b"Our guest today is Ross, who is a Warden at The Tower of London. This episode is nothing short of a fascinating (and absolutely bonkers) history lesson that involves elephants drinking wine, Anne Boleyn's ghost, William the Bastard aka Conqueror, and a bloke called Colonel Blood who tried to steal the Crown Jewels and ended up being the King's best mate. Plus, we learn what is the actual point of a Beefeater.\\nWe're at the Clapham Grand with Things People Did every month, get your tickets here: https://linktr.ee/thingspeopledopod\\nIf you would like to be a guest on the show, click here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rfSo3PVJgtBRZHCCAZndem-iyy2EdvGcEYDqycsM2aQ/viewform\\nTo get ad-free and longer episodes on Apple, hit the 'grow the show' button or click: https://apple.co/3sAX0xR\\nOn Spotify you can subscribe for \\xa31 a week by clicking this link: https://anchor.fm/thingspeopledo\\nTo become an official sponsor, go to Patreon.com/thingspeopledo\\nTo grow the show on socials, look for @thingspeoplepod on Instagram, Twitter and Tiktok\\nSend us your ideas for the show, and questions for Joe and Tom to joe@crowdnetwork.co.uk\\nMusic courtesy of BMG Production Music\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
