This is the Tudors Dynasty Podcast.

And now, Rebecca Larson.

I'm your host, Rebecca Larson.

Welcome to the show.

With this podcast, I share a variety of stories from the most well-known dynasty of them all,

The Tudors, from simple stories about the people

of the time to the drama that was the reign of Henry the 8th, and of course, politics.
