We’re pulling some of our favorite stories out of the Patreon vault this week. First up, Stacie has the remarkable life and delicious sex scandal of Annabelle Battistella, better known as Fanne Foxe, The Argentine Firecracker, and the Tidal Basin Bombshell, whose mid-70s love affair brought down a powerful congressman. Then, Alicia follows up on some Hank 8 trash by recounting the era known as The Court of Two Queens.
