I really enjoyed hosting this Alpha Exchange discussion with Ulrike Hoffmann-Burchardi, CIO for the Americas and Global Head of Equities at UBS Global Wealth Management. Ulrike has had a long career in markets, having spent nearly 25 years at Tudor Investment Corporation working across quantitative macro and global tactical asset allocation before joining UBS. We begin with Ulrike's academic background in economics, political science and financial econometrics and the path that ultimately brought her from academia to Tudor. She reflects on the culture created by Paul Tudor Jones and several lessons that stayed with her throughout her career: the importance of respecting trends, sizing positions appropriately, understanding liquidity and recognizing that while markets continually evolve, the human emotions driving them remain remarkably consistent. We then turn to portfolio construction at UBS, where Ulrike and her team combine three distinct lenses: macro, bottom-up fundamentals and structural trends. Within that structural framework, they are focused on three transformational opportunities—artificial intelligence, power and resources, and longevity. We discuss how AI connects all three and why the enormous capital expenditure associated with its development is increasingly becoming a macro factor in its own right. Ulrike walks us through the potential bottlenecks to the AI buildout, from electricity and grid capacity to permitting, turbines and transformers, as well as the possibility that monetization fails to keep pace with investment. We also explore opportunities across the AI value chain, including semiconductors, power, industrials, materials and healthcare. Lastly, we discuss hidden correlations and why portfolios that appear diversified across traditional asset classes may share common underlying exposures. I hope you enjoy this episode of the Alpha Exchange, my conversation with Ulrike Hoffmann-Burchardi.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are back in the United Kingdom—but is their return really about the children, or is something much bigger happening behind the scenes? Tudor Dixon is joined by British journalist and Outspoken host Dan Wootton for an explosive conversation about Harry and Meghan’s reported return to the UK, the state of their marriage, and what could come next for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Wootton argues that Harry and Meghan have been living through an increasingly troubled marriage and explains why their move could mark the beginning of an effective “trial separation,” with Harry focused on life in Britain and Meghan potentially spending significant time back in Montecito. The two also examine what the move could mean for Archie and Lilibet, Harry’s relationship with King Charles, and the possibility of a future custody battle. They also dig into Harry’s fractured relationship with Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales; whether the Royal Family could ever welcome Harry back; Meghan’s future without the monarchy; and why Wootton believes Prince William could take a much tougher approach to Harry and Meghan when he becomes king. Plus, Tudor and Dan revisit the infamous Oprah interview, Harry’s memoir Spare, the brothers’ longtime rivalry, Meghan’s relationship with royal staff, and how Harry went from one of Britain’s most popular royals to one of its most controversial figures. Could Harry and Meghan ultimately divorce? Can Harry repair his relationship with the Royal Family—or have too many lines already been crossed? And could their return to Britain set the stage for the next major royal family showdown? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Greg Jenner is joined in western Europe by historian Dr Serena Dyer and comedian and actor Vic Michaelis to learn all about the hidden history of underwear. For as long as people have been wearing clothes, they have been wearing garments under them – Romans at Hadrian's Wall were sent underpants, and even Ötzi the Iceman was discovered wearing a form of undergarment. But what were people wearing before the invention of underwires and elastic, so essential to our modern conceptions of underwear? This episode traces the history of our underthings in western Europe and the USA from the medieval period, through the Tudor, Regency and Victorian eras, and into the modern day. Moving around the body, it takes in the linen shifts and shirts that were the universal undergarment for much of history, the development of drawers and stockings, and the shockingly recent invention of knickers and briefs. It also tackles stays and corsets, asking whether they were really as painful as film and TV depictions suggest, and looking at the reliability of on-screen underwear in programmes like ‘Bridgerton'. If you're a fan of fashion trends of the past, evolving views on beauty and the body, and debunking historical myths, you'll love our episode on the history of underwear. If you want more historical fashion and beauty trends, check out our episodes on the History of High Heels, Renaissance Beauty and haircare entrepreneur Madam CJ Walker. You're Dead To Me is the comedy podcast that takes history seriously. Every episode, Greg Jenner brings together the best names in history and comedy to learn and laugh about the past.

