Black Death: Five Strangest Cures

Available for over a year

It was a plague like no other. It provoked strange cures like no other. Anthony Delaney takes Maddy Pelling in search of the oddest cures concocted in the face of the Black Death, busting a few myth along the way (sorry Plague Doctor, but you're in the wrong century). Edited by Max Carrey. Produced by Freddy Chick. Senior Producer is Charlotte Long. All music from Epidemic Sounds. After Dark: Myths, Misdeeds & the Paranormal is a History Hit podcast.
