The first episode of That's Rich is here! Join Daniel McKeon and Rory Kelly as they delve deep into the bizarre, decadent, and often upsetting world of the hyper rich. This week the boys discuss Empress Elagabalus and all her insane hijinks, from gold suicide towers to saffron baths.
[some chat is quite heavy about suicide, murder, and other topics given the historical side so be warned!]
