0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the Renaissance English History Podcast, a part of the Agora Podcast Network.
0:14.7	I'm your host Heather Tesco and I'm a storyteller who makes history accessible because I believe it's a pathway to understanding
0:21.2	who we are, our place in the universe, and being more deeply in touch with our own humanity.
0:26.8	This is episode 116 and it's on timekeeping in medieval and Tudor England.
0:32.4	But first, I have to tell you about my very important announcement on TudorCon.
0:39.9	Yes, you heard that right. I'm organizing and hosting the world's first ever TudorCon in October of 2019. So that means just about
