About this listen

He betrayed a saint, tortured a rebel, and walked away from every regime he served… richer than ever. In this episode, we pull back the velvet curtain on Sir Richard Rich arguably the most treacherous figure of the Tudor court. From perjuring himself to condemn Thomas More, to racking Anne Askew with his own hands, Rich’s legacy is stained with ambition and blood. Was he a master survivor or a man with no soul? Join me as we trace the rise, reign, and ruthless deals of the Crown’s most infamous turncoat. You’ll never see Tudor politics the same way again.
