In this episode of the Anglotopia Podcast, Jonathan Thomas is joined by Heather Teysko — host of the Renaissance English History Podcast, founder of TudorCon, and one of the true pioneers of independent history podcasting. Heather started her podcast back in 2009 on a Labor Day weekend whim, with a cheap microphone and no idea how to edit audio, and has since built it into one of the longest-continuously-running independent history podcasts in the world, alongside a book community, online summits, a Tudor planner, and TudorCon — the world's first Tudor history convention, now in its seventh year. Jonathan and Heather swap stories about falling in love with Britain, building history audiences online, resisting the shiny lure of algorithm-chasing, and why genuine passion is the only thing that makes any of this work. They also dig into TudorCon 2026 — taking place October 23rd–25th at the extraordinary Agecroft Hall in Richmond, Virginia, a genuine 15th-century English manor house that was disassembled and shipped to America piece by piece — where Anglotopia is proud to be a sponsor.

Links Renaissance English History Podcast — englandcast.com TudorCon 2026 (October 23–25, Richmond VA) — tudorcon.englandcast.com Agecroft Hall, Richmond Virginia — agecrofthall.org Heather's book — The Tudor Fan Guide (Countryman Press/WW Norton, coming Summer 2027) Churchill Conference 2026 Philadelphia Friends of Anglotopia Takeaways Heather Teysko launched the Renaissance English History Podcast in 2009 — the only Tudor history podcast in existence at the time — and very nearly canceled it in 2013 when she discovered it was getting 40,000 downloads a month without her having posted a new episode in nearly a year. The spark for Heather's Tudor obsession was singing William Byrd's Ave Verum Corpus in a high school choir and realising that Byrd was writing secret Catholic music in Latin while serving Elizabeth I's Protestant court — a teenage existential crisis that never really ended. TudorCon, which began as an online summit and went in-person in 2019, is now expanding significantly for 2026 — moving from a single-track event at Agecroft Hall to a multi-track conference with five classrooms and a reception hall, thanks to a new partnership with Randolph-Macon College in Ashland, Virginia. Agecroft Hall is a genuine 15th-century Lancashire manor house that was purchased, disassembled stone by stone, and shipped to Richmond, Virginia in the 1920s by a wealthy tobacco entrepreneur who wanted to live in an authentic English manor — including the original medieval glass, which had to be transported separately by road to avoid cracking. TudorCon is deliberately designed to sit between an academic conference and a Renaissance fair — costume-friendly, open to non-academics, and built around the idea that passionate enthusiasts with deep knowledge of a specific corner of Tudor history have just as much to contribute as credentialed scholars. TudorCon From Home is a full live-streamed experience with its own host, dedicated talks, special events, and a real community feel — the online attendees even took a group screenshot last year to include in the official TudorCon group photo. Heather lived in England for two years in her mid-20s on a BUNAC visa, spending weekends picking random train destinations and exploring — including accidentally attending the Durham Miners' Parade without knowing what it was. After nearly 16 years treating her Tudor work as a hobby, Heather made a deliberate mental shift 18 months ago to treat it as a business — and has since signed a book deal with Countryman Press (an imprint of WW Norton) for The Tudor Fan Guide, due out in summer 2027. Both Heather and Jonathan agree that chasing algorithms and platform trends is a dead end — the only sustainable strategy is making content you're genuinely passionate about and trusting that your specific audience will find you. Heather is currently deep in a rabbit hole on medieval female mystics — including Julian of Norwich, Margery Kempe, and Elizabeth Barton (the Maid of Kent), the only woman in recorded history to have her head displayed on London Bridge. ⠀ Soundbites "William Byrd was writing Catholic music in Latin about transubstantiation while he was writing Protestant theological services for Elizabeth I. And something about that really spoke to the teenager in me — nobody understands my deep dark soul." — Heather on the moment that sparked a lifelong obsession. "I logged in and I looked at my statistics. And this thing was getting like 40,000 downloads a month. And I was like, what the heck? I guess I'll keep this live." — Heather on almost cancelling the podcast in 2013. "I had a young person's rail card. Every weekend I would show up at a random train station, look at where the trains were headed, and pick a place that sounded interesting. I wound up in Durham Cathedral for the miners' parade without knowing what a miners' parade was." — Heather on her two years living in England. "I wanted to build something that was a mix of an academic conference with the fun of a Renaissance fair — where you could wear costumes, but you're actually focused on the history. And I think it's pretty cool." — Heather on the founding vision of TudorCon. "Tudor nerds tend to be islands of nerdiness surrounded by people who roll their eyes when we want to talk about transubstantiation. Just having a space for all these people to be together in real time was really awesome." — Heather on why the community side of TudorCon matters