In this episode, Suzi and Gavin pry open the crates that prove history is actually a fever dream we can't wake up from. Tonight, we are exploring horrific surgical tools turned lumberjack hardware to wars over a bucket?
We go hard with this one. We've unpacked a whole lot of female rage, more cats, fashion, a whole lot of war, and a huge medeival "I told you so".
📂 IN THIS EPISODE:
- Case File #42: The Origin of the Chainsaw. Suzi reveals the horrifying truth: the chainsaw wasn't invented for trees. It was invented by doctors... for childbirth. (Trigger Warning: It’s a medical nightmare).
- Case File #43: The Lioness of Brittany. Gavin tells the story of Jeanne de Clisson, a widow who sold everything to buy three black warships and spent 13 years being an absolute menace to the French Crown out of pure female rage.
- Case File #44: Pope Gregory IX vs. Cats. The story of how one Pope decided cats were agents of Satan, ordered them exterminated, and accidentally rolled out the red carpet for the Black Death.
- Case File #45: The Invention of the High Heel. Men, you did this to yourselves. Gavin explains how high heels started as masculine military gear for short kings before men decided they were "too painful" and dumped them on women.
- Case File #46: The War of the Bucket. That time Bologna and Modena went to war, killed thousands of people, and held a grudge for 700 years... all over a stolen wooden bucket.
- Case File #47: Eleanor of Aquitaine. The ultimate medieval "I told you so." When the King of France divorced her for not producing a son, she married his rival and immediately built an empire of male heirs.
