| 0:00.0 | Hi, friend. Welcome to this supplemental chat. So this is a highlight reel of a recent chat that we had with Matt Lewis. Matt is a medieval historian. He has a number of very cool podcasts through the history hit network. One's called Gone Medieval. Another one is looking at the |
| 0:23.5 | history behind the Assassin's Creed video games, which my husband actually plays. So I am familiar |
| 0:29.0 | with the Assassin's Creed games. My husband and my daughter actually both enjoy them. I like the |
| 0:35.4 | part where you climb up to the very high tower and you do the |
| 0:38.0 | little jump thing into the hay cart. Anyway, he would always call me. My husband would always call |
| 0:43.7 | me when he was going to do a jump because he'd be like, do you want to watch? And anyway, |
| 0:47.5 | beside the point. So Matt Lewis came and did a chat for those of us who are in the Tudor Top 50 year-long program that I'm doing. |

| 1:18.0 | about Henry's victory at Bosworth. And then this month, we chatted with Matt Lewis about the |
| 1:25.6 | pretenders and some of the early rebellions against Henry Tudor because this |
| 1:31.1 | month a lot of the videos were about Perkin Warbeck, Lambert Simmel, all of those people and |
| 1:36.4 | those early challenges to the early Tudor reign. So Matt came and dropped by and this is a highlight reel of that discussion. |
| 1:46.2 | If you would like to be part of these events live, you can still join in for sure. |
| 1:51.5 | We're only two months into it. |
| 1:53.7 | So there's still plenty of time, plenty of year left to hop on. |
| 1:57.3 | You can just go to Englandcast.com slash Tudor Top 50 to learn more. I hope you enjoy this |
| 2:04.5 | discussion, these highlights of Matthews talk. I have long followed him. He actually spoke at a |
| 2:09.6 | Tudor Summit. I did, gosh, years ago. I think it was 2017, 2018, about some of his theories around |
| 2:17.0 | the princes in the tower. He has a bit of a |
