Summary
As this podcast continues evolving, I decided to do my first themed season. Queens! We'll learn about a marvelous collection of queens from various guests. In this episode, we look at the third wife of Henry VIII and mother of King Edward VI - Jane Seymour.
While you may think you already know everything you need to know about Jane, I'd like to encourage you to listen to my latest interview with the fantastic Dr. Elizabeth Norton.

| 0:45.2 | Of all of Henry the 8th's queens, I believe Jane Seymour is the one that we know the least about. |
| 0:51.8 | While her tenure as queen was longer than the six months that Anne of Cleaves had, |
