Yo! Abby and Danny are back to discuss another episode of The Tudors! But first, we discuss the Queen on Zoom, Philip attending his own funeral, and the Queen’s blatant disrespect for our podcast. Then, the Tudors gets a little too real as it depicts an outbreak of Sweating Sickness. What will be the best coping strategy? Citrus? Aromatherapy? Late night workouts? Experimenting with bisexuality? We explore all of these trauma responses and then Abby breaks down the many outbreaks of sweating sickness in British history and their repercussions in a “history we probably should have learned from” lesson. All this plus: too many Charles Brandons!
TV Episode: The Tudors, season 1, episode 7: Message to the Emperor (aka A Crown and a Doily)
