The Sex Lives of Royals Episode 1: Charles II
Yep, you heard me. Once a month we’ll be looking at the sex life of a monarch and how it impacted their reign. Yes, we’ll have fun, but each week will be based around a theme.

The Merry Monarch is famed for his bedroom antics, and in this episode, Charly White joins me to discuss how and why he got this reputation, whether or not he deserved it and how it has impacted our memory of him. From dodgy nannies to whether or not it is logistically possible to bite the manhood off a medieval monk mummy, least of all without catching something, tune in…
