  • Eleanor of Aquitaine: The Queen Who Built Empires for Loser Kings

    Eleanor of Aquitaine: The Queen Who Built Empires for Loser Kings
    Jan 19 2026
    This week, we’re joined by Katy from Queens Podcast, whose deep knowledge of royal history helps us unpack how Eleanor quietly (and sometimes not-so-quietly) shaped empires, fueled crusades, and influenced generations of rulers, all while being married to two very mediocre kings who consistently failed upward. From Louis VII to Henry II, we break down how Eleanor’s intelligence, wealth, and strategy built power structures that men happily claimed as their own. We explore Eleanor’s marriages, her imprisonment, her political savvy, and why history punished her for the same ambition it rewarded in men. Plus: feminist rage, royal divorce drama, and proof that the concept of “letting him think it was his idea” is much older than we thought. If you love powerful women, messy monarchies, and reclaiming history from underwhelming men ,this episode is for you.

  • The Boston Tea Party: America’s First Public Meltdown

    The Boston Tea Party: America’s First Public Meltdown
    Jan 12 2026
    It’s our first episode of 2026, and we’re kicking off the year by spilling the most famous tea in American history... literally. You learned about the Boston Tea Party in school, but probably not like this. We’re breaking down what actually led a group of colonists to dress up, break into ships, and dump thousands of pounds of tea into Boston Harbor. From corporate monopolies and bad political decisions to unhinged protests and unintended consequences, this episode proves once again that history is just gossip. Oh and we're sorry that we said we wanted to beef with our British Rammes, you know we love you. Welcome to 2026 with Right Answers Mostly!

  • George Washington Was… Kinda Hot?

    George Washington Was… Kinda Hot?
    Dec 15 2025
    This week, we’re joined by Dr. Lindsay M. Chervinsky , presidential historian and Executive Director of the George Washington Presidential Library at Mount Vernon , to talk all things George Washington Dr. Chervinsky breaks down a George Washington you’ve probably never met: a little petty, a little theater-kid coded, low-key hot, surprisingly funny, occasionally temperamental, and undeniably courageous. We get into the myths, the mess, the leadership, and why George’s particular brand of integrity (and humor!) is something we desperately wish we saw more of today.
