We're back and we're getting institutionally promiscuous with SUPER KEENO Rachel (Bynoth) Smith. Rachel is a PhD student based between all of the Universities in the South West and specialises in Eighteenth and Nineteenth Century social, gender, and emotions history, particularly in relation to letter writing with a special focus on the Canning Family Network. Rachel BEGGED to come on the podcast and we finally gave in. In this episode we discuss overlaps between C18th anxieties and the life of contemporary academia, that the Canning family Letters were as spicy as Bridgerton Season 1, and whether or not writing over 1000 letters to your mother is normal. We play a quick round of Georgian Familial Anxiety Bingo and somehow end up speaking about spunk. A lot. Also, Louise and Alex record in the same place for the first time ever. Set phasers to CRUDE.
