  • Episode 150 - 'Mignonette': A Harrowing Story Of Cannibalism At Sea
    Again and again, in desperate times throughout history, people have turned to desperate measures and committed what many societies consider to be the worst of all human sins — cannibalism. Members of the Donner Party infamously resorted to cannibalism to survive when they became stranded in the Sierra Nevadas in the 1840s, as did survivors of the Andes Flight Disaster in 1972. At sea, castaway sailors often followed a long-held tradition known as the "custom of the sea," an implicit agreement that, if they were stranded, sailors would draw lots to pick who would be killed — and eaten. But the story of cannibalism involving a 19th-century ship called the Mignonette is a bit different.  https://allthatsinteresting.com/history-uncovered/mignonette Learn more about your ad choices.

Over the centuries, numerous vessels have been found floating on the high seas without a crew — here are some of the most disturbing cases. https://allthatsinteresting.com/ghost-ships Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Episode 147 - The Cadaver Synod: When A Medieval Pope Put His Predecessor's Corpse On Trial
    The Catholic Church has put many people on trial, including Galileo, Joan of Arc, and Martin Luther. But the strangest trial in church history took place in the ninth century.
