A fascinating look into a different romance each week, from ancient history to current events, hosted by an adorable married couple. I especially love the special sections like Speculation Station, Poetry Corner and This Week's Side Piece.

Description

Throughout time and across the globe, from the Stone Age to the Digital Age, people have been having weird, wonderful, and downright absurd relationships. Real life spouses Diana and Eli are here to cover them all in a podcast that’s part history, part comedy, and all ridiculous. Hook up with some of the wildest and most interesting romantic partners to ever fall in love!