Election season is heating up, but are the polls telling voters the full story? Tudor Dixon sits down with veteran pollster John McLaughlin, CEO and partner at McLaughlin & Associates and longtime adviser to President Donald Trump, for an inside look at the battle for Congress in the 2026 midterm elections. McLaughlin breaks down the razor-thin Michigan Senate race, why he believes Republicans need to sharpen their message, and how turnout could ultimately determine control of the House and Senate. He also explains why he questions some national polling methodologies and argues that Republicans must take their case directly to voters rather than relying on traditional media. The conversation dives into Mike Rogers and the Michigan Senate race, Abdul El-Sayed and the Democratic Party's progressive wing, Medicare for All, taxes, housing affordability, voter ID and proof of citizenship, as well as Republican proposals that McLaughlin believes could help define a national midterm agenda. Tudor and McLaughlin also examine Democratic primary results in Michigan, Wisconsin and Florida, the growing influence of democratic socialist candidates, concerns surrounding political fundraising and foreign money, and what both parties' strategies could mean for the balance of power in Washington. With the 2026 midterms approaching, McLaughlin says Republicans cannot simply run on President Trump's accomplishments—they need to clearly tell voters what comes next and define the choice facing the country.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Drew Pinsky joins Tudor Dixon for a wide-ranging conversation about the Lindsay Clancy case, postpartum psychosis, psychiatric medications, addiction, marijuana, Adderall, GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, and what he sees as major failures in America’s mental health care system. Dr. Drew breaks down the complicated medical questions surrounding Lindsay Clancy, including her psychiatric treatment, extensive medication history, and the critical difference between postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis. He explains why he believes the case raises serious questions about continuity of care, psychiatric prescribing, and whether patients with severe mental illness are receiving the intensive treatment they actually need. Tudor and Dr. Drew also examine America’s reliance on prescription medications, including benzodiazepines and Adderall, as well as the role childhood trauma can play in ADHD and addiction. Dr. Drew reflects on his experience treating patients during the prescription opioid epidemic and explains how aggressive opioid prescribing helped fuel the addiction crisis that eventually gave way to heroin and fentanyl. The conversation then turns to Hollywood and the struggles of former child stars, including Amanda Bynes, as Dr. Drew discusses the psychological toll childhood acting can have and the relationship between trauma, addiction, mental illness, and substance abuse. Plus, Dr. Drew sounds the alarm about increasingly potent marijuana and its potential connection to psychosis, bipolar illness, and cannabis hyperemesis syndrome. He also shares his concerns about the explosive popularity of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, including potentially serious side effects and what he describes as a troubling new form of body dysmorphia. It’s a candid conversation about mental health, addiction, modern medicine, and whether America has become too quick to reach for a prescription instead of addressing the underlying problem.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if Henry VIII's two most famous wives had put aside their differences and joined forces against the man who destroyed both their lives? Imagine Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn — two women who, in real life, became bitter rivals — forming the most unlikely alliance in Tudor history. Well to answer that question, I am joined by author Jillian Laine, whose novel Henry Tudor Must Die brings Catherine and Anne together in an entirely new version of the Tudor story — one where the wives aren't simply victims of Henry's reign, but the architects of his downfall.  So sharpen your knives, keep your head down, and prepare for a very different take on the story we know so well.

