  • Agnes Sorel: The First Royal Mistress and Her Scandalous Legacy.

    Today on Queens podcast, we revisit a cursed episode from 2021. We are having another look at the controversial life of Agnes Sorel, the official mistress of King Charles VII of France.

    We'll get into the scandal of her life along with a conspiracy theory or two. This is also a great time to revisit our episodes on Isabeau of Bavaria or Yolande of Aragon too!

    The episode explores whether there was a conspiracy to install Agnes as a political tool and covers her humanitarian efforts, fashion impact, and her untimely death under suspicious circumstances.

  • Welcome back to Queens Podcast's Wars of the Roses week. Today we're spilling the (trauma) tea on Elizabeth of York. You may know her as the first Tudor Queen, but in this episode we're going over her life during the Wars of the Roses and her part to FINALLY END THE WAR! (tho not quite yet)
    Rife with political in-fighting, betrayal, murder, and long periods of refuge in ‘sanctuary.’ This George R. R. Martin-esque tale’s silver lining is after years of being a political pawn and simply trying to survive, Elizabeth of York’s tale ends about as happily as you could ask.

    Elizabeth of York’s story includes:

    Multiple familial murders

    Absolute political drama (War of the Roses)

    Secret engagement

    A love-to-hate antagonist we refer to affectionately as Uncle Dick (Richard Duke of Gloucester, Richard III)


    It pairs best with the Rose May (Heyyy) Sangria ([00:02:30] for the recipe).
