About this listen

Step back into the dawn of one of history’s most infamous reigns. In this episode, we explore the early years of Henry VIII—not the tyrant history often remembers, but the young, chivalric prince who inherited a fragile throne and set out to redefine kingship. From his education steeped in humanism to his first tournaments, marriage to Catherine of Aragon, and the promise of a golden age, we uncover the hopes, ideals, and ambitions that shaped the young king. This is Henry before the shadows—full of energy, splendor, and the weight of destiny.