Join me for Taste of TudorCon, a free online preview of this year's conference, on August 29th: https://tudorcon.englandcast.com/tasteoftudorcon2026/ A skilled craftsman in early Tudor London earned sixpence for a day's work. I've been staring at that number for ages, because on its own it tells you nothing. Sixpence out of what? Buys what? Compared to whom?So I went digging, and it turns out if you follow that one coin up and down the Tudor social ladder you end up seeing the whole society. The housemaid on a pound a year. The brewer on ten. The king who spent thirty-six thousand pounds on an eighteen-day party in a field. We get into the coins themselves, which have the best names in the world, including the gold angel that doubled as medicine. We climb from the bottom of the ladder to the top. We work out what sixpence would actually buy you at a market stall. And then we get to 1544, when Henry VIII started secretly putting less silver in the coins, and everybody's wages stopped working.

Investigative journalist and O’Keefe Media Group founder James O’Keefe joins Tudor Dixon to reveal what his undercover investigations uncovered about vulnerabilities in America’s election system. O’Keefe takes Tudor inside his recent investigations in Michigan, Minnesota, Alaska, and California, including allegations involving non-citizen voting, voter ID requirements, absentee ballots, ballot harvesting, and Minnesota’s controversial voter “vouching” system. O’Keefe also discusses his investigation in Alaska involving Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s brother, the calls for his prosecution following his undercover reporting, and why he says his team carefully avoided illegally casting or obtaining ballots while documenting potential weaknesses in election safeguards. The conversation also turns to California, where O’Keefe says his reporting uncovered people paying homeless individuals to forge signatures on petitions and register to vote—an investigation he says ultimately resulted in an FBI arrest. Tudor and O’Keefe discuss the SAVE Act, election integrity, voter ID, censorship, the role of investigative journalism, and why O’Keefe believes exposing election vulnerabilities on camera is more powerful than simply telling Americans they exist.

As America approaches the 25th anniversary of September 11, retired NYPD Detective Sergeant Mike Codella joins Tudor Dixon to share his extraordinary firsthand account of surviving the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. Codella was off duty when the first plane struck, but after realizing America was under attack, he raced to Lower Manhattan and ran into the South Tower to help evacuate people. Moments later, the building began to collapse around him. Codella recalls being thrown by the force of the collapse, waking up surrounded by complete darkness and silence, and eventually finding his way to safety. He also remembers returning home that night to discover his family believed he had died at Ground Zero—and reflects on the remarkable unity, courage, and patriotism Americans showed in the days after 9/11. Tudor and Codella discuss why younger generations must be taught what happened on September 11, the importance of remembering the first responders and ordinary Americans who became heroes, and whether America has forgotten some of the lessons learned after the attacks. They also examine Codella's decades fighting crime in New York City, Rudy Giuliani's approach to policing, the consequences of soft-on-crime policies, and Codella's upcoming book, The Evil That Walked New York, which explores some of the darkest criminal cases and mysteries he encountered during his career.Never forget September 11, 2001—and never stop telling the stories of the people who lived it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today we examine his rule and the many unfortunate people who crossed his path, and ask whether his actions make him England's most evil monarch.To investigate whether Henry VIII truly deserves the title, we're joined by Kate Williams, author of 'Regina: A New History of Women and Power'.Produced by James Hickmann and Mariana Des Forges, and edited by Dougal Patmore.We need your help!

If you're considering your first Rolex, Omega, Tudor, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, or another luxury watch, this conversation may save you from an expensive regret.If you're buying, selling, trading, consigning, sourcing, servicing, or repairing a luxury watch and you'd like a second opinion before making a decision, we're always happy to help.

