I probably hadn't thought about that awful podcast in over a year. Went over to r/redscarepod out of curiosity, and this was there. I guess they've done a full reactionary heel turn, to literally no one's surprise.
Comments on this indicate it's real, and the commentators, as awful as fans of that podcast are, were dunking on her, too.
Shakespeare was not a noble and had friends like Kit Marlowe who came from even poorer families. For some people, it's a real problem that an ordinary person could have written something of worth, so they attribute it to some Earl or Viscount instead.
