George IV and the Rebel of the Regency (with Ann Foster)

This week’s episode is a crossover we’ve been manifesting forever: Katy welcomes Ann Foster of the Vulgar History podcast for a messy, delightful deep dive into the Regency era—and one of its biggest villains: George IV. Ann brings the tea from her new book, Rebel of the Regency, as we unpack Regency vibes vs. reality, the absolute chaos of royal relationships, and why Caroline of Brunswick became such a lightning rod for public sympathy. If you love historical mess, flawed royals, and women who refuse to behave, this one’s for you.
