Folktales XXV
Folktales TWENTY FIVE! Our multiples of five are usually great, and this one is no exception. A lady who slays serpents (and judges you if you can't slay serpents), a girl who wants to go out with her friends to get new teeth (as one does), an 'ugly' man who tricks his beautiful wife, a village who has to move because of cursed bananas, and a gaslighting husband. Yikes.

Alright, here we go. It’s time to begin our series on the POWERHOUSE that is Catherine of Aragon. Yes, she was the first (and longest) wife of Henry VIII, but she was so much more than that.

This is not a “good” podcast. This is THE podcast. I want to travel the world with these women, their content is that wholesome, hilarious, and interesting.
