About this episode
God save the queen! Craig gives us a hot quick deep dive (mmm) into the history of the Monarchy and God damn are there a lot of Edwards. And Georges. 3 Charles'. 2 Elizabeths. We're running the gamut here. Plus, learn about a cocktail neither Craig NOR Will would want to drink...the Monarch Martini.

About History. Rated R.
Let's be honest. History is full of f*cked up sh*t. But what are we gonna do, pretend like it never happened? Have a drink with your host, actor and writer Will Sterling, and his more qualified former Presidential Speechwriting co-host, Dr. Craig Smith.
