Welcome to the History Tricks, where any resemblance to a boring old history lesson is purely coincidental.

Once upon a time, in a different time, but the same place, in fact the dining table in the middle of Beckett Graham's House of Wood,

two ladies met to talk about Marie Antoinette.

Same ladies, same microphone, same computer, same table, however several years of experience have happened since then.

And ever since then, we kept saying, what are we going to do with Marie Antoinette?

We would start to listen to it and just make us cringe, because we left out some stuff.

We left a lot, mostly in inappropriate locations. We talked over each other, just like then. We talked over each other, part of it.

We kept promising to talk about something later and never actually getting to it.

Silly Becca ensues and so we decided, both as a service to you, because Marie Antoinette is one of the most downloaded episodes we have,

and as a service to ourselves to keep the cringing honestly, our shoulders are cramped.

It was really bad.

So, I tell you what, what we're going to do here is what we call Marie Antoinette to reboot.

She'd approve of that boot, fashion, it's fabulous.

So what we're going to do is go back in with the benefits of five years of work on ourselves,

and on the subject, honestly, and give you a new and improved coverage of Marie Antoinette.

You can thank us in an hour, or maybe two.

Maybe two.

I do have quite a few more notes and I had the original time. I know almost twice as many.

I have quite a few. Crazy. I know. I'm with the show.

And here's your 32nd summary.

A princess born with a silver spoon, travels to France to marry a boy with a golden crown.

She spends quite a bit of breath on jewels.
