wants. King Henry himself realized this and tried desperately to win his chancellor to his side because he knew More was a man whose approval counted, a man whose personal integrity no one questioned. But when Thomas More resigned as chancellor, unable to approve the two matters that meant most to Henry, the king had to get rid of him.

In this captivating episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill welcomes the renowned historian and author Alison Weir, celebrated for her extensive work on the Tudor period. Together, they navigate the tumultuous waters of Henry VIII's reign, debunking myths and uncovering truths about his infamous marital struggles. The Myth of Henry's Brain Damage: Alison passionately disputes the widely held belief that Henry VIII suffered from brain damage following a horse riding accident in 1536. She argues that this narrative, stemming from a dubious foreign source, inaccurately portrays a sudden change in the king's character, when in fact, his violent tendencies had been developing for years.Catherine of Aragon's Marriage: Delve into the complexities of Henry's marriage to Catherine of Aragon as Alison elucidates the arguments surrounding their annulment. She highlights the significant role of canon law and the political pressures faced by Pope Clement VII, shedding light on the genuine motivations behind Henry's desire to divorce.Anne Boleyn and the Tudor Court: The episode examines the dynamics between Catherine and Anne Boleyn, challenging the romanticised narratives that often pit the two women against each other. Alison offers a nuanced perspective on Anne's character and the political machinations at play during this turbulent period.Guest Information:Discover more about Alison Weir's work by checking out her books on Tudor England.

Vocabulario, gramática… cuando aprendemos un idioma, una de las principales dificultades son los dichos, las frases hechas, las expresiones coloquiales. Ahora, una  nueva publicación facilita la posibilidad de conocer el aragonés desde el castellano. Al menos, esa parece ser la intención de Fernando Romanos y Chabier Tierz en “Diccionario de fraseolochía básica de l´aragonés” que consiguen otra cosa, demostrar como el paisaje define la lengua o al menos, su uso. Con ellos entramos en el apasionante mundo de la filología en la Torre de Babel.Pedro Abelardo, conocido como el "León de París", que fue filósofo, poeta y músico, que está considerado el primer intelectual urbano de la edad media, que falleció en 1142 y que dejó para la historia y la literatura una gran historia de amor imposible, compartida durante décadas con Eloísa, discípula, amante y esposa. Su historia de cuenta en las cartas que se cruzaron y ha sido analizada y reinterpretada decenas de veces en los siglos que vendrían después. José Luis Corral narró esta historia en una novela “El amor y la muerte” que ahora podemos leer y disfrutar en Pregunta ediciones. Con José Luis Corral hablamos de Eloísa y Abelardo.

Apologies for the lateness of this Pod Cast! In this episode Jim and Rich cover everything from Aragon! The kick it off with some great listener feedback about semi-automated ride height devices. Then they go over the news of Martins contract issues and the semi bombshell of Toprak signing a one year deal to race a Pramac Yamaha in 2026. Finally they guys cover the racing. The Moto3 Class was a classic with the twist of making sure you picked the right tire. This odd set of conditions resulted in a first time winner Munoz who just barely defeated the new rookie sensation Quiles! The Moto2 race was the best of the weekend and also included a first time winner. Moreira rode through the pack and chased down race leader Oncu in the closing laps. Oncu never quit and kept pushing. On the last lap at the last turn Oncu rode around the outside of Moreira to win the closest Moto2 race ever by 0.003 seconds!! MotoGp was a bit boring as Marc Marquez lead every secession ook pole position and won then sprint and on Sunday lead every lap in dominate fashion to win the main event. Domination like this has not been seen in this class since Marc himself did the same thing a decade ago at the German GP in 2015. This is the domination that we all feared when Marc was chosen to ride the factory Ducati. On the bright side Pecco appears to have found the feeling again on his Ducati and may yet be able to challenge Marc. Stay tuned!

Not quite ‘live' from the MotorLand Aragon Grand Prix Media Centre, Adam, David and Neil bring you their highlight, lowlights, discussion points and (wacky?) theories to emerge from the latest round of 2025 MotoGP.

 Ah, Aragon! They used to shoot westerns here, you know. The wide empty desert was the perfect backdrop for spaghetti western action. Cowboy versus cowboy, gunslingers living dying by the grace of their hair-trigger fingers and lightning-quick reflexes. And maybe the spirit of those films never really went away, because now we've got some old-fashioned drama like rival brothers and the return of a rider who was really fighting some technical difficulties. But was that really all there was to it? Does the tech tell a more complicated story? Or is it all mental?Live from the aftermath of Aragon, it's the Oxley Bom MotoGP Podcast. Cheers!Want more?

The last of Henry VIII's wives, Catherine Parr's story is absolutely fascinating. A daughter of a noble family from the north of England, Catherine was raised by a doting, independent mother who urged her daughters to take a similar approach. Maud Green Parr, Catherine's mother, was a confidant of Queen Catherine of Aragon, and Catherine's younger sister Anne would go on to be a lady in waiting to all six of Henry's wives - including her sister. Catherine was, by all accounts, extremely bright and deeply invested in education, especially languages. Unlike most of his brides, Catherine Parr had been married prior to their relationship. Twice, in fact, and in each case, the marriages presented Catherine with circumstances that shaped her; into a fully fledged Protestant in the first case, and into a devoted step-mother in the second - a circumstance that would be sorely tested by the religious rivalries shaking Henry's England in the aftermath of his break with Rome. But that's a story for the next episode. Listen ad-free at patreon.com/trashyroyalspodcast. To advertise on this podcast, reach out to info@amplitudemediapartners.com.

As Round 8 at Aragon gets set to commence, Jim and Rich look back at a highly eventful set of races 2 weeks ago at Silverstone in the UK. For once, Moto2 dished up the race of the day, but there was plenty of action and incident in the MotoGP and Moto 3 races too. The lads also discuss listener feedback, ongoing contractual disputes at Aprilia, a nasty injury for HRC's Luca Marini and the vexed question of why Silverstone draws in such a small trackside audience.

She discusses the meanings behind historically significant terms and phrases, providing intriguing insights into the letters exchanged between Anne and Henry. Join Natalie and Tracy as they uncover and discuss the layers of history, revealing a complex and spirited Anne Boleyn who may have been more pious and principled than history often portrays.
