Summary

Way back in 2009 I did an episode on Cardinal Wolsey. I thought it was time to revisit him, and the timing with a new biography was perfect! This is the first part with the second coming next week.

Hey Kitty, time to eat your profits. Good kitty, look how fat you've gotten. That's the sound of some

workplace pension providers paying their shareholders instead of you. At people's pension,

Press, who sent me an advanced copy of the new book on Cardinal Woolsey by Phil Roberts. It's the first of

to the book in the show notes at Englandcast.com slash Woolsey. Before we get started, though,

TudorCon. Unbelievably, you guys, time flies so fast. We are only 10 and a half months away from TudorCon