La impostura acompaña a la humanidad desde sus orígenes. Su secreto no reside tanto en el farsante como en la gran cantidad de gente que necesita creerle. Todo gran engaño se sostiene sobre un público que quiere ver a un rey resucitado, a un príncipe perdido o a un superviviente heroico, un público que prefiere la ilusión antes que admitir su propia ingenuidad. El caso más antiguo documentado se remonta al 522 a.C., cuando el mago Gaumata se hizo pasar por Esmerdis, el hermano asesinado de Cambises II. Gaumata llegó a gobernar el imperio aqueménida hasta que Darío le derrocó. Se encargó además de que la posteridad supiese que había acabado con un impostor grabando la historia en piedra. En la Inglaterra de los Tudor, el flamenco Perkin Warbeck dijo ser Ricardo de York, uno de los príncipes ejecutados en la Torre de Londres. Durante varios años recorrió las cortes europeas antes de acabar ahorcado en 1499. Años más tarde, tras la muerte de Sebastián I de Portugal en la batalla de Alcazarquivir sin que se encontrase su cadáver, surgiría el sebastianismo. Aparecieron varios falsos Sebastianes uno de ellos un pastelero castellano, Gabriel de Espinosa, y el otro un calabrés errante, Marco Túlio Catizzone, que ni hablaba portugués ni se parecía al monarca pero aún así encontró adeptos que le creían. El siglo de las luces no hizo honor a su nombre rindiéndose a los charlatanes más audaces. Un aventurero francés llamado George Psalmanazar engañó a todos en Inglaterra asegurando que provenía de una tribu exótica de la isla de Formosa. El conde de Saint-Germain insinuaba ser inmortal y Giuseppe Balsamo, convertido en conde de Cagliostro, se dedicó a vender elixires y extraños cultos masónicos que tenían mucho público. Aquella élite ilustrada era precisamente la que más deseaba ser embaucada. El siglo XIX trajo fraudes a otra escala. El escocés Gregor MacGregor se inventó un país entero en Centroamérica, Poyais, para el que emitió moneda y títulos de deuda en la City londinense. Mary Baker se transformó en la princesa Caraboo de una isla inexistente. Todos anhelaban exotismo y eso mismo fue lo que obtuvieron. Ya en el siglo XX, un zapatero prusiano llamado Wilhelm Voigt demostró que con un simple uniforme de capitán se podía dar un gran golpe. El austriaco Victor Lustig llegó a vender dos veces la torre Eiffel a unos chatarreros y a timar al mismísimo Al Capone. La ejecución de los miembros de la familia imperial rusa dio a Franziska Schanzkowska, una joven polaca de extracción humilde, la oportunidad de hacerse pasar por la gran duquesa Anastasia. En la posguerra el español Enric Marco se hizo pasar por un superviviente de los campos de concentración y gracias a ello ganó mucha celebridad. En la misma época Ferdinand Waldo Demara fue encadenando oficios, algunos muy delicados como el de cirujano, sin tener un solo título. Lo que une todas estas historias no es tanto el descaro de los farsantes como el deseo colectivo que supieron encarnar. El impostor no inventa esos deseos, se limita a representarlos y luego cada cual proyecta sobre ellos lo que ya lleva dentro. Por eso los recordamos más con simpatía que con rencor porque nos revelan hasta qué punto nos atraen las mentiras reconfortantes.

I just watched Nolan's Odyssey and went down a rabbit hole: did the Tudors even know this story? Turns out, not the way you'd think. For most of the dynasty, England's version of the Trojan War came from a completely different, largely invented medieval tradition, one that literally cut the gods out of the story. The real, translated Homer didn't arrive in English until the dynasty was basically over. In this one: two forged "eyewitness" accounts of the Trojan War, the first book ever printed in English, the Tudors' fake Trojan ancestor Brutus, Cambridge's Greek revival, and why not a single Tudor monarch ever got to read a finished English Homer.

