Ep. 7 Peace-out Princes, the Seasonally Weird, and Necrophilia for NO Reason

CW: death, non-consensual sexual activity

(Although as usual we are a light-hearted podcast please note this week's episode may contain some upsetting themes)

Hazel guides Rachel through the ‘Undo Your Door’, a late medieval Romance simply stuffed with all manner of twists and turns, leading them to wonder: is embalming a practical skill?

Then Rachel discusses one of history's most famous romantic gestures: the abdication of King Edward VIII, a sacrifice made in the name of love for an - *gasp* - American!

It gets icky, it gets weird, it's history!