more than the talks. "It's the friendliest place in the world. People are always nervous about coming if they don't know anybody. Absolutely, you can come by yourself — because it's just the nicest group of people around." — Heather on what first-time TudorCon attendees always say. "I could listen to somebody read train schedules if they were enthusiastic about it and loved it. That genuine passion for something — it's not something you see every day. When you see people who really have it, it's infectious." — Heather on what makes content communities work. "She was starting from nothing — she had nothing. And she was paying me and treating it like a business. And I had this realization: I have way more reach than she does, and I keep treating my stuff like a hobby. So it's going to always stay that way." — Heather on the moment she decided to take her own business seriously. "I used to feel guilty working on my podcast because I was like, I'm just doing my Tudor stuff. But now I'm like, actually, this is a business. Mom's going to work now. Mom needs to not be disturbed because mom is working." — Heather on the mental shift that changed everything. "There's a community dedicated to roundabouts in Wales. There are 8 billion people in the world — surely a couple thousand of them share what you're passionate about. The internet gives you the tools to bring them together." — Heather on why niche communities always find their audience. ⠀ Chapters 00:00 Introduction — Jonathan introduces Heather Teysko and TudorCon, and announces Anglotopia as a 2026 sponsor 02:17 How Tudor History Started — William Byrd, high school choir, and a teenage existential crisis about transubstantiation 04:29 Moving to England at 24 — BUNAC visas, headhunting firms, Barnet, and random train adventures 07:19 Starting the Podcast in 2009 — A Labor Day whim, a cheap microphone, and no idea how to edit 09:38 The Early Podcasting Landscape — Why nobody treated it as a business, and how the show evolved 11:00 Almost Cancelling Everything — 40,000 monthly downloads, a baby, and a very close call 12:27 Moving to Spain and Finding a Business Model — Throwing things at the wall, a failed Tudor radio network, and a slow evolution 13:44 The Online Summit That Led to TudorCon — The Facebook group, the debates, and realising community was the magic sauce 15:02 TudorCon's History — From first in-person 2019 to pandemic pivot to Richmond expansion 15:52 TudorCon 2026 — Multi-track expansion, Randolph-Macon College partnership, and why Jonathan is finally going to Agecroft 16:00 What Is Agecroft Hall? — A real 15th-century Lancashire manor house shipped to Virginia stone by stone 18:37 The TudorCon 2026 Speaker Lineup — Nathan Amin as keynote, John Dee's experiments, everyday Tudor life, and Virginia's local Tudor connections 21:21 What Surprises First-Time Attendees — The friendliness, the inclusivity, and the magic of being around your people 23:05 TudorCon From Home — The live stream, Heather's husband as host, and the group photo story 24:43 A Discount Code for Anglotopia Listeners — Details in the show notes 25:09 The Churchill Conference Comparison — Jonathan's experience and the Philadelphia America 250 connection 26:41 Building a History Community — What Heather has learned about authenticity, passion, and why shiny marketing objects always fail 29:51 On Expanding Too Far — Why Francotopia and New Zealandopia were bad ideas, and why passion can't be replicated 30:31 The New Zealand Girls' Trip — Nine months old, postpartum depression, and one of the worst decisions of Heather's life 31:52 Travelling with Infants — Jonathan's Diamond Jubilee trip with a six-month-old and the Oxford ring road 33:18 Chasing Algorithms vs. Staying Authentic — How both Jonathan and Heather learned the same lesson the hard way 34:25 The Value of Community in the Age of AI — Why human connection and shared passion can't be replicated by technology 34:54 What's Coming on the Renaissance English History Podcast — Female mystics, Julian of Norwich, Elizabeth Barton, and following the rabbit hole 36:50 The Business Shift — From "my Tudor stuff" to a real business, a book deal with WW Norton, and a Tudor app in development 41:21 Two Hobby-Turned-Businesses Compare Notes — Jonathan and Heather on what it feels like when the hard work starts paying off 42:51 Wrap-Up — Where to find Heather, TudorCon details, and a reminder that Anglotopia is a proud 2026 sponsor Video Version

Join The Revd Dr Jeff Lake, Associate Priest of St Bride's, and St Bride's Choir for this week's reflection in words and music. The week's reflection opens with an extract from the Mass Propers for Easter Day by William Byrd which were published as part of his 1607 Gradualia. The propers are a selection of texts from a mass liturgy which vary depending on the season. The Easter Sequence from those propers, Victimae paschali laudes, contrasts rich choral sections with reduced-voice ones which include some dramatic settings of the texts. Our reading from the John's Gospel describes Jesus's first appearance to the disciples after the resurrection and the Thomas's later questioning who was not with them. Jeff's reflection begins with Thomas's doubt and goes on to consider how we recognise the risen Christ when there is no option of the physical connection which Thomas experienced. We close with the hymn "The day thou gavest Lord is ended" whose text was written by John Ellerton and sung to the tune St Clement composed by The Revd Clement Scholefield.