Former CIA intelligence analyst and targeter Sarah Adams joins Tudor Dixon for a warning about foreign influence operations targeting American politics and elections. Adams breaks down what she describes as the growing alliance between Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), Islamist political organizations, and political candidates—and explains why Americans should pay closer attention to the organizations, money, and influence networks operating behind campaigns. Tudor and Sarah examine concerns surrounding Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, the Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR Action, campus organizations, and the role social media influencers can play in amplifying foreign-backed narratives—sometimes without even realizing where the messaging originated. They also explore why Adams believes the threat isn't limited to the political left. Could similar influence operations fracture Republicans and conservatives by pushing voters toward third parties or convincing them to stay home? Plus, Adams reveals a stunning vulnerability inside Washington: congressional staffers aren't universally required to undergo background checks. She explains what she witnessed while working on Capitol Hill and why she believes Congress needs stronger counterintelligence safeguards. It's a wide-ranging conversation about foreign influence, election interference, political extremism, national security, and whether Americans recognize the threat before it becomes too powerful to ignore.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I got on a Zoom call with two Blue Badge guides from Context Travel, and by the end of it I had a list of about a dozen places in London I've never been and now desperately need to see. Sean spent almost 30 years in financial services before deciding life was too short not to spend it obsessing over history and art instead. Caroline taught history at a girls' school and specialized in Edward VI, the Tudor everyone skips past on the way from the six wives to Elizabeth I. We talked about the pieces of Tudor London hiding in plain sight: a tennis court wall tucked behind Buckingham Palace, a portrait of Edward VI you can only see properly through a spy hole, a single rose that's been paid as rent since 1381, and why Henry VIII's waistband tells you basically his entire biography. I've been doing this for over 15 years and I did not know most of this going in. Keep a notebook handy, you're going to end up with a list.

Some of America’s most notorious criminal cases are taking dramatic new turns. Tudor Dixon is joined by criminal defense attorney David Gelman to break down the latest legal developments involving Luigi Mangione, Bryan Kohberger, Alex Murdaugh, and Lindsay Clancy. They examine the intense public fascination surrounding Mangione, his potential legal strategy and sentencing, and what Gelman describes as the “Netflix effect” that can turn accused and convicted killers into cultural figures. They also discuss Kohberger’s effort to withdraw his guilty plea and why Gelman believes his chances of succeeding are extraordinarily slim. Then, Tudor and David examine why Alex Murdaugh is getting another trial, including allegations of improper conduct involving the court clerk and the jury. Finally, they tackle the disturbing Lindsay Clancy case and the complicated questions surrounding postpartum mental health, medication, criminal intent, reasonable doubt, and whether doctors and pharmaceutical companies should face greater scrutiny when medications are alleged to contribute to violent behavior. It’s a wide-ranging look inside the criminal justice system—and the legal battles behind some of the cases captivating America.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Were Democratic attorneys general preparing to wage a legal battle against Donald Trump before voters even went to the polls? On this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor is joined by The Center Square investigative reporter Adam Herbets to discuss documents showing that more than 20 Democratic state attorneys general entered into a common-interest agreement as early as April 2024—months before Donald Trump won the presidential election. The agreement allowed the states to coordinate on what they called “federal accountability projects,” which Herbets says have since resulted in roughly 100 lawsuits against the Trump administration. Herbets explains how the states coordinated their legal strategies, why questions are being raised about taxpayer resources and public-record transparency, and whether these lawsuits are becoming a political and fundraising tool. He also details how states including California and New Jersey allocated additional money toward legal challenges involving the Trump administration. Tudor and Herbets also examine the growing role of money in politics, Gavin Newsom’s fundraising relationships with nonprofits and major corporations, government contracts, and the increasingly blurred line between political influence and public policy. The Tudor Dixon Podcast takes a closer look at the money, political power, and legal battles shaping government—and asks what taxpayers deserve to know about what is happening behind the scenes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A serial sex attacker who had a 'morbid fascination' with sex has been jailed for the rest of his life after he was found guilty of murdering two women and raping a third. 40-year-old Simon Levy killed Carmenza Valencia-Trujillo in March 2025 and Sheryl Wilkins five months later. Earlier that year, he raped a third woman in the same Tottenham car park where Wilkins was later found dead. Levy will never be released but his sentence comes after police and the Crown Prosecution Service apologised over a series of disastrous decisions that left him free to roam the streets. To discuss the implications of this case, Anita Rani is joined by deputy assistant commissioner Helen Millichap, director of the National Centre for Violence Against Women and Girls and Public Protection, and author and journalist Joan Smith.Events of the past are often recounted through facts and dates but how do those legacies play out in the years, decades and generations that follow? Fauzia Musa joins Anita to discuss her debut novel, The Strangling Fig, why her own anxieties around motherhood inspired its inception and how the three generations of women it follows navigate the legacy of Partition.Why are Black American women spending thousands of dollars to fly halfway across the world to access healthcare in South Korea? Why has it become synonymous not only with beauty innovation but comprehensive healthcare? We speak to US journalist Brianna Holt and Meike Schleiff, associate professor at UCL's Global Business School for Health.Lara Maiklem has been appointed - what's believed to be - Britain's first 'mudlark-in-residence' after 20 years of finding lost treasures. Lara Maiklem, 55, says she fell in love with the activity when she moved to Greenwich, south-east London. Since then, she has found thousands of objects, most of which she stores in her guest bedroom as a mini museum. Standouts include a Tudor child's shoes from the late 1500s, a Tudor dagger, Roman game counters, a complete Roman pot and an early 18th-century wine bottle. She joins us in the studio to share how mudlarking has changed her perspective on London - and life.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Simon Richardson

