Summary

You’d think by having parents known as the power couple of Europe, dubbed the “Catholic Monarchs” by the Pope himself, that life would be a bit easier for our girl, Juana of Castile. Despite a surprisingly decent upbringing and a powerful mom who had the funds to bankroll Christopher Columbus’ voyage to America, Juana’s seemingly good fortune takes a turn not too long after her marriage to Philip the Handsome, Duke of Burgundy.  Although Juana and Philip’s attraction is on fire from day one, as soon as Juana gets knocked up he starts up with his mistresses. Our opinionated Scorpio rightfully doth protest and her tantrums give her a nickname we shall not repeat. Instead, we’ve opted for a Ricky Martin-inspired, cucumber-infused cocktail, La Vida Loca.    Make your own by mixing 1.5 ounces of Capelle Pisco, 0.5 ounces of Del Maguey Vida Mezcal, three-quarters of an ounce of cucumber shrub (or just blend some cucumber and stevia), three-quarters of an ounce of lime juice and then a quarter of an ounce of simple syrup. To Juana!    In this episode, you’ll also hear: How Juana is like the Pippa of the British royal family Swapping daughters in place of dowries - What could go wrong?   From crazy in love to legit emotional rollercoaster with no money  Must-listen moments:  [00:24:24] It was huge, huge, huge, huge. And Juana’s like, okay, so one, I get to break away from my overbearing mother that I might not necessarily have the best relationship with. Bonus, two, I get to marry this f***ing hottie and kind of have my own life.  [00:51:05] When it was the first kid and it just happened to be a daughter, the fathers usually were good sports about it. Philip was not, he didn't even pretend. He literally tells her you can pay for the upbringing of the daughters, I’ll pay when it’s a boy.  [01:03:30] They don’t understand postpartum depression. They don't understand, um, hormone imbalance and stuff like that. But, um, so you just have to think about like, Yeah, of course. She is experiencing a lot of high highs and lows emotionally. Half of her family has just died. Find out more about Juana of Castile in Part 2  Queens podcast is part of the Airwave Media podcast network.
