Welcome to the History Tea Time Podcast! I'm Lindsay Holiday. For the past three years, I’ve been making weekly videos on my YouTube channel, History tea time with Lindsay Holiday. And now I’m turning my videos into a new podcast for all of my audiofile fans. It’s less like a dull history class and more like a friendly chat about what people were up to in the past. Together we’ll meet remarkable Queens from across the world; explore royal family trees and put the modern royals into historic context; and delve into historic topics like how women of the past gave birth and handled their periods, the worst pandemics every to plague humanity and much more! The first Episode, A history of Royal Incest and Inbreeding will be released June 2nd, 2022. Please join me every Thursday after that when I’ll be revisiting and revamping my most popular YouTube Videos and adding in even more fascinating information for your listening pleasure! I’ll also be releasing a few brand new episodes on the podcast before they hit YouTube. So next time you want to enjoy a steaming hot cup of history, but need to keep your eyes on work, chores or the road, check out History Tea Time on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts or wherever fine podcasts are enjoyed! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/historyteatime/support Learn more about your ad choices.

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.