Anne Boleyn is one of the best-known women from the Tudor era. Her family members are less well-known, which is why we're talking about them today. From her Irish granny to her notorious brother and his wife, we're here to talk about The Other Boleyn Family Members and Hever, the home they all shared. Tracy Borman, author of the new novel The House of Boleyn, joins us to discuss all the Boleyn family drama.

What happens when someone who volunteered for a COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial says the shot changed her life within hours? On this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor sits down with Brianne Dressen, co-founder of React19 and a participant in the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial, to discuss her experience with what she describes as a severe and lasting vaccine injury. Dressen recounts developing neurological symptoms shortly after receiving the shot, including burning and tingling, numbness, difficulty walking, sensitivity to light and sound, vision problems, and cognitive issues. She says some symptoms remain with her nearly six years later. She also describes receiving treatment at the National Institutes of Health, saying the intervention produced a significant improvement but that she has continued to require treatment. Tudor and Dressen discuss informed consent during vaccine trials, the treatment of people reporting adverse events, Anthony Fauci and the NIH, pharmaceutical-company accountability, and Dressen's allegations that officials knew more about certain adverse effects than was publicly acknowledged. Dressen also explains why she believes further federal investigation is necessary. It’s a wide-ranging conversation about one woman's experience, unanswered questions from the COVID era, and the continuing debate over transparency, medical treatment, and accountability.

In 1513, Charles Brandon knelt in front of Margaret of Austria, regent of the Netherlands, and lifted the ring right off her finger. Twice. The gossip reached all the way to her father, the Holy Roman Emperor, and for a minute, Henry VIII was actually pushing for his best friend to marry one of the most powerful women in Europe.It never happened. But what if it had? In this episode I dig into the real story behind the ring, why the marriage was never actually going to happen, and what it would have meant for England, the Habsburgs, and the entire Tudor succession, including a very direct line to Lady Jane Grey never existing at all.

This conversation totally rearranged some things in my brain. I sat down with Tracy Borman, Chief Historian at Historic Royal Palaces, to talk about her new novel The House of Boleyn, and it flips the whole family on its head. Thomas Boleyn, the guy we all love to hate as the scheming dad pimping out his daughters? Tracy did the research and found basically none of that. He comes across as actually protective, terrified of what Henry could do to Anne. And Jane Boleyn, who Wolf Hall (and basically everyone else) paints as the ultimate betrayer? Tracy found letters of her BEGGING Henry to spare her husband. We also get into Anne's grandmother Lady Margaret Butler, who Tracy compares to the Maggie Smith character from Downton Abbey (I'm obsessed with this comparison), plus the Duke of Norfolk, who might be one of the most legitimately villainous people in Tudor history, no rehabilitation needed there. And Tracy tells this incredible story about inventing a plot line for the book, and then finding actual historical evidence afterward that proved she'd accidentally landed on the truth. Chills. Tracy also gives her take on whether Anne actually loved Henry (spoiler: she doesn't think so), and where she thinks Anne's heart really was. Huge thanks to Tracy for coming back on the channel; and also a shoutout for her talk at Tudorcon a few years back (tickets for October 23-25 still available, by the way - https://tudorcon.englandcast.com for details!).

