This week we are back for episode 2 in our 3-part Mary I of England series. But for today, she is simply ✨️ the LADY Mary ✨️
👑 So, Mary`s dad (Henry VIII) has declared himself the head of the church in England, which Mary has feelings about...
👑 Meanwhile Mary`s new diplomatic bestie, Eustace Chapuys, gives Mary some great advice to avoid the fate of some who were not so lucky as to be the king`s daughter
👑 And while we won`t dive tooooo deep into the lives of all her step mom`s we do touch on the revolving door and the "divorced, beheaded, died" of it all.
👑 We also pour one out for Margaret Pole again. She did not deserve that and it bears repeating.
👑 BUT! Ding-dong the king is dead and we follow Mary as she navigates life as a Catholic under the rule of her VERY protestant baby brother.
Check it out wherever you get your podcasts! xoxo cheers, y`all
Henry VIII would never threaten his daughter himself but he would definitely send a group of dudes to do it for him. From our Mary I part 2 coming out tomorrow! (On Patreon now)
If we don`t laugh we`ll cry (tho we`ve done a lot of both lately) and every day this administration makes some truly batshit history.
Long time listeners know Queen Bailey aka our honorary third host. Bailey has been there through rebranding, advising on merch, crazy COVID AMA`s and has made more than a few appearances over the last 9 years.
And just like her mamma, she always made her opinions known.
It`s with a heavy heart that we let everyone know that this diva was laid to rest last week. While we`re still very much mourning the loss of the sweetest icon there ever was, we can also look back at all the belly rubs and belly laughs and know that she had an amazing life. (This Gemini queen celebrated 15 years in June!)
So while theres certainly a corgipoo shaped hole in my heart, I`m so grateful for the cuddles, companionship and the love she brought to the life of everyone she met
Rest easy, queen 👑🐾
PRINCESS Mary, thank you. 👑👸🏼
New episode is out tomorrow!
Cheers!
