What I Had Heard Was

This week we welcome a very good friend of the show, Joe Higgens from Hallmark of Greatness. We discuss torture in the Middle Ages and what it entailed...or didn't.

From the heretic's fork to being eaten alive by insects, medieval torture methods prove that humans have always been brutal. Getting a confession wasn’t easy, and putting someone to death left room for lots of creativity. Or did it?
