We're keeping it in the family this week with tales of gross, gross royal incest. First up, Heather tackles the history of the famed Hapsburg Jaw, a topic so near and dear to her heart she literally dibsed before we recorded our first episode. Then, JB fills us in on the incestuous lineage of ancient Egyptian pharaohs, including the true story of King Tut.
