Bad ElizabethBad Elizabeths throughout history Author: Jett Road Studios
Jett Road Studios presents "Bad Elizabeth" a comedic true crime podcast hosted by friends and former The Daily Show with Jon Stewart office mates, Gideon Evans and Kathy Egan-Taylor. The premise is as simple as it sounds - each episode explores the story of an Elizabeth (or any derivation of that name) who is notorious; be they a murderer, a fraudster, or just a complete a-hole. These women span both past and present, in pop culture, and world history. Gideon & Kathy guide you through these sordid and outrageous tales breezily, as if you were a guest at a fun cocktail party. Season 1 Elizabeths profiled include famed axe-wielder Lizzie Borden, imprisoned Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes, the ruthless Queen Elizabeth I, and the bloodthirsty Hungarian Countess, Elizabeth Bathory. Gideon and Kathy explore the misdeeds of the Elizabeths in question, and determine whether they deserve to be called "bad". Each episode also features a special guest, be it an expert, actor, author, or an actual living and breathing Elizabeth (a good one). Evans and Egan-Taylor dont harbor any resentment against Elizabeths - many of whom they hope to woo as listeners - however, there are a lot of them out there who are objectively shitty (we all know at least one).

Bad Elizabeth - 2026 Trailer
Episode 9
Tuesday, 3 February, 2026
The "Bad Elizabeth" podcast series with Gideon Evans and Kathy Egan has a rather simple concept, each episode is about a different person named Elizabeth (or variation of that name, like Liz, Betty, or Beth) who is notorious. These folks can be figures from history or true crime, or they might just be a big ol' a-hole.We are happy to report that more bad Elizabeths are headed your way shortly. We think you are going to love them...I mean, hate them. I mean, find their stories fascinating and entertaining.But before we turn to our new episodes in 2026, we thought it would be fun to make a trailer that looks back at the episodes we dropped in 2025. We had some really fun/scary/nasty Elizabeths like cancer-faker Elisabeth Finch, alleged axe wielder Lizzie Borden, bear baiting fangirl and monarch Queen Elizabeth I, Hungarian blood countess Erzsebet Bathory, Steve Jobs wannabe Elizabeth Holmes and many others.We also welcomed a gaggle of whip-smart, amazing special guests like Julie Delpy, E. Jean Carroll, Griffin Matthews, Charles Graeber, Ric Rebello, Alice Loxton, Michael Musto, and Jane Borden. Thanks to all of them for helping make our show awesome.We weren't able to include everyone in a two minute trailer, but we hope you like it, and it gets you excited for more episodes coming up in short order.Thanks also to others who helped put our show on the map likeThe Guardian who named it one of the "Best Podcasts of the Week" and Hysterical host Dan Taberksi who called our show "The funniest idea for a podcast, ever." And Apple who named it a podcast that "We're Loving" and Spotify who also promoted the series. We appreciate all of you and hope you will continue to listen and spread the word.And of course continue to like, follow, and review the show (I know some of you still haven't done it). It really helps so we'd love it if you give us a bunch of five star ratings and glowing reviews as we roll out more episodes. Enjoy!----------------------------------------Jett Road Studios - Website - YouTube - Instagram - SubstackBad Elizabeth - Instagram - YouTube - Substack
