Ep 30 - Trafalgar Sq, Angela Burdett-Coutts, mould breaker and icon

This week, Alex is thrilled to talk about Angela Burdett-Coutts, and it's her favourite podcast to date. We chat about the wonderfully unique Angela, who inherited a ton of money then spent her whole life giving it away! Friends with Charles Dickens and Queen Victoria, she scandalised society (not to mention changing her whole life) when she married a man over 30 years her junior and broke an important clause to her inheritance money...join us here to find out more.

 

Plus we find out who won the Podcast Pedestal and Emily gets her sweaty hands on the wheel again for another chance to see where we will get to chat about next week.
