Episode 15: Versailles | Historical Trash

We’re back from hiatus! Melissa discusses the tea traditions of Turkey, and both of us break down UK-sourced sweets and biscuits. We also debate the merits of historical trash like Versailles – a beautiful show that is nonetheless miscast and wildly silly. Sarah’s back on her Shetland BS, but next week we’ll be talking about Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s brilliant Fleabag.

You can listen on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, and Podbean!

If you’re super into Versailles (the real one!) we recommend the Kate Winslet/Alan Rickman/Stanley Tucci flick A Little Chaos. If you’re a reader, try Versailles: Biography of a Palace by Tony Spawforth or The Gardener of Versailles: My Life in the World’s Grandest Garden by Alain Baraton.
