(...and in a happy coincidence, I have an indirect interest as Not Just the Tudors is one of two History Hit podcasts for which my daughter is audio editor - come for the witch chat, stay for the excellent sound design!)
Discussion based on the new book (also just out) by Claire and co-author Zoe Venditozzi "How to Kill a Witch: A Guide for the Patriarchy" and their own "Witches of Scotland" podcast.