A regicide might be the last person you'd think would save a king's palace – but in Oliver Cromwell, Hampton Court found an unlikely admirer.   During his time as Head of State, Cromwell's family filled Hampton Court with music, art and beauty – and even some scandalous statues – as their family home. In doing so, they saved it from the threat of demolition, and ensured its survival until Charles II returned in 1660.  In this episode, join Assistant Curator Minette Butler as she explores Hampton Court through new eyes, looking for glimpses of this intriguing period. What was it like to visit this royal palace without a king? And how does Cromwell fit into the palace's history?  Explore the Tudor gardens that Cromwell would have known on our website.

One of the most famous quotations attributed to Mary of Guise is her alleged reply to Henry VIII's proposal of marriage:"I may be a big woman, but I have a very little neck."It's a wonderful story, cleverly alluding to Anne Boleyn's execution and Henry VIII's reputation. But did Mary of Guise really say those words?In this video, I investigate the evidence by examining contemporary diplomatic correspondence, including the dispatches of the French ambassador Castillon, along with the works of John Knox, John Lesley, George Buchanan, Agnes Strickland, Antonia Fraser, John Guy and other historians.Can this famous quotation be traced to a contemporary source, or has it become accepted simply through repetition?Join me as I follow the evidence and explore one of Tudor history's most intriguing quotation mysteries.If you enjoy evidence-based Tudor history, please like, subscribe and let me know your thoughts in the comments. And if you've come across a contemporary source for the quotation, I'd genuinely love to hear about it.#TudorHistory #HenryVIII #MaryOfGuise #AnneBoleyn #MaryQueenOfScots #TudorEngland #Tudors #BritishHistory #HistoryMystery #HistoryFacts #MedievalHistory #HistoryLovers

Henry VIII is England's most famous king. He is simultaneously the virtuous Renaissance prince gone wrong, the psychopathic, paranoid tyrant, the religious disruptor and the much-married glutton. Overlord: The Life and Reign of Henry VIII (Birlinn, 2026) is a groundbreaking study of Henry's life examines and destroys many of the long-repeated myths about this complex monarch: he was not particularly gluttonous, not particularly prudish, and not particularly messy in his religious changes. Nor did he see himself as simply King of England. Drawing on archival sources from across the British Isles, Dr. Steven Veerapen reveals how Henry fashioned an image of himself as a law-abiding and benevolent emperor who dreamed of uniting England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and swathes of France under Tudor rule. Yet the image was false and the dream a nightmare for his queens, his ministers and many of his subjects. This new portrait shows Henry for what he really was: a self-aggrandising actor who, by fair means and foul – murder plots, marriage negotiations and military ventures – did all he could to realise his imperial fantasy. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Why is socialism suddenly becoming popular again in America—and what are the real consequences if it succeeds? In this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor sits down with Dr. Anne Bradley, professor of economics at the Institute of World Politics and Vice President of Academic Affairs at The Fund for American Studies, to examine the resurgence of democratic socialism and why so many young Americans are embracing it. The conversation explores why "free" government programs have become politically appealing, how envy and economic frustration fuel socialist movements, and why history repeatedly shows socialism leading to economic failure and government control. Tudor and Dr. Bradley also discuss the rise of crony capitalism, corporate welfare, regulatory barriers facing small businesses, and how government favoritism undermines entrepreneurship and opportunity. Drawing from history, economics, and Tudor's own experience running for governor of Michigan, they explain the difference between free-market capitalism and government-controlled economies—and why protecting opportunity matters more than ever.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Host Natalie Grueninger speaks with Dr David Grummitt about the December 1460 events commonly called the Battle of Wakefield. Dr Grummitt argues the episode was a small ambush and murder of Richard, Duke of York and his son rather than a large pitched battle, and explains the primary evidence behind this interpretation. The episode also covers the immediate Lancastrian response, the march to the Palm Sunday battles of 1461, and how later Tudor chroniclers and historians transformed these events into a more dramatic mythology.

