  • Caroline of Brunswick part 1

    Caroline of Brunswick part 1
    Apr 22 2026
    In this episode of Queens Podcast, we dive into the chaotic early life of Caroline of Brunswick, the future Princess of Wales and one of the most controversial royal figures of the Regency era. Raised in isolation in the Duchy of Brunswick, Caroline’s childhood was anything but typical—marked by family dysfunction, social restriction, and a deep craving for attention that would follow her into adulthood. But everything changes when she’s chosen to marry her cousin, George IV, the scandal-prone Prince of Wales. From a disastrous first meeting to a wedding day filled with drunken chaos, this royal marriage starts off on the worst possible foot. If you love royal history, scandals, and messy marriages, this is just the beginning. Time stamps: Sources: For this one, I'm taking stories and research from Ann Foster's book Rebel of the Regency I also really enjoyed Even The Royals 2 episodes on Caroline Queens podcast is part of Airwave Media podcast network.

    The Fritzl Case: The Most Disturbing True Crime Story
    Apr 1 2026
    Note: This episode was previously released in our Patreon vault and is now available on the main feed for the first time. TRIGGER WARNING: EVERYTHING. If you thought you’d heard every shocking true crime story… you haven’t. In 2008, a case out of Austria stunned the world: a woman held captive for 24 years in a hidden basement by her own father, Josef Fritzl. In this episode, we break down the full story of the Fritzl case — how it started, how it went undetected for decades, and how it finally came to light. We also unpack the psychological manipulation, systemic failures, and the aftermath of one of the most disturbing crimes in modern history.

  • Queen Nzinga

    Queen Nzinga
    Mar 18 2026
    Queen Nzinga of Ndongo and Matamba is one of the most formidable rulers in African history, and in this episode of Queens Podcast, Katy and Nathan dive into her extraordinary life. In this episode, we explore Nzinga’s early life, her tense relationship with her brother, and the political chaos that followed his rule. We also get into her legendary 1622 meeting with the Portuguese governor, where she turned a calculated insult into one of the most iconic power moves in royal history. From there, Nzinga built alliances, commanded armies, and spent decades resisting Portuguese control. We also discuss the more complicated parts of her legacy, including religion, diplomacy, warfare, and the ways European writers tried to shape her story for their own purposes. If you love stories about powerful queens, African history, women rulers, and anti-colonial resistance, this episode is for you.
