In this week's episode of the Toasted Tale podcast, we look at the fascinating life of Harriet Tubman. It would take ages to list the achievements, jobs and extraordinary historical events this woman had a part in so I thought it would be more fun to put it all in a podcast, so here you are!

 

I hope you enjoy and have a great week!

Hello and welcome to another episode of the Toasted Tale podcast. This week we are bringing to life audibly the third letter received by those who read the 'A town called me' blog back in 2018. If you missed it previously, then no matter! Here it is for you again. I would recommend listening to the first in this series first (episodes 64 then 65) as things may make a bit more sense that way!

Welcome to another episode of the Toasted Tale Podcast! This week we shine the spotlight on Jane Whorwood, royalist spy and collaborator of King Charles during the English Civil war. Her efforts during and surrounding the conflict directly impacted the way history played out, and without her tireless service, we can only imagine how things would be different now!

Welcome to today's episode of the Toasted Tale Podcast where we take a small look at the conflict going on in Ukraine, the narrative of the major players in the conflict and just the bizarreness of it all!

This episode is a little more free form and a getting-things-out-of-my-head kind of episode. I feel it was needed in these crazy times. I hope you enjoy!

How must it feel to be one of the few people in the world to see the real side of a global superstar? Lets look into the story of the two tortured souls Ed Fiengersh, a brilliant photographer, and movie star darling Marilyn Monroe.

They spent a short period of time together as she was escaping Hollywood's grasps in New York and captured some of the most candid and real images of the woman known to exist.
