Antique Tea
Antique Tea is a deep look into all the gossip you've never heard about...because everyone is already dead. Part history - part dish, Erica Maity researches the hell out of historical figures you may or may not know about. She digs deep and pulls out all the skeletons in their closet. Including their own skeleton. Then she serves up tea to her bestie Jason Hays who doesn't know history from his elbow. He devours the hot goss and spins his modern take on all their bullshit. It's just two good friends throwing shade throughout history. So put on your fanciest gown, pull up a Queen Anne side chair, and pour yourself a hot cup of Antique Tea.

Editor's note: we recorded this with a new setup very late at night so the audio is not quite where we like it to be. Apology for sporadic clicks, hisses, and occasional loss of lucidity on the part of your hosts.
