The SCANDAL Mongers Podcast

THE PRINCESSES ARE BACK! + SLAVES OF ROME | Ep 146 | The Scandal Mongers Podcast

Despite all their recent family scandals, Beatrice and Eugenie attended a high profile royal wedding last week. And Prince William made sure the press could see his friendly feelings toward them both.So is it right that these two young royals should - or could - be back into the fold, and what value could they bring to a rather under-staffed royal family? Or should they be made to stand outside the inner circle as a consequence of their own alleged mistakes, and the sins of their parents?Phil is then joined by Emma Southon, an expert on Ancient Rome who spoke on the podcast two year ago about Roman women. Now she has turned her attention to Rome’s millions of slaves and - in this very entertaining and enlightening conversation - she has a LOT to say about their lives and how historians have tended to romanticise them in the past.

Charles’ Monstrous Mentors + The Scandals of Jacobean London | Ep.145 | The Scandal Mongers Podcast

Phil has recently spoken very positively about the way King Charles is handling his reign. But there’s a story about his earlier - and much more controversial - life that’s hardly ever been told. In his bachelor days and as a young man recently married to Diana Spencer, Charles was heavily under the influence of some seriously strange - even dangerous - people. So who were the men who shaped the mindset of Britain’s future King, and psychologically prepared him for marriage and public life? You’ll be surprised!Phil is then joined by young academic Amilia Gillies to discuss the weird and wonderful world of another royal court - that of King James (the 1st of England and 6th of Scotland). It was a colourful and highly scandalous time, full of larger than life characters and some very naughty poetry!There’s information and extracts from Phil’s own new book here...https://sites.google.com/view/1945thereckoning/homeYou can order his book on Amazon UK and Amazon Australia, India and NZ - and it is available all around the world as an e-book and an audio book...https://www.amazon.co.uk/1945-Reckoning-Empire-Struggle-World/dp/139971449X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=#***We now have a Thank You button (next to the ’three dots’) for small donations that help support our work***Looking for the perfect gift for a special scandalous someone - or someone you’d like to get scandalous with?
