Bad Girls of History

Yeah, it's usually referred to as the "fall" of Anne Boleyn, like she flew too close to the sun or something, but let's call it what it really was. In the season 1 finale, Scarlett explains how Thomas Cromwell built his garbage case against Anne Boleyn and how the fake evidence didn't add up at the sham trials, and hopes that you "judge the best" as Anne requested in her execution speech. 

In the penultimate episode of season 1, Scarlett talks about what led to the final boss, Thomas Cromwell, deciding to take down Anne Boleyn, and why she was vulnerable to a takedown at this time. ACAB includes Thomas Cromwell. 

In episode 4, Scarlett discusses Anne and Henry finally getting married, the birth of Elizabeth, the Act of Succession, Henry's treatment of his daughter Mary, and the bad-sex-ruined-everything and good-sex-ruined-everything myths.

In episode 3 of season 1, Scarlett talks about Henry VIII's bid for an annulment, how Anne Boleyn helped him become head of the Church of England, and how the Duke of Norfolk is Littlefinger. 

In this episode, Scarlett explores Henry's first marriage to Katherine of Aragon and the evidence that he pursued Anne Boleyn, not the other way around. Targaryen references are kept to a minimum. 

A new podcast celebrating and defending history's unruly women! Host Scarlett examines the lives of rebellious women who didn't obey the social mores of their time and were punished or at least defamed for it. Each season will take an in-depth look at one particular woman and examine whether or not her "Bad Girl" reputation was deserved. This is the first season, and it's all about Anne Boleyn.In this first of six episodes of season one, Scarlett introduces the podcast, gives an overview of some common myths about Anne Boleyn that will be debunked, and examines Anne's early life, arrival at the English court, and engagement to Henry Percy.
