In the Season 2 premiere of Reign On Me, host Jennifer Gulbrandsen sets the stage for the drama that will unfold by introducing listeners to the two longest reigning dynasties in Europe, the Wittlespachs and the Hapsburgs. Two families both alike in dignity, and of course intrigue throughout European history. It's through this rapid recap of these families that we are brought up to speed where we begin our adventure in the 1840's with four daughters of the Bavarian King, and how three of them will change Austria forever.
