First of all, I would like to apologise for the sound quality. I thought it would be better to get another episode out while my Mac is still working. The warning at the beginning of the episode pertains to about a minute of content.

Apologies to everyone, I did not do a quote this time. I realise the sound is not great, but this was the third time I'd recorded it. Anyway, enjoy,

To a woman who didn't suffer fools gladly, she was a force to be reckoned with. I applaud her tenacity and flair for being outspoken in a world when it was hard to speak openly as a woman. But it was in a time when being an outspoken woman was frowned upon. And she did shack up with a man 25 years her senior while he was still married to another woman, with whom he had fathered seven children. However, if she'd been a man doing this at the time, would there still be the dramatics associated with her?

Listen, it's a good one!
