Steven Sabel talks the Oxfordian Shakespeare case, and resources for further investigation.
Steven Sabel is the host of the terrific Oxfordian-themed Shakespeare podcast Don’t Quill the Messenger.

S2E7 Correction!
At the end of episode 7, I point out that the bodies of Anastasia and Alexei were buried at a different site from the rest of the family. https://apnews.com/article/ca1c01d799f90b0bd45340dbf1edb38e The consensus now is that the two bodies were those of Alexie and Maria.
