Hi friends, happy Thursday!

Welcome to the Dark History podcast. We’ve talked about William Hearst on here before. He is one of the OG Nepo Babies. On top of being born into wealth, he pretty much ran the newspaper industry so he was rolling in it. And one of the big things he spent his cashola on was his house, nay his CASTLE. Oh yeah. In today’s episode, we are talking about Hearst Castle. No surprise here, but the story behind a castle in California is juicy and I have been dying to share this one with you all. Get ready to hear all about this nepo baby’s pimped-out crib.

I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History.

    She said Huffenpuff and I died. 💀 Love you Bailey!
  • Joan is really putting on the Ritz today…great job Bailey.🖤🇨🇦
  • @softkitty775
    My grandfather was often Mrs.Hearst driver in NY. He said she was always respectful and kind to him, making sure he was taken care of properly where ever he took her

    I love how grateful bailey’s subscribers are, always thanking her for an upload. So wholesome and supportive 🥹🖤
  • I live so close to the castle and people have been taking trips to it and talking about it my entire life, but i still know nothing about it or the guy. Thank you Bailey for finally answering my questions and educating all of us. You do what the public school system has failed to do.
  • I just finished watching all of Baileys videos now I don’t know what to do with my life…. Thanks for posting today ❤️❤️❤️❤️ we must protect Bailey at all cost 🥹🥹
  • @1975disc
    as a history teacher, i appreciate how much fun you have with the pod! thank u for getting so many people engaged with the past 🖤
  • It's an honor to listen to Bailey. She's the only youtube podcast person that never goes dry with things to talk about ❤😅 and always keeping it saucy! For so many years and still posts multiple times a week, not like most who go down to 1 a week or completely switch up the app. Like moving to Amazon music podcasts.
  • No matter how many times I watch Dark History, I can't appreciate Joan Crowford enough... because another Joan gives me life
  • @meleahlacey
    9:34 William sending those chamber pots to his professors is giving Queen Elizabeth I, making her suitors eat gingerbread men decorated to look like themselves (Thank you to your “A Very Krampus Christmas” Dark History!)
  • The story of the Hearst family and their castle is a fascinating (and troubling) piece of history that sheds light on the complexities of wealth and power in America.
  • @Silver-kw7eq
    FUN FACT! what Bailey was saying had me so reminded of the great Gatsby. Then she said it! So I looked it up and “the main inspiration for jay gatsby home was a beacon tower, a gilded age mansion on sand point that was once once by William Randolph Hearst” !!! Super cool 😅
  • @yoquendo984
    Yay 🤗 Dark History 🤩I clicked so fast!!! I would have been here sooner but the ad stopped me at the door😂
  • Bailey the only you tuber that gets a like before I even start the video 💕 Edit: growing up in the East San Francisco Bay Area I am super familiar with the Hearst Family, especially Patty and the whole ordeal in Berkeley... crazy stuff
  • @murderkitten
    My favorite/scariest memory of visiting Hearst Castle is being chased by the elephant seals that live nearby when I walked too close to a pup and momma didn't like it.
