    THE RED BARN MURDER: MARY MOORE & MARIA MARTEN

    Season 2, because we're in 2022! That's how this works, right? Today I have a very special episode created specially for my friend Sally: an historical true crime edition of she existed. set in Victorian England! In a twist on the usual setup of these kinds of episodes, in this one we already know whodunnit... the mystery is for you guess who the victim was-- the kind, gentle Mary Moore? Or the clever, curious Maria Marten? Either way, both of these young women's lives were tragically and permanently altered thanks to the callousness of one man. But they existed, and they deserve to have their story told.

    GWENDOLEN, ESTRILDIS, & HAFREN

    Stolen barbarian princesses, vengeful queens destroying their ex-husbands, the origin of not one, but TWO rivers in Britain... what more could you ask for in a season finale? As this will probably be the last episode of 2021, I want to say thanks for a marvelous first season of she existed.! I'm so pleased that other human beings find enjoyment in my discoveries and ramblings. Catch you next year with more women of history and/or legend previously unknown to me. Ciao!

    GENEPIL

    GENEPIL, the last Mongolian Queen Consort. A little later in the historical record than usually catches my fancy, her fascinating tale has sparked an interest in Mongolian history for me that I am super stoked to explore further, probably in future episodes! . Note: in the episode I'm unsure if Genepil is literally a descendant of Ghengis Khan or not (though I suspect she is) and I have subsequently confirmed that YES, she definitely was.
