Season 2 Finale (And a Peek Behind the Scenes!)

<p>After around 20 episodes, season 2 of the Vocabbett podcast is coming to a close!</p> <p>I’d gladly continue it forever, but I was recently accepted to UCSD’s college counseling program. Since they operate on a quarterly system, I’m able to start my first class in March!</p> <p>I honestly don’t know exactly how the college counseling certificate will play into the future of Vocabbett, but as I discuss in the podcast, I do want to turn Vocabbett into a profitable, sustainable business, and while I’m having a blast with what I’m currently doing, it’s not exactly self-sustaining.</p> <p>In episode 76, I dive into various ways I could grow Vocabbett moving forward. You can listen below or on your favorite podcast player.</p> <p>And if you have any ideas or thoughts about all this, please, let me know! Seriously, just shoot me an email at contact@vocabbett.com.</p>

Margo Durrell - Quite the Character

<p>If you’ve seen <a href= "https://vocabbett.com/podcast-34/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">The Durrells in Corfu</a>, you’ll undoubtedly remember the slightly dotty daughter in the series, Margo.</p> <p>When I finished the show (a slightly heartbreaking moment – I hope they release a new season in the future!), I was exceptionally curious about what happened next for the family. Though the show offers a fictionalized account of the Durrells’ lives, the characters were based on real people. To think of them in the clutches of World War II…</p> <p>For episode 75 of the Vocabbett podcast, I share more about the remarkable life of Margo Durrell.</p> <p>You can listen below or on your favorite podcast player!</p> <p>-</p> <p><strong>Episode Correction:</strong> Thanks to a listener for pointing out that I was in error on the publication date of "Whatever Happened to Margo." It was originally published in 1995, and she didn't pass away until 2007 -- therefore, it was very much NOT a posthumous publication! </p> <p><strong>Referenced In This Episode:</strong></p> <p><a href= "https://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv-radio/933123/The-Durrells-ITV-Margo-Durrell-Gerald-Durrell-Daisy-Waterstone-Keeley-Hawes" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv-radio/933123/The-Durrells-ITV-Margo-Durrell-Gerald-Durrell-Daisy-Waterstone-Keeley-Hawes</a></p>

Cleopatra's Little Sister

<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>We've all heard of Cleopatra, but how many people know she had a little sister -- and a pretty remarkable one at that?</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Arsinoe IV was about ten years younger than Cleopatra, but my guess is that, had their ages been reversed, we'd all know Arsinoe and it would be, "Cleopatra who?"</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>At around 12 years old, she was commanding an army and outwitting Julius Caesar!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Listen to episode 74 of the Vocabbett podcast to learn all about her. And as promised, here is the link to the episode of "Drunk History" about her for those who want to watch!</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ab4rYDR0yY&t" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ab4rYDR0yY&t</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ab4rYDR0yY&t" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></a></p> <p>I said it in the podcast, but I'll say it again here: <strong>there is a lot of profanity in this video!</strong></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>It's hilarious if you don't mind that sort of thing, but there are about 1,000 swear words in 10 minutes and some PG-13-level vulgarity. <strong>Consider yourself warned!</strong></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p>
