Everyone knowns Henry VIII’s three surviving legitimate children, Queen Mary I, Queen Elizabeth I and King Edward VI. Their sibling rivalries and brief, bloody and brilliant reigns are among the most famous in history. But these three illustrious monarchs were not King Henry’s only children. He had a legitimate son with his first wife, Catherine of Aragon whose tragic death changed the course of history, an acknowledged illegitimate son whom he considered making a king and as many as 6 other children with his mistresses. They included a pirate con-artist, Queen Elizabeth I’s closest friend, William Shakespeare’s patron and a playwright. Here are their stories...

Every Tuesday, Lindsay Holiday pours a fresh cup and settles in to share the fascinating, often overlooked tales from our past. History Tea Time is built on the idea that history is best served with a generous helping of personality and a focus on the compelling narratives that textbooks tend to skip. Lindsay’s approach feels like a conversation with a knowledgeable friend who has a real knack for digging up the juiciest details. While you’ll often find episodes delving into the lives of queens and royalty from across the globe, there’s a consistent spotlight on women’s history, bringing forward the stories of figures who shaped the world from behind the throne or beyond the traditional spotlight. Listening to this podcast feels like uncovering a secret side of the past, one where the human drama, ambitions, and scandals are given center stage. Each episode is a deep dive into a specific story, told with clarity and a genuine enthusiasm that makes even the most complex historical moments accessible and utterly engaging. If you’ve ever wanted the real, unvarnished, and truly interesting stories behind the names and dates, this is your weekly invitation to listen in.
