This episode was originally released on Patreon in the spring.  Due to a rethink of our Patreon schedule, we are now sending this out to everyone.

The Tudors saw the human body in a very different way to how we see it today.  Discover why men are hairier than women, why women can't produce sperm and why Indian people never go anywhere.

Bernard André and the Mythologising of the Tudors
