In the latest episode, Jen and Kristin head across the pond to jolly old England, pip pip, Cheerios, old chaps, to check out the Tower of London and all the fun and murder that happened in and around it.

We talk about the menagerie that used to be kept at the Tower; the many, many, too many people killed there; Guy Fawkes’ Gun Powder plot and how Jen can’t say “effigy;” the little Lost Princes; and much more. And, of course, ghosts: Does Anne Boleyn walk around carrying her head? Is there a giant bear waiting to scare the bejesus out of tourists?

Listen and find out.
