In which we learn about the 100 Years War via a burning man (no, not that type of burning man) and some power hungry uncles. Oh, and a marriage that started out fairly well. Sucks that psychologists did not exist in the 14th century.

In this long delayed (lol I forgot to hit schedule so it never got posted) episode, we learn that running off with a total HIMBO, even if he is your ex's son and he's due to inherit a giant kingdom is never a great idea. Featuring probably the worst choice in flings ever (don't date your wife's ex-husband's daughter!).

Episode Notes
