Episode 8 - Catherine Howard

Jess and Grace visit Tudor England to discuss the fifth and perhaps most notorious wife of Henry VIII.  Behind what is painted as a story of a frivolous, promiscuous Queen, is in fact the horrific tale of a groomed and exploited teenager.  A heavy story,  with a lot of trigger warnings, which reminds us of how women were treated as property for most of history.
