    • 11.0 - Britain in 1770 (The Story So Far...)
      Feb 9 2026

      By 1770, Britain is a restless empire—troubled at home, strained abroad, and on the brink of a new era. In this special episode, we trace the leaders and events that shaped British politics over the past fifty years: from Robert Walpole’s "notorious corruption" to Henry Pelham’s steady hand, and the uneasy balance between King George III, Parliament, and this new thing called "Prime Minister". The empire had doubled in size in a generation, but with a spark about to ignite in snowy Boston that will change everything.

      New to Prime Factors? This is the perfect place to start as we begin our journey into the era of Lord North and the American Revolution.

    • 10.2 - Augustus Fitzroy, 3rd Duke of Grafton (Part 2)
      Jan 19 2026

      Britain is in crisis: Rioters in London scream "Wilkes and Liberty!", while the French threaten to take Corsica from the British-backed rebels. The conservative Bedford faction gains ground in Parliament, while Junius savages the administration with his wisdom and wit. Where is Prime Minister Grafton? Has anyone seen our Prime Minister? (He's probably off with his mistress.)

    • 10.1 - Augustus Fitzroy, 3rd Duke of Grafton (Part 1)
      Jan 6 2026

      Descended from an illegitimate son of Charles II, the Grafton clan seemed to embrace the ignominy, leading lives rocked in equal parts by political power and scandal. Augustus Fitzroy led a comfortable life filled with horses, hunting, and... women, but when duty called, could he put aside his family's proclivities to be the leader that Britain desperately needed?

      Thanks to our fantastic podcasting friends who contributed to this episode's "Picture This" segment: John and Rob from Prime Time, Rob from Totalus Rankium, and Kassidy from YouTube. A friend of the show, Adam, also provided some incidental music.

      Also includes a trailer for the Alexander Standard podcast.
