Summary

Jane Austen is one of the most revered writers in history, but how much is actually known about her life? On this episode we dive into the life and work of the author behind Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma and so much more. Also, our great mate Michelle Brasier joins us for the fun!


This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 08:58 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
