Episode description
We’re talking to comedian, youtuber and one half of the Girl Historian podcast, Carley Thorne, about her obsession with the world’s most famous witch-hunt; THE SALEM WITCH TRIALS. Put on a cauldron of tea and get cozy because we’re talking about the origin of New England’s witch hysteria, American vs. European witches, deadly teenage gossip, political scapegoats, devil-dogs, the cartoon coven that caused bisexual awakening, not-so-just Puritan justice system, Salem tour guide wars and the origin of the term ‘hag-ridden’.