What happens when a violent repeat offender is repeatedly released instead of deported? On this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor speaks with Eileen Leahy, whose daughter—a New York emergency room physician—was allegedly assaulted twice by the same undocumented immigrant despite multiple arrests and an existing order of protection. Leahy details her family's years-long fight for justice, alleging that prosecutors declined to pursue charges because of concerns about the suspect's immigration status. The conversation explores sanctuary city policies, ICE enforcement, repeat violent offenders, judicial accountability, and the impact these cases have on healthcare workers and public safety. Tudor and Eileen also discuss high-profile crimes involving undocumented immigrants, the role of immigration enforcement, and the broader national debate over border security, crime, and protecting American communities. If you're following the latest discussions surrounding illegal immigration, sanctuary cities, ICE, public safety, and criminal justice reform, this is an episode you won't want to miss.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Henry VIII didn't break with Rome for faith. He broke with it for property.That's the part most history books leave in the margins. The standard story is that Henry wanted a divorce, Rome said no, and England broke away. But the real prize was never the marriage. It was sitting behind the monastery walls — land, silver, grain, charters, deeds — the largest concentrated wealth in England, waiting for a monarch with the administrative capacity to take it.Henry VII spent twenty-four years building that capacity. Bonds and recognizances that held roughly half the English peerage financially hostage. The Council Learned in the Law. The Chamber finance system. A government that could measure, monitor, and enforce. Then Cromwell arrived at court and recognized what his father-figure Wolsey had been extending — that the machinery pointed at the nobility could be pointed at the Church instead.The Valor Ecclesiasticus of 1535 catalogued every religious house in England. The Court of Augmentations was purpose-built in 1536 to process the seizure. Between 1536 and 1540, roughly £1.3 million in monastic wealth transferred to the Crown — more than Henry VII had left in the entire treasury. Henry VII built the engine. Cromwell found the target. Henry VIII pulled the lever.════════════════════════════

Henry VIII stomped all over the Tudor era, and for a long time people thought he was a great guy. Some people knew he was not, like the six women unlucky enough to marry him. But in a post-Six world, Henry is now seen as the villain of this story. We're joined by Jillian Laine, author of the new novel Henry Tudor Must Die, to explain why Henry VIII was, in fact, The Worst.

This is a throwback from the very first Tudor Summit back in 2017, the little online conference that eventually grew into TudorCon. I'm digging through the archives while I'm traveling in the UK, and I found this one with art historian Roland Hui, and it's just as fascinating now as it was then. Roland walks through the six wives one by one and it's honestly wild how much detective work goes into figuring out who's actually in these paintings. Catherine of Aragon has tiny roses and Ks hidden in her jewelry to show off her new Tudor loyalty. Anne Boleyn's most famous portrait wasn't even painted until Elizabeth's reign, decades after Anne died, so we're not even 100% sure it looks like her. And that whole "Flanders mare" story about Anne of Cleves? Roland explains why that's probably more about Henry's ego than her actual portrait. We also get into how historians use things like jewelry inventories to figure out who's really in a painting (the Catherine Parr one that used to be labeled as Jane Grey is a great example), plus a preview of Roland's research into why Anne Boleyn got saddled with a "witch" reputation that didn't even show up until centuries after she died. Roland Hui is the author of "The Turbulent Crown: The Story of the Tudor Queens" and has written for Renaissance Magazine and Tudor Life Magazine. Learn more about your ad choices.
