A short-ish episode for you sweet Gilded Gang listeners! Google was kind on Haley's rabbit hole search, and gifted us with the story of the Rothschild Surrealist Ball.
Stephen is recovered from the brink of death and somehow found a Gilded Age tale that Haley has NEVER HEARD OF. And Haley just got really into a new podcast and recapped an episode for you.
We're really sorry for the French accents on this one, guys. They really got away from us Anywho, tune in to Stephen talking about the woman responsible for killing the planet! Haley talks about the Wedding of the Century!
It's 2022! Haley talks about stupid fashion trends. Stephen talks about rich people pissing contents. An exciting time for all of us. We've missed you, Gilded Gang.
Cutting it close, but we did it! An August episode to fill our monthly quota! Come learn about Stephens Crazy Crib series finale! Then get historical and learn about how to melt your own ding dang amber!
Welcome to the exhausted, low energy episode! We were pooped while recording this, y'all. We definitely got a little loopy towards the end there, so we highly recommend sticking around til the end for some slap-happy hosts. Haley was given her topic by her friend Jose, who mentioned his hometown's cemetery while their dogs were playing. Stephen is here with Crazy Crib #4, and boy is it a doozy.
Hey yo hey! Come listen to another installment of Crazy Cribs! And also some Stephen backstory! Turns out the poor boy can never go skiing again. Second half is all about the Bonaparte you've never heard of! Finally... Sneads Ferry? Call us. We love you
Come listen and learn about Nawab Bob (okay, his name is actually Muhammed Mahabat Khanji III, but Nawab Bob is just so catchy), a Chump Change involving anime and gold, and a continuation of Stephen's Crazy Cribs series!
Welcome to Season 2! At least... We're calling it Season 2 after our longest hiatus ever. Sorry about the no warning, guys. We didn't know if was happening either, and then after a while it seemed like it had been to long to even bring it up.. You know how it is. Anyways, topics for this episode include the first in Stephen's new series that he's calling "Crazy Cribs", and Haley talks about the richest man in all of history! That's right. History.
Goodness gracious, episode 30! Look at us go! Apologies for being extremely late on the upload, my sweet Gilded Gang, but as usual, life got the better of us. But to ring in our 30th episode (and to give Stephen a break and give him a chance to recover from his cold), Haley is taking the wheel on this one and using the WHOLE HOUR to talk about the Gatekeeping Queen of New York City in the Victorian Era.
Haley talks about Guinness Book of World Record winner of the title "World's Greatest Miser" and Stephen talks about the guy who made storage lockers a thing! Also far too many show recommendations?
Oh no we accidentally created an awful catchphrase this episode! Well, please forgive us and listen to Stephen talk about a man who created an extremely silly "mansion". And then stick around for Haley to talk about a scam of epic proportions from 18th century France! Like what you hear? Give us a rate and review on apple podcasts! (pretty please?)

*Disclaimer* The last 6 minutes of Stephen's audio was lost. Haley's audio remains in place to give an ending to the story. Please forgive how strange it may sound. Hiatus is OVER! Three cheers for that. Please join us today as Stephen regales us with the life of the self-proclaimed Queen of Mean. And then stick around to hear Haley tell you about the definition of an 1800's eccentric wealthy fop. Follow us on instagram to see the photos we referenced in today's episode!

Anyhoo, Haley brings her first two parter topic today with the crazy Yellow-Journalism entrepreneur and his ridiculous estate. Stephen managed to find the world's original Ponzi Scheme grifter, and no, it isn't Ponzi!
Boy oh boy, we sure are good at not having life get in the way of our hobby podcast... Sorry for the wait you guys! This episode is filled with many side tangents, and some insight into Haley's high school history lessons that may explain why she is just SO INTO THIS. Stephen brings to the table two wildly different people - the man who invented the pet rock (have we done that one before??) and then a man who collects dwarves. Which is, you know, not great. Chump Change has us wondering if y'all...
How do you do, fellow Yurt Yeeters? Okay but really, you'll have to look at the photos of these extremely fancy yurts on our instagram/twitter and mourn the fact that they were yeeted. Come learn about the fancy fancy yurts and other very good information all about the 2,500th Anniversary Celebration of Persia! And then Stephen has gotten very interested in his new job and found out that you can basically insure anything if you try hard enough. Like what we do? Give us a review! It really does h...
Guys, we're sorry for this one. This is our second annual Christmas episode and it's just the epitome of capitalism, so it's bound to make you angry. It sure made us angry! We're thinking sticking to the wealthy of the past for the next few episodes may be smart. Anyways, take a listen for Stephen up first talking about the top ten most expensive gifts you could buy, and then listen to Haley talk about how the wealthy of today spend an average Christmas (lights, gingerbread houses, dinner, etc.)...
Welcome to a very special guest episode! Say hello to Haley's Thanksgiving Dinner guests, Alicia, Brandon, & Chris, who kindly agreed to be told an outlandish story by Haley. This episode is all about the 5th Duke of Portland, an aristocrat we're fairly certain is a mole person. PS Please excuse any echos, editing was difficult due to the many voices.

The Halloween Episode is here!! Get excited to hear Haley talk all about how The Happiest Place on Earth decorates for Halloween in ONE NIGHT. And then Content Warning for Stephen's topic, mention of insane asylums, blood, mistreatment, death, bones. Yeah, things took a dark turn for Stephen, but I guess we ordered something spooky for the holiday!
Oh boy, here we go naming our listeners and coming up with segment names, everybody run for your lives! Stephen goes first today with the topic of a Gilded Age millionaire who probably could have become an Owl themed version of Batman. Haley opts to talk about the Golden Age of Hollywood and its 1920's power couple and also a minorly spooky story?
Haley went to France and was inspired to tell the tales of 17th Century life in French Court! Stephen finally finished the massive cliffhanger he left us on last episode: what happened to the Fugger family? Also we're trying out fun facts, so let us know how you like that! If you want to see photos associated with this episode, take a look at our instagram and twitter
Sorry we're late! Moving is the worst, right? Hopefully we can make it up to you with the show's very first two part episode! Stephen had so much information on a guy named Jakob Fugger that he needed 2 parts. And Haley just wanted to make you feel bad about your current bank account balance by talking about all the things you can spend your money on in the richest city in the world.
Calling all trivia junkies - come learn about how a millionaire secluded herself in a hotel room for 24 years living off of crackers and Cuban cigars! Or win Jeopardy by knowing who it was that built New York City's public libraries - but you know, with drug money. Because opium is China's problem according to this dude.
Come take a listen to birthday boy Stephen talk about insane collections curated by every day enthusiasts. (We do get a little off track with personal collection anecdotes). Haley brings the amazing Ornamental Garden Hermit to the table, and yes, it is as weird as you think it is.
Join Haley in discovering the wonderful world of pineapples and their influence on wealthy society. People would do just about anything for a pineapple it seems. And listen to Stephen take us on a tour of the world's most expensive doll house. It's really a miniature, but let's not get into semantics.
