Ye Olde Tea Caroline McQuaig

Alright you lusty freebooters, this week, nestled amongst quick sips from Fiona and Caroline, is a very special guest! Alexia Antoniou spills the (very well researched) tea about Clovis I, the first king of the Franks, AKA Clovis the Petty. We cover the TV you need to be watching, nasty horse girls, and the truth within the spin. Also jugs. Very important jugs. 

Ever wonder what it's like to live with Fiona and Caroline? This is it. We didn't have any well researched stories for you this week so instead we chat about life and our very own tea!

This week Caroline tackles a hometown inspired story with John Wilkes and Edwin Booth, and Fiona talks about her favorite pickup line, The Irish Potato Famine.
