In this episode, step into the glittering, decadent world of Oscar Wilde—playwright, poet, and provocateur. The episode is a spirited romp through the life and legacy of one of history’s most flamboyant and fearless figures. From the velvet salons of Victorian London to the scandalous trials that shocked a nation, we unravel Wilde’s brilliance, barbs, and heartbreaks. Join us as we toast to the Anglo-Irish king of one-liners and dive deep into the triumphs and tragedies behind the legend.
