Hello there, it's your host, Kate Lister. Now listen here, I have some very exciting news for you,

Betwixters. After selling out our live recording of Betwixt on Thursday the 4th of September,

we sold it out again. And then we sold it out again. And now we've had to be moved to the biggest

theatre that they have. And that means we have a few more tickets on sale.

So I can tell you a little bit more about the show now. We have a very special guest,

a very good friend of this show, who you will be most likely to find talking about medieval things.

Yes, it's the epic Dr. Eleanor Janager. And what are we going to talk about? Well,

we are going to be playing a historical game of Shaggath, Marrieth and Killeth, Kings Edition,

where we will be deep diving into the sex lives, the dressing rooms, the bathrooms,

and the marriages of three kings, with some audience participation, of course, a lot of history and

of course, a lot of laughs. We hope that we will see you there. Book your tickets by following

the link in the show notes or go to kingsplace.com.uk. Or just search for the London podcast festival

and you'll find them. Snap up the last remaining tickets and I'll see you there.

Right on with the show. Hello, my lovely betwixters. It's me, Cade Lister, and you have arrived at Betwicks the Sheets. And thank God that you're here, because if you weren't here, I mean, what is the point of any of this? But before we can go any further, I do have to let you know, in case you've forgotten that this is an adult podcast spoken by adults

to other adults about adulty things

and an adult's way covering around to adults

to fix an adult this is an adult podcast spoken by adults to other adults about adulty things and an adulty way covering around adults, so fix being an adult too. And we call that the fair do's warning because, well, fair do's, we did tell you it was going to get spicy. Right, on with the show. You can say a lot of things about Charles II, but it's got to be said, he very much brought the good time vibes back to Britain after a long old stint of Puritanism.

Quite frankly, any alternative to Puritanism is likely to be seen as quite radical.

Those guys thought that church hymns were too much of a good time.

So it's no surprise that Charlie Boy was nicknamed the Merry Monarch.

But boy, oh boy, did he like to have a good

time. One diarist described him as a prince of many virtues in good parts, but insatiable of women.
