Everyone has a dream. But sometimes there’s a gap between where we are and where we want to be. True, there are some people who can bridge that gap easily, on their own, but all of us need a little help at some point. A little boost. An accountability partner. A Snooze Squad. In each episode, the Snooze Squad will strategize an action plan for people to face their fears.

Imagine being remembered not just as a bishop, diplomat, and court insider… but also as the student who annoyed a future martyr with your recorder practice!
That was Thomas Thirlby, a man whose life saw the reigns of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Lady Jane Grey, Mary I, and Elizabeth I. He supported Henry VIII’s marriage to Anne Boleyn, helped suppress the Pilgrimage of Grace, became the very first Bishop of Westminster, rose high under Mary I as Bishop of Ely, and yet ended his life under house arrest in Elizabeth’s reign.
In this video, I explore:
- Thirlby’s rise under Cromwell and Cranmer - His role in diplomacy and religious change
- Why he had to degrade his old friend Thomas Cranmer before his execution
- How his Catholic faith cost him dearly under Elizabeth I
- And of course, that quirky Cambridge anecdote about annoying reformer Thomas Bilney with his recorder playing!
