Bad Girls of History Podcast
@badgirlspod.bsky.social
A podcast celebrating and defending history's unruly women! Host Scarlett debunks myths about a different infamous woman each season. Season 1 is all about Anne Boleyn, and you can listen now wherever you get your podcasts!
I'm leaning towards switching from Lucrezia Borgia for season 2 of the podcast to Elizabeth Woodville, Henry VIII's grandmother and a rumoured witch. I think she might be more interesting and I'm a little more drawn to her story, though she maybe wasn't quite as maligned as Lucrezia.

TIL the King of England is still not allowed to attend funerals: www.instyle.com/king-charles...
The article doesn't mention why, though (how do you not ask?) The reason is because nobody is supposed to imagine the death of the king – it's treason! Maybe they're too embarrassed to give the reason?

Cringing at so many people thinking Wolf Hall is an accurate portrayal of Anne Boleyn. I read the first 2 books, and NO it isn't! Enjoy what you want – hey, I love The Tudors – but you might like the real story too! Season 1 of Bad Girls is a deep dive on it! Spoiler, Cromwell is NOT the good guy.

The problem with this article is that the media hasn't been very empathetic here. This isn't a case of "white man kills family" and the photo is him jet skiing. The media has actually been trying pretty hard to shame everyone who is being empathetic to him.
The empathy is coming from social media.

The Madison, Wisconsin school shooter was a radfem Columbine-worshipper who followed "radfem Hitler". Garrison Davis dug into her online presence and wrote this to explain what the hell all that means and why the right wants us to think she was transgender.

Update on the season finale: I'm now on antibiotics for a sinus and double ear infection, which I started Sunday! Recording will have to wait until I don't sound like shit, which will hopefully be soon. My left eardrum perforated, but otherwise starting to feel better, so fingers crossed it's soon!

Hey everyone, just a heads-up that the season 1 finale of Bad Girls will be up next week. As I've said, I was spending a lot of time and energy on producing a big burlesque show last week, and I needed a few days to recover. Episode 6 will be up next Wednesday at the latest!

The trial took place at Guildhall, London of #ThomasCulpeper & #FrancisDereham
Unsurprisingly both were found guilty of treason & condemned to death
Their fate would only mean one thing for the teenage #KatherineHoward

Hello, this might fit!
what's a good podcast that's a basically a calm good detailed essay/lecture, something like Hardcore History, not quite as bouncy as Ologies, longer than Noble Blood, ideally one voice/narrator? subject matter doesn't matter as long as it's good but i am in a history/folklore/anthropology mood

Hello, this might fit!
Episode 4 is now up, wherever you listen! This week I'm talking about Anne and Henry's marriage (part 1), the birth of Elizabeth, the Act of Succession, and both the bad-sex-ruined-everything and good-sex-ruined-everything myths.

CITIZENS ARE ONCE AGAIN ADVISED TO KINDLY REFRAIN FROM SAYING IMPROBABLE AND HORRIBLE MUSINGS WITHIN EARSHOT OF THE CURSED MONKEY PAW PLEASE AND THANK YOU
President-elect Donald Trump has mused more than once that he might like to run for re-election again in 2028 and seek a third term. The Constitution's 22nd Amendment does not allow it. Here’s why. nyti.ms/48YhdBV
