The Real Life Moby Dick | The Essex Shipwreck: Part 2

Madi and her Batch of Bards give you a hot, fresh cup of history gossip. Madi, Betsy, Coco, Chris, Gabby and Taylor take turns telling each other (and YOU!) all of the fun, juicy details of history, and skip anything that isn’t spill-worthy. We research people, places, things, and events from all around the world, and even sling some of the world's finest Folktales your way every third episode. At the end of each episode, catch a FreshCup with Betsy, where we take to the internet for just a quick little sip of contemporary tea before the blooper reel plays. Just some good 'ol historical story telling; that's the tea at Spill the Mead.
