  • 140. Arthurian Legends with Dr. Alicia King Anderson, Ph.D.
    We are taking a very trashy tour back in time this week discussing the Arthurian legends with our resident mythology expert Dr. Alicia King Anderson. Alicia dives into all the classic stories, including the choosing of King Arthur, the magical man Merlin, the love-angst of Guinevere and Lancelot, the trickery of Morgan le Fay, and so much more!

  • 139. Saint Olga of Kyiv
    Over a millennium ago, Norsemen loaded up their boats and moved south toward the heart of Europe, traversing its abundant rivers to raid, trade, and conquer. One of these conquests was the city of Kyiv, which these Rus' invaders ('Swedes,' in the local long-ago parlance, Stacie thinks, but also 'men who row') made the seat of the first Eastern Slavic State, way before Moscow was a thing, the Kyivan Rus. The Kyivan Rus's second ruler, Igor I, took a wife at some point during his long reign, and upon his murder, she took both his crown and his vengeance on those who had wronged them both, and their kingdom. In a notably bloodthirsty series of events, Olga of Kyiv murdered the offending peoples' diplomats, envoys, citizens, and laid siege to the capitol of the Drevlians, ultimately destroying the city entirely. But her story wasn't all revenge; she was an able ruler and regent to her son, establishing the first vestiges of modern governance in the region. After his age of majority, Olga continued to govern the city of Kyiv during his many military expeditions abroad. Olga, perhaps thinking better of some of the aftermath of Igor's death, later converted from Paganism to become a devout Christian, building churches and, through her grandson, ushering in the permanent Christianization of the Kyivan Rus.

  • 137. Wallis, Duchess of Windsor | Doing Time in the Bahamas and Post War Days
    The Duke and Duchess should be in their long-awaited wedded bliss period, but King George VI is going to take his brother David up on that past offer to be of assistance, and off the newlyweds go to the Bahamas. The Duke will have a pretty easy job which he won’t do, but Wallis will dazzle.

  • 136. Wallis, Duchess of Windsor | Creatures of International Curiosity
    Married life begins for Wallis and David, and although it is a time of decorating homes and settling into domestic bliss for the couple, there are troubled times brewing. David and Wallis take a trip to Germany they will come to regret in short order. Not only is the world about to enter a war, but David is stubbornly holding onto his own pride and pettiness, so naturally more Windsor family drama included.
