Charles Spencer: Abuse In British Boarding School?
Charles Edward Maurice Spencer, 9th Earl Spencer, joins us for a conversation that blends history, legacy, and the power of storytelling.
From his experiences as a historian and author to his reflections on family, heritage, and duty, Lord Spencer opens up about the moments that have defined his life. This episode is a journey through centuries of history and personal insight — offering wisdom on leadership, legacy, and the lessons we carry forward.
He and Shawn French then pull back the curtain on a dark chapter of British history — the abuse that occurred within elite boarding schools. In this candid and deeply personal conversation, Lord Spencer shares his own experiences, the lasting impact such environments can have, and why speaking out matters now more than ever.
We explore:
-His first-hand account of life in a British boarding school
-The systemic culture that allowed abuse to persist for decades
-How trauma shapes — and sometimes strengthens — the course of a life
-The responsibility of truth-telling in healing and reform
-Why history must record not just triumphs, but the wrongs that demand justice
This is more than a conversation about the past — it’s a call to protect the future. Lord Spencer’s story is a testament to the power of breaking silence, confronting uncomfortable truths, and ensuring that history doesn’t repeat itself.
Whether you’re a history buff, a lover of great stories, or someone exploring the meaning of legacy in your own life, this conversation will inspire and challenge you to think bigger about your role in the ongoing story.
