This season, Malcolm’s obsessed with experiments – natural experiments, scientific experiments, thought experiments. In this episode, Revisionist History explores a category of privilege that’s often ignored: age. And he winds up pointing the finger of blame quite firmly in his own direction.

Bad Women: The Blackout Ripper

Here’s a preview of Bad Women: The Blackout Ripper. Over a single week in February 1942, a sadistic serial killer stalked London’s bomb-ravaged streets – hunting for victims in the bars and clubs of the city’s West End theater district. In his cruelty and depravity, he was immediately likened to Jack the Ripper. Using new research from police files, court transcripts and exhaustive genealogical study, Hallie Rubenhold reconstructs the lives of the women he attacked and murdered – women who were dismissed for working in the sex trade, or for choosing to live otherwise independent lives. She examines what placed these women at the margins of society and why the war years were perilous for so many women.
