Today we have a very special episode: we have the writers and co-producer of the new musical The Queen is Mad about the rise and fall of Juana of Castile, the elder sister to Katharine of Aragon and daughter to Ferdinand and Isabella, the great Catholic monarchs.
To make things even more special, we have acclaimed historian Heather R Darsie on the call as well to tell us what really happened back in 16th century Europe.
