Episode description

The Facts: First, we delve into the phenomenon of poverty parties during the Gilded Age in America, where wealthy elites would throw extravagant parties themed around poverty and destitution.
Next, we turn to the Cadaver Synod, a bizarre event that took place in 9th century Rome. This macabre spectacle involved the exhumation of the corpse of a deceased pope and the posthumous trial and condemnation of his remains.
