Tudors: Blood on the Scaffold opens with the creak of a scaffold plank and the low murmur of a crowd that gathered before dawn to watch someone die. That sound is where every episode of this Tudors series begins.

This is a narrated history podcast with no host on screen, no studio banter—just the reconstructed final hours of real men and women condemned under the Tudor crown. Each installment tells one complete Tudors story: the letter that begged for help and betrayed a conspiracy, the list shoved through a chapter that cost its author his head, the empty cart that turned ordinary preachers into martyrs overnight. You get names, dates, trial transcripts, and the small human details most history books leave out—the last meal, the final prayer, the executioner who missed his first swing.

Across the series you'll move through the reigns of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, from the racks inside the Tower to the block outside its walls. Some episodes trace treason plots unraveling under torture; others follow clerks, teachers, and country gentlemen whose death sentence came down over a single careless word or a stolen piece of parchment. This is Tudors history built from executions, not textbooks—the condemned speaking their last recorded lines, the Tudors' final hours rebuilt minute by minute until the blade falls.

New episodes arrive weekly, each one self-contained, each one ending the same way every true story about the Tudors does. Subscribe now if you want the Tudors the way they actually felt: intimate, brutal, and never quite finished until the axe comes down.Copyright OBOMEDIA ENTERTAINMENT Fantascienza

  • The Yingkou freeze on November 16th stranded Doihara's emperor and wrecked Manchukuo

    The Yingkou freeze on November 16th stranded Doihara's emperor and wrecked Manchukuo
    Oct 20 2026
    A frozen harbor on Nov 16, 1931 traps a deposed emperor unless Kenji Doihara moves him-will Manchukuo survive forty-three days?

    The Yingkou freeze on November 16th stranded Doihara's emperor and wrecked Manchukuo

    In this episode, we follow the steps that turned a Japanese officer into the man who tried to build a puppet state in Manchuria. It traces Doihara’s linguistic and human intelligence work, the networks he constructed, and the race against the ice - could he move a former emperor before Yingkou froze?

    Person: Kenji Doihara
    Event: Yingkou port freeze on November 16, 1931
    Period: 1931 - the forty-three days before the ice sealed the exit
    Location: Mukden, Manchuria and the port of Yingkou
    Role: Head of the tokumu kikan and provisional mayor of Mukden

    - He spent nearly two decades learning Mandarin and regional dialects to read people across cultural lines.
    - He built an intelligence network using White Russian émigrés and women in brothels and opium dens, paid with opium.
    - After the Mukden Incident he was appointed provisional mayor of Mukden and moved to secure cooperation from Northeastern Army generals.
    - He had exactly forty-three days to move a former emperor across enemy-watched territory before the port of Yingkou froze.
    - His method relied on offering what a man wanted most and waiting to see whether the man would keep his word.

  • A five‑inch‑too‑long rope cut the UN envoy's decade‑long immunity

    A five‑inch‑too‑long rope cut the UN envoy's decade‑long immunity
    Oct 19 2026
    A UN envoy in a Baghdad execution chamber faces a moment that will test power. How do you fall from that high?

    A five‑inch‑too‑long rope cut the UN envoy's decade‑long immunity

    In this episode, we follow the contradiction of a man who represented Iraq at the United Nations in Geneva while once running the intelligence service that erased a town. The story traces his rise through the Baath Party, the mechanisms of the Mukhabarat, and the trial that brings those years back into a Baghdad courtroom - but what happens next is the question.

    Person: Barzan Ibrahim al‑Hassan al‑Tikriti
    Date: January 15, 2007 / Trial start October 19, 2005
    Location: Baghdad; Geneva
    Event: Dujail operation and later trial
    Institution: United Nations Human Rights Committee

    - At 3:05 AM on January 15, 2007, a rope in a Baghdad execution chamber was five inches too long.
    - Barzan was born in Tikrit in 1951, rose through the Baath Party, and by 17 participated in the 1968 coup.
    - He ran the Mukhabarat in the 1970s-1980s, overseeing detention, torture methods including flogging with electrical cables, and executions.
    - In 1982 the Dujail operation led to the documented execution of more than 140 men and mass internments; Barzan ran the intelligence apparatus that processed detainees.
    - In 1989 he was appointed Iraq’s representative to the UN in Geneva and spent about a decade on the Human Rights Committee while family wealth and Swiss accounts tied to the al‑Tikriti network were identified.

  • The speech in Rangpur that drove students into Al‑Badr and toppled his career

    The speech in Rangpur that drove students into Al‑Badr and toppled his career
    Oct 18 2026
    A rising Islamist student in Rangpur urges classmates to join Al-Badr-what chain of choices could topple a minister decades later?

    The speech in Rangpur that drove students into Al‑Badr and toppled his career

    In this episode, we trace the documented record of Mojaheed Ahsan Mohammad Mojaheed’s rise from a teenage organizer in Faridpur to a national political figure accused of commanding wartime atrocities. We follow the decisions, speeches and organizational moves that prosecutors tied to the disappearance of Bengali intellectuals - and ask how a single call to students became central to a decades‑long legal reckoning.

    Person: Mojaheed Ahsan Mohammad Mojaheed
    Date: 17 October 1971 (Rangpur speech); 22 November 2015 (execution)
    Location: Rangpur (speech); Dhaka Central Jail (hanging)
    Organization: Islami Chhatra Sangha / Al‑Badr / Bangladesh Jamaat‑e‑Islami
    Event: 1971 abductions of professors, journalists, doctors, and artists

    - In 1968 Mojaheed, aged 20, ran the Faridpur district branch of the Islami Chhatra Sangha and proved effective at recruitment and mobilization.
    - By 1970 he led the Dhaka district branch and by August-September 1970 became Secretary of the East Pakistan Islami Chhatra Sangha.
    - The prosecution says he was elected president of the East Pakistan Islami Chhatra Sangha and assumed command of Al‑Badr in October 1971, replacing Motiur Rahman Nizami.
    - On 17 October 1971 Mojaheed delivered a speech in Rangpur urging students to join Al‑Badr; the tribunal treated that speech as documented fact.
    - In December 1971, as Pakistani forces surrendered, members of Al‑Badr moved through Dhaka and surrounding districts abducting intellectuals - a pattern the tribunal linked back to organizational commands.
