Ep. 4 Ghost-Boats, Man-Eaters and Napoleon's Breakfast

Love is Dead: Historical Heartbreaks and Hot Takes Podcast

This week Rachel and Hazel take on THE most googled question of 2020: what is ghosting? We move from the Napoleonic era to the mythology of Ancient Greece in order to gain a better understanding of the term, and discover just how long humans have been ghosting one another. Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Bonaparte (née Patterson) and Ariadne of Crete provide us with inspiration for how to bounce back from a ghosting, and make us realise just how much historical-heartbreak seems to involve boats!
