Episode 457: The Black Death Part II - Passport to Hell

On part two, we explore the ways in which war, superstition, and fear gripped Europe as the plague robbed the continent of human life. Then, we travel north through Italy to get a closer look at the disease as it moved like a piranha, spilling blood in the gutters of Messina, Florence, Venice, and beyond.

What does God's divine retribution look like? How far can rats jump? And what is the most elegant way to ditch your sickly family member? All answers will be revealed.
