Everybody, its time to put your history hats on and be patient while Andrea and Annie go off on some wild tangents involving ghosts, privacy screens and a call to arms for the citizens of Guildford.
This week on Mostly Unsung, Andrea is off to Japan to tell the story of a tragically short life of courage and the never-ending battle to rid the world of creeps trying to look at ladies with no clothes on. Then Annie is going to make Andrea very angry by talking about just how fun it was to try and get divorced in the 1800's if you were a woman. Content warning-it was not fun. We don't go into details but we do mention spousal abuse so be gentle if that's not something you want to hear about.
