Ep.62 – Alice Kyteler (Litha) - Pipe Dildo

True Crime Trine

Join us this week for some witchy bullshit! Hannah takes us way way way back to the late 1200s early 1300s for the story of Alice Kyteler, the first recorded person condemned for witchcraft in Ireland. We also meet a total douchebag, the Bishop of Ossory, Richard de Ledrede. Who could be considered Alice’s antagonist. Alice was able to make her escape from Kilkenny, Ireland but sadly her maidservant Petronilla was left behind to face torture and being burned at the stake. Hannah tells us about arsenic poisoning and how it impacts pyruvate dehydrogenase. Side tracks include: horrible worms, pipe dildos (broomsticks), 1 in 3 women want a penis, fun stuff to do in Kilkenny, and so much more. For astrology, the Sun enters Cancer and Venus enters Gemini, plus a sexy sextile and a trine. Hannah tells us about Litha, more commonly referred to as the Summer Solstice.
