Updated: Jul 31



Today, we're joined by Ann Foster, host and creator of the Vulgar History podcast. She and Gavin talk about the enigmatic Princess Caraboo, an exotic princess who washed up on English shores in 1817 and generated a sensation in the press as various observers tried to work out where she had come from.
