Elizabeth Taylor part 3

A mysterious mansion, a dead wife, a deeply insecure narrator, and a housekeeper who is absolutely NOT helping. Welcome to Rebecca, queens! In this special main-feed episode, Katy kicks off her Katy Reads the Classics So You Don't Have To series on Daphne du Maurier's 1938 gothic classic, Rebecca. We start with a little biography of du Maurier, including the real-life mansion that inspired Manderley, before diving into the first three chapters. We're meeting our nameless narrator, the insufferable Mrs. Van Hopper, and the mysterious, wealthy, and possibly walking red flag Maxim de Winter. Expect spoilers, literary gossip, questionable men, and plenty of unsolicited opinions. Want to keep going? The entire Rebecca series is ON SALE!

Mary Tudor has FINALLY become Queen of England. After decades of family drama, religious persecution, and her father's general Tudor fuckery, our girl has the crown. Surely things can only get better from here, right? In the third and final installment of our Mary I series, Katy and Nathan dive into the reign that transformed Mary Tudor into the infamous Bloody Mary. But how did the girl who spent most of her life fighting for her own survival become one of England's most notorious monarchs? And does the nickname Bloody Mary tell the whole story? Join us as we unpack the triumphs, tragedies, terrible decisions, and complicated legacy of England's first crowned queen regnant.

Mary Tudor has already lost her title, her mother, and any illusion that her father is going to come to his senses. And somehow… things are about to get even messier. In Part 2, Anne Boleyn is out, Mary is bullied into submission, and she's finally welcomed back into Henry VIII’s good graces. We follow her through new stepmothers, the brutal execution of Margaret Pole, and an uneasy reconciliation with the father who turned her life into a psychological horror story. Then Henry dies, her baby brother becomes King and Mary’s Catholic faith puts her right back in danger. By the end, Edward is dead. Mary is queen… right? Well. Yes and no.

Before she became Mary I of England, the queen history remembers as “Bloody Mary,” Mary Tudor was Henry VIII’s beloved only daughter. Born to Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon in 1516, Mary grew up ridiculously educated, wildly privileged, and fully expecting to become a queen. Then came the King’s Great Matter. As Henry fought to end his marriage to Catherine and marry Anne Boleyn, Mary’s world collapsed. She was separated from her mother, stripped of the title Princess, declared illegitimate, removed from the succession, and sent to serve in the household of her new baby sister, Elizabeth. And when Henry demanded Mary accept his new marriage and authority over the Church of England? Absolutely not. In Part 1, we follow Mary from spoiled Tudor princess to the family crisis that would shape England’s future queen.
