Unicorn horns have been thought to have had healing and purifying powers for centuries. Kings and Queens of Europe would pay lofty prices to help them keep posions at bay and Vikings fron northern waters would make a fortune selling, well, wait and see what they were really selling.

Welcome to Episode 11 of the Warts n All podcast. When I see stories of the Titanic or the White Ship disasters, my thoughts go to the people in the water. How did their bodies try to overcome to cold, how did they respond, how did they die? This episode briefly explores the response to a sudden disastrous fall into freezing waters.

In 1820's Edinburgh, anatomists would pay well for bodies, wherever they might come from. Burke and Hare were not bodysnatchers but murderers who suffocated victims and sold them, still warm, to the doctors to learn their trade.

I really appreciate your support and now we are going again, I plan to send regular updates about the book and the podcast your way.
I was so thrilled to be able to chat to Melissa Ratliff for a new element of the Warts 'n' All podcast, the Warts 'n' All history club. We talked about getting into Titanic, the movies, the characters, the real people and the haunting moments when the calls for help stopped being broadcast. It was such a pleasure to listen to her. Enthusiasm is infectious and it was a treat to hear her enthusiasm.
I aksed Melissa what she would bring along to a party if we could all get together. She told us about one of her favourite podcasts called The Dollop, and also the book on Lightoller: Lights, The Odyssey of CH Lightoller by Patrick Stenson, renamed Titanic Voyager when Titanic the film was released in 1997.
You can hear Melissa's podcast God's Favorites, a history podcast on the big podcast outlets and you can find her telling us shorter history snippets @melissafairlady on TikTok and over on YouTube. -

In the 17th century, long before anaesthesia and antiseptics, King Louis XIV of France pulled down his breeches and underwent surgery on a painful anal fistula. The surgery was a success and elevated surgeons in the minds of the French people and beyond.
It became fashionable in court to sport a bum abscess operation and even a song, still famous the world over today, became popular to commemorate the cutting of the KIng's rear end.

In Januray 1661 three bodies were hanging in chains on the gallows at Tyburn. All three were long since dead and buried but had been dug up for a posthumous execution in revenge for the killing of the king. If thats not strange enough, Oliver Cromwell's head then had another three hundred years of being passed about the place.

Welcome to Warts 'n' All, the new podcast from Dr Suzie Edge. Here we are all about human bodies and how we've treated them in life and in death (but mostly in death).
Don't Lick The Rat is a coffin opening story with an extra sting in the rat's tail. Long ago, William Longspee had a ratty friend come to dinner in his vault under Salisbury Cathedral. The rat succumbed to poison, but in their defence, the pair said they had heard the Cathedral Spire was a fine place to visit.
