Description
When anyone thinks of Versailles, they think opulence, absolute monarchy, and severed heads. I'm here to tell you that there is so much more than that
Your favorite French history nerd and her regular nerd husband are here to talk everything Versailles. We start at the very beginning with Louis XIII, and even a glimpse into the a time before the Bourbon Kings, and we extend into the modern day musée.
So, please bear with us through the poor pronunciations and we promise to entertain you with one of my obsessions.

We go into Louis XIII and his contributions to Versailles, and a little bit in his background. There are some bad pronunciations and at least one funny impersonation! Artwork by Ash Valentine Song by Aitua
This Episode explores a political policy that no one could really make up their mind on. The Edict of Nantes; Henry IV and all his friends loved the idea, too bad Henry IV didn't have any friends.

It's here! The newest episode! The affair of the poisons! Are you interested in poisoning spouses? Disappearing Children? The idea of the upper class collapsing in on itself? Look no further! (No spouses where harmed in the making of this episode) Artwork by Ash Valentine @tatts_n_ash Music provided by FMA performed by Aitua
This Episode is a bit out of order, but with all the anniversaries of different revolutions coming up, We wanted to shake things up a bit. Take a look at what Versailles was like during the American Revolution Artwork by Ash Valentine @tatts_n_ash Music Provided by FMA
This episode we go off the rails a little bit as Chloey has a meltdown about rich people and Thomas Jefferson We also talk about Bastille Day (sorry, France) and it's effect on Versailles. We hope you dismantled a Government body for this one, folks! Artwork by Ash Valentine @tatts_n_ash Music provided by FMA and performed by Aitua
This week we talk about Louis XIV's friends coming over for a visit. Kurt offers advice for how to deal with France, and he also is baffled by windows. If that's not enough, how about The Hall of Mirrors, lions, bears, and not tigers though. Artwork by Ash Valentine Music provided by FMA
It's time to be our guest... AGAIN! This week Kurt says more than two words. We talk about Siam, Persia, and Issiny. In that order? Maybe. Versailles is so much more interesting with all this diplomats coming and going all the time. Artwork by Ash Valentine @tats_n_ash Music provided by FMA performed by Aitua
This weeks (lateish) episode is brought to you by deodorant, just use it, okay? Versailles was disgusting, so disgusting, Kurt goes back to only speaking in two word intervals. I joke, but not really. All the body fluids you can imagine! Artwork by Ash Valentine @tatts_n_ash Music Provided by FMA performed by Aitua
