Wonderful new(to me, at least)details LucyWalters

For decades, I
have looked for facts regarding the infamous black box. Charles and Lucy's love story has always been of interest to me and I enjoyed this podcast tremendously. Thank you for your research and attention to detail.

An enjoyable podcast, despite it’s grim theme.

This podcast has insights and stories about famous historical figures. Some of them are well known and some are less known, but all of them are interesting!

Noble Blood SUPERFAN!!!

I have to admit that when I started listening to this podcast about a year ago, it was an accident. I simply searched up a good history podcast to listen to every night on my Alexa device. And ever since then, I have been hooked on it. I absolutely adore Dana’s perspective and breakdown of significant moments in history. Her voice is also easy to follow and listen too. I love how she calls out past ways of thinking. I know so much more about extraordinary stories throughout the centuries. Dana and the rest of the Noble Blood team thank you for this gem!
