246: Cleopatra: "They knew a baddie when they saw one."

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Cleopatra: "They knew a baddie when they saw one."

It's easy to get your kicks in 2026 when the hyper-fixation of Laura Marie's childhood is the focus of the episode! Cleopatra by Saara El Arifi takes all of the well known highlights of the Queen's life and adds in a supernatural element that brings a complexity to a character that is known for so many things. Goddess reincarnated, Queen, mother, and lover Cleopatra wore all these titles and more during her reign as Egypt's Pharaoh. Join Laura Marie and Jessica Marie as they move through history in the shadows of these figures that were larger than life and bigger than divinity for a time.
