Ep 27 Joanna of Naples

Joanna I of Naples led a fascinating life marked by both triumph and tragedy. Orphaned as a child, married four times, and rumored to have had her first husband killed outside her own bedchamber, she was a controversial figure even in her own day. Join us as we examine the ups and downs of one of the most powerful (yet oft-forgotten) women of the fourteenth century. (Host: Nathan Melson)

Hey I’m 1:25 into video and you offered your services as a history consultant. Would you wanna work with me on a series I’m writing? It’s amazing and I am an efficient hunter when solving histories puzzles but it would be amazing to have a partner to write with so my wife won’t leave me for only talking about history stuff all the time. Lol no joke though I’m a spectrumite and get so excited about this stuff. I’ve got some gold to share with the person who teams up with me. That’s as humble as I can be on this I’m checking off the mystery boxes left and right. Get at me if you wanna BS for a sec it would really make my year to talk to someone that I don’t have to explain a million things to just to get to the discovery of that makes sense. Test: before you get at me first solve this: Did Richard III slip out the back door and reinvent himself as a manchild European leader of the biggest mercenary army ever up to that point?
