History Tea Time

• Royal Yacht Britannia - Queen Elizabeth II’s Floating Palace

  When Queen Elizabeth II and her family went on vacation, they didn’t fly coach or take a carnival cruise. They traveled in style aboard Her Majesty’s Yacht Britannia. The Queen designed the ship herself the year of her coronation. This was her favorite place to be, where she could truly unwind. I recently had the opportunity to tour this historic yacht in Edinburgh, Scotland. And to talk with the Yotties who served the Queen while she traveled the world. Let’s explore this floating time capsule, learn how it functioned, find out where the royals visited, what they ate, how they slept and relaxed. I’ll dish on the four honeymoons which took place on board, and we’ll be treated to an intimate glimpse of the British royal family at their most relaxed, while on vacation!

• Current Queens & Consorts of Europe

  Through most of history, monarchs wielded unlimited political and military power, while their Queens and consorts were in charge of producing heirs and ruling the hearts of the people. Since the fall of feudalism, the 10 remaining hereditary monarchs of Europe have lost their unchecked authority. But their spouses’ so called ‘soft powers’ of hosting diplomats, supporting charities and greeting the public are more important than ever. And they look fabulous doing it! Let’s meet the Queens consort of Belgium, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, the Grand duchess of Luxembourg, and the Princess of Monaco. We’ll also meet the Prince consort of Denmark and the Princess of Liechtenstein who have both recently died.

• The Kennedys – America's 'Royal' Families

  Correction: JFK was assasinated on 11/22/1963 Ever since the United States rejected hereditary Monarchy, Americans have had a fascination with political dynasties. The Adamses, the Roosevelts, and the Bushes have all become pseudo-royal families with multiple generations in high office. But no clan has embodied this more than the Kennedys. They achieved the American dream, going from penniless Irish immigrants to millionaires and world leaders in 3 generations. But their success has come at a high price. Two assassinations, four plane crashes, a failed lobotomy and numerous other tragedies have haunted this American dynasty. Everyone knows JFK, Jackie and RFK. But today we’ll meet all the Kennedy, explore their fascinating connections to Hollywood stars and European aristocrats, and the many tragedies which have lead to the idea of a Kennedy curse. Patrick Kennedy PJ Kennedy Joseph Patrick Kennedy Joseph Jr. Kennedy John Fitzgerald Kennedy JFK Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onasis Caroline Lee Bouvier Radziwill Caroline Kennedy John Kennedy Jr JFK Jr. Rosemary Kennedy Kathleen Kennedy Eunice Kennedy Maria Shriver, Arnold Schwarzenegger Katherine Schwarzenegger, Chris Pratt Patricia Kennedy Peter Lawford, Christopher Lawford Robert “Bobby” Kennedy RFK, Ethel Kennedy RFK Jr. Joe Kennedy Jean Kennedy Edward “Ted” Kennedy Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!
