The Twelfth - The Rise of English Protestantism (Part 1)
from Shite Talk: An Irish History Podcast · host HeadStuff Podcasts
For the first episode of season 4 we tried to cover about 200 years of history to make up for lost time. In an attempt to understand the orange order's celebration of the glorious 12th of July we talked about how Henry VIII first turned England towards protestantism, England's subsequent weird relationship with Catholicism and the rise of Catholic James II and his friend Dick Talbot. Also some shite about the time Christopher Columbus visited Galway. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