För 500 år sedan översattes nya testamentet till svenska, en händelse som markerar att vi gick från fornsvenska till nusvenska. Men vägen dit hade varit lång. Det språk vi idag kallar svenska växte fram ur urgermanska rötter, slipades av kontakt med latin, lågtyska och andra nordiska tungomål, och formades av kristendomens och statens framväxt.Svenskan har aldrig varit statisk. Den har burit kungars lagar, folkets röster och samtidens idéer. Från ett namn på en dialekt till ett nationellt verktyg för identitet och kommunikation. Viktiga händelser som bibelöversättningar, tryckkonstens utveckling och folkskola har kodifierat svenskan, spritt den och befäst den.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med språkvetaren och författaren professor Tore Janson om det svenska språkets historia — från indoeuropeiska rötter till 1900-talet. Samtalet utgår från Jansons bok Svenskans historia: språkets roll under 800 år.Redan för över 4 000 år sedan talade människor i nuvarande Sverige ett språk med rötter i det indoeuropeiska språkträdet – samma stam som latin, sanskrit och grekiska. Men det skulle dröja årtusenden innan något kunde kallas svenska. Under lång tid talade människor i Skandinavien en form av nordgermanskt språk som saknade både skrift och namn. Runinskrifterna från järnåldern är bland de första språkliga spåren, men ger begränsad inblick i vardagligt språkbruk.På 1000-talet var språket i Svealand och Götaland i stort sett enhetligt. I isländska källor kallades det dansk tunga – ett gemensamt namn för nordbornas språk. Termen svenska användes ännu inte om vare sig folk eller språk.Det verkliga språksprånget skedde med kristendomens införande och framväxten av en svensk statsapparat. Kyrkan förde med sig det latinska alfabetet, utbildning och behovet av skriftliga texter. Under 1200-talet började svenskan skrivas med latinska bokstäver, först i juridiska sammanhang. Den äldsta kända texten är Äldre Västgötalagen från 1220-talet – en lagtext nedtecknad av kyrkans män på folkets språk, men med latinsk skriftteknik.Samtidigt växte Sverige fram som ett mer samlat kungarike, vilket ökade behovet av ett gemensamt språk och reglerat skriftspråk. Under Birger jarls tid på 1200-talet stabiliserades statsmakten, och skriftspråket fick större genomslag i administration och rättskipning.Det är först år 1308 som ordet svenska dyker upp för första gången upp i skrift — i en översättning av en riddarroman beställd av den norska drottningen Eufemia. Ett avgörande belägg finns i en epilog till riddardikten om hertig Fredrik av Normandie, där det står att texten ”är nu gjord till rima... av tysko och i svenska tunga”. Denna benämning markerar en ny språklig medvetenhet – att svenskan var något eget, skilt från danska och tyska.Svenskans status stärktes ytterligare i Magnus Erikssons landslag (1347), som fastslog att rättsliga dokument från kung, lagman och häradshövding skulle skrivas ”a svensko” – på svenska. Därmed blev svenska inte bara ett språk i bruk, utan ett riksspråk med juridisk och politisk funktion.Bildtext: Genesis ur Gustav Vasas bibel från 1541, den första fullständiga bibeln på svenska. Översättningen bidrog starkt till att standardisera skriftspråket och lade grunden för modern svenska under tidigmodern tid. Litteraturbanken.

The Short, Daring Life of Thomas Watson On this day in Tudor history, 26 September 1592, poet and translator Thomas Watson was buried at St Bartholomew-the-Less. You may not know his name, but in Elizabethan circles he was the rule-bender who wrote 18-line “sonnets”, carried letters for Sir Francis Walsingham, supplied lyrics for William Byrd, and once landed in prison after stepping between Christopher Marlowe and a blade. I'm Claire Ridgway, historian and author. In this episode you'll discover: Hekatompathia (1582): the 100-poem love sequence with 18-line “sonnets” Watson the Latinist: Petrarch, Sophocles' Antigone, Amyntas & Amintae gaudia Music & verse: his words for Byrd and Englishings of Italian madrigals The 1589 brawl with Marlowe & William Bradley: wound, death, and a self-defence pardon Final years, plague-time death, and The Tears of Fancie (1593) Where to start reading: dip into Hekatompathia for the form-breaking love poems, then try The Tears of Fancie to hear his later English voice.

