History Tea Time

• The Anglo-Saxon Queens & Consorts of England 1/8

  The first Anglo-Saxon Queens of England before the Norman conquest are shrouded in the mists of history. Their stories read like fairytales and in fact one of them inspired the evil stepmother. The Anglo-Saxon Queen Consorts were: Ælfgifu of Shaftesbury Æthelflæd of Damerham Ælfgifu Ælfthryth of Devon Ælfgifu of York Emma of Normandy Ealdgyth Edith of Wessex Ealdgyth of Mercia The lives of the many Kings and handful of Queens Regnant who have held dominion over the kingdom of England, and later the United Kingdom take center stage in history. But the lives of their spouses and mothers are often relegated to the wings. In this series we will learn the stories of the many Queens Consort and the handful of male consorts who have been at the monarchs’ sides. Through love, hate, adultery and sometimes murder these women and men have played vital roles in the history of England. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

• Women of the Titanic

  On the night of April 14, 1912, 2,224 people faced doom in the middle of the fridge north Atlantic. The luxury liner hailed as unsinkable was about to do just that and disappear beneath the waves.

Today lets met a handful of the real women who were on board that terrible night. We’ll learn more about the famous first class ladies like Madeline Astor and Molly Brown but also met some of the lesser known passengers of second and third class including the only black family aboard.

• King Charles II's Illegitimate Children

  Charles II, King of England, Scotland & Ireland from 1660 to 1685 is one of the most notorious lotharios in history. He loved the ladies and took both noble women and commoner actresses to bed, sometimes multiple times a day. And the ladies were certainly up for it. In addition to enjoying the charming sovereign’s company, they also enjoyed the gifts, estates, and noble titles he lavished upon them and their children. Last week we met Charles’s 14 known mistresses. Today we’ll meet the results of all that sensual behavior, the King’s 13 recognized illegitimate children. To his sons he granted Dukedoms and Earldoms and for his daughters he arranged marriages to the wealthiest noble bachelors. The King personally populated a new generation of English peers. But despite his lusty libido, Charles didn’t have a single legitimate child to inherit his throne. When he died and his unpopular brother became King James II many in the nation looked to his eldest illegitimate son as a possible alternative monarch and rebellion ensued. Let’s meet King Charles II’s 13 Illegitimate Children... James Scott, Duke of Monmouth Charlotte FitzRoy, Countess of Yarmouth Charles FitzCharles, Earl of Plymouth Catherine FitzCharles Anne Palmer, Countess of Sussex Charles FitzRoy, Duke of Cleveland Henry FitzRoy, Duke of Grafton Charlotte Lee, Countess of Lichfield George FitzRoy, Duke of Northumberland Charles Beauclerk, Duke of St Albans James Beauclerk Charles Lennox, Duke of Richmond Mary Tudor, Countess of Derwentwater Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

• Disney Doppelgängers, Part 2

  I have been enchanted by Disney since childhood. And as an adult, whenever I’m watching any movie or TV show, I can’t help but play “Where do I know that actor from?” Thank you, IMDB for making my adult life that little bit easier. One of my first forays into content creation, way back in 2014 was a series I made called “Disney Doppelgangers” where I compare two or more famous animated Disney characters who are voiced by or modeled after the same actor. Alice and Wendy; the Queen of Hearts & Fairy Godmother; Baloo and Little John and many more! I still love this series and often recommend it to Kids who are interested in checking out my work. So without further adieu, please enjoy this collection of my 15 short Disney Doppelganger episodes! Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!
