    10/03/2026 | 48min
    On this week’s Aftermath REWIND, Rebecca speaks with Professor Lynn Wood Mollenauer about all things La Voisin and the Affair of the Poisons. Specializing in the history of France between the Renaissance and the Revolution, and having coined the phrase “Criminal Magical Underworld” herself, Professor Mollenauer lends fascinating new insight to this dark underworld in 17th century Paris. Afterward, Producer Clayton Early and Fact Checker Chris Smith stop by to revisit the verdict with Rebecca.

    REWIND - LA VOISIN: WHO IS TO BLAME?

    03/03/2026 | 59min
    Who’s to blame for the demise of La Voisin?
    On this week's REWIND, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) welcomes a dear friend (and potential real life witch!) Jen Curran to discuss the Affair of the Poisons which ultimately led to the execution of the French “wise woman” La Voisin. Are witches real or were they the product of the religious mystique at the time? Could the Criminal Magical Underworld of Paris take the fall for this one? And why is No Social Services for Women up on the Alarmist Board? Producer Clayton Early and Fact Checker Chris Smith help crack the case. Join our Patreon!

    THE ARREST OF ROSA PARKS: WHO IS TO BLAME?

    17/02/2026 | 51min
    Who’s to blame for the arrest of Rosa Parks?
    This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) discusses the cultural impact of the Montgomery Bus Boycott which was prompted by the arrest of civil rights icon Rosa Parks on December 1st, 1955. What started as a one day protest turned into 381 days of action. Though it was met with extreme violence, the boycott was hugely successful and resulted in a landmark legal ruling on bus segregation all the way from the Supreme Court the following year. Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early join the conversation. Up on the board: Jim Crow Laws, The City Officials of Montgomery and Culture of Hate.

    10/02/2026 | 33min
    New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca speaks with writer Ishbel Addyman about the legendary Cyrano de Bergerac and the play that continues to carry on his legacy. And much to our delight, it turns out the historical Cyrano de Bergerac is just as lovely and beloved as the fictional Cyrano. Which Ishbel shares in great detail from her research writing a biography about the man himself. Afterwards, Patreon subscribers can revisit the board with Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early. Not part of the Patreon family yet? Click below and join us!