Simeon England is a blacksmith, traditional flintlock hunter, and living historian portraying the 18th-century frontiersmen, scouts and longhunters of Kentucky. We start this living history episode about the daily lives of the colonial longhunters [1760s-1770s] who set out from Virginia & North Carolina for deer skins & furs in the wilds of Kentucky, with readings of first-hand accounts about beavers and salt licks. From their hunting methods to their frontier camps we discuss topics such as: tomahawks; boiling salt; hide work; backcountry blacksmithing; traps; horses; dogs; wolves; a slippery elm cure for peeling feet; deer & bear hunting; and buffalo traces. There's learning from books & then there's learning from doing, as Simeon shares some lessons learned from hunting with period gear & flintlock rifles. We hear of Simon Kenton's harrowing experiences running the gauntlet while captured by natives and conclude on a sort of reverence for the craftsman's raw, natural materials [that perhaps we have lost in our age of fast & cheap mass manufacturing]. Readings from The History of the Dividing Line Betwixt Virginia and North Carolina by William Byrd and by A Tour of the United States of America by JFD Smyth.Check out Simeon England's blacksmithing at SimeonEngland.com.

SynopsisIt's likely you'll hear a good deal of American music today — and rightly so — but we're taking a minute or two to acknowledge a special British composer's anniversary, as today's date marks the anniversary of the passing of William Byrd, one of England's greatest composers, who produced both sacred and secular works that are still regularly performed today on both sides of the Atlantic. William Byrd was born in London around 1542 — we don't know exactly when — and died on July 4, 1623, at the age of some 80 years — a remarkably long lifespan for that time. He was also a remarkably prolific composer, a master of intricate choral counterpoint and virtuosic keyboard pieces. He was the first Englishman to write madrigals in the Italian fashion, but his chief significance lies in his many sacred works. Byrd lived during the tumultuous period of the English Reformation, and produced works for both the Roman Catholic Church and England's new Anglican service. Queen Elizabeth I was a great admirer of his music, so much so that she overlooked the fact that Byrd remained an unashamed Roman Catholic in Protestant England, and even granted him a royal patent related to publishing music.Music Played in Today's ProgramWilliam Byrd (c. 1540-1623): Sanctus, from Mass for Five Voices; The Cardinall's Musick; Andrew Carwood; Gaudeamus CD 206

The other day I received a press release about an intriguing album of keyboard music by 16th- and early 17th-century composers, three Englishman and a Dutchman, played on the modern piano by Mishka Rushdie Momen, one of this country's most gifted and intellectually curious young concert pianists. It's called Reformation, and before I'd heard a note of the music – which is performed with thrilling exuberance and subtlety – I knew I wanted to interview Ms Rushdie Momen.  That's because Hyperion had included with the press release a strikingly perceptive essay by the pianist putting this ostensibly secular keyboard music in the context of what she rightly calls the ‘vandalism' of the English Reformation, shockingly illustrated by the demolition of the great shrine of Walsingham. At the same time, she recognises the unnerving pressures facing both Catholic and Protestant composers in an era of bewildering and violent cultural upheaval – but also one in which we can glimpse  elements of toleration and compromise.  Here's my Holy Smoke interview with Mishka Rushdie Momen, which begins with a track from her album: a little galliard called La Volta, danced at Elizabeth I's court even though the Queen knew that its composer, William Byrd, had remained faithful to the Catholic Church.

SynopsisWe tend to think our time has had a monopoly on bitter religious conflicts, but on today's date in 1572, which happened to be St. Bartholomew's Day, the Catholic queen dowager of France, Catherine de Medici, and her son, King Charles IX, decided that the best way to rid their kingdom of troublesome Protestants would be simply to kill them off. A few days earlier, Catholic and Protestant nobles from across France had come to Paris to attend a noble wedding which, ironically, was intended to bring the rival religious factions closer together. Things quickly turned ugly, and on the 24th of August the infamous “Massacre of St. Bartholomew” began and quickly spread across the entire country. Among those who perished was a French Protestant composer named Claude Goudimel, who was killed when the massacre reached Lyons.Fortunately for posterity, not all Reformation era rulers were so bloodthirsty. The English Catholic composer Thomas Tallis managed to keep his head through the reigns of alternating Catholic and Protestant monarchs, and the Protestant Queen Elizabeth the First admired and supported the music of William Byrd, despite his openly Catholic sympathies.Music Played in Today's ProgramClaude Goudimel (1510 – 1572) Comfort, comfort Ye my people Cathedral Singers; Richard Proulx, conductor.
