Blood and Salt: Joan of Flanders & the Lioness of Brittany
In this episode of Low Expectations, we dive into the untold stories of two of medieval Europe’s fiercest women: Joan of Flanders, the indomitable Duchess who defended Hennebont with fire and steel, and Jeanne de Clisson, the infamous Lioness of Brittany who turned pirate queen after her husband’s execution. Both widows, both warriors, and both driven by vengeance, these women carved their names into history through defiance, bloodshed, and unrelenting survival.
From castle sieges to pirate raids on the English Channel, we unravel how Joan of Flanders and the Lioness of Brittany defied kings, waged private wars, and became living legends of resistance. Their stories blend political intrigue, betrayal, and revenge — a medieval saga of widowhood turned into warfare.
If you love tales of rebellion, forgotten heroines, and the darker side of history, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
