Madi and her Batch of Bards give you a hot, fresh cup of history gossip. Madi, Betsy, Coco, Chris, Gabby and Taylor take turns telling each other (and YOU!) all of the fun, juicy details of history, and skip anything that isn’t spill-worthy.

We research people, places, things, and events from all around the world, and even sling some of the world's finest Folktales your way every third episode.

At the end of each episode, catch a FreshCup with Betsy, where we take to the internet for just a quick little sip of contemporary tea before the blooper reel plays.

Just some good 'ol historical story telling; that's the tea at Spill the Mead.

  • Eléonore Pour Toujours | Eleanor of Aquitaine: Part 2

    Eléonore Pour Toujours | Eleanor of Aquitaine: Part 2
    Oct 1 2025

    Well, our girl did it. She became part of that power couple, and they joined forces, had lots of babies, and lived happily ever after: the end.

    Nope. It’s so much more than that. We’re talking her new husband and ex-husband meeting face to face, her sons starting a literal rebellion against their father the king, and being a prisoner for literal years… the life of Eleanor of Aquitaine is not for the weak.

    She is the true Medieval Queen, and the legacy she leaves behind is loud. Long Live Queen Eleanor.

  • Pigs, Pirates, & Popes | Eleanor of Aquitaine: Part 1

    Pigs, Pirates, & Popes | Eleanor of Aquitaine: Part 1
    Sep 24 2025

    Well HoneyBees, it's time. After literal YEARS of waiting, Chris Riley is FINALLY giving us the story of Eleanor of Aquitaine. Blessed day.

    In part one, we discuss the origins of Eleanor (the name and the woman) and her life through her first marriage. So you know, just becoming the queen of France, the Crusade, the pirate kidnapping, and the INSANE rumors started about this women.

    And this is just the first half of her life.

    We also get a Happy Ending with Betsy where we go over the scary movies coming out this spooky season!

  • Palaces of Pleasure | The Women Who Funded the West

    Palaces of Pleasure | The Women Who Funded the West
    Sep 10 2025

    The Madams of the Wild West were some of the richest people in the entire country. In this episode, we explore what life would have been like for "soiled doves" of the gold rush era.

    The west was lawless and DANGEROUS. These women were brave, intelligent, and just as hard (no pun intended) as the men. We not only look at what life would have been like for the Good-Time-Girl in the Old West, but the legacy they left behind. The biggest cities in the Western USA today were funded by the charities, fines, fees, and good wills of these Madams.

    These women lived extraordinary lives in a treacherous time, and their stories should be told, not hidden from history.
