You know, if 23 00:01:53,125 --> 00:01:55,765 Speaker 1: think of previous episodes of cadaver Gals, they're doing the 24 00:01:55,845 --> 00:01:58,805 Speaker 1: rat torture in the Netherlands or whatever. So let's like 25 00:01:58,885 --> 00:02:01,525 Speaker 1: be in that period. You know, we're like they're doing 26 00:02:01,525 --> 00:02:05,085 Speaker 1: gross shit. Anyway, So this is about Marco Antonio bragged 27 00:02:05,245 --> 00:02:09,045 Speaker 1: in he was a celebrated Venetian war commander and he 28 00:02:09,205 --> 00:02:11,405 Speaker 1: was like, you know, they called him like a sexy 29 00:02:11,565 --> 00:02:14,525 Speaker 1: late forty something with as a historians call it, with 30 00:02:14,565 --> 00:02:18,485 Speaker 1: a heavy beard. So you know, I'll never forget. I 31 00:02:18,525 --> 00:02:21,925 Speaker 1: was traveling with my brother once and I walked by 32 00:02:21,965 --> 00:02:23,525 Speaker 1: this guy on a plane and I looked at my 33 00:02:23,565 --> 00:02:25,645 Speaker 1: brother and I go, that guy's hot. And my brother 34 00:02:25,725 --> 00:02:28,805 Speaker 1: looked at me pain in his eyes, and he goes, damn, 35 00:02:29,565 --> 00:02:31,885 Speaker 1: you really do have daddy issues, because the guy was like, 36 00:02:32,285 --> 00:02:36,765 Speaker 1: you know, adapt and rumble daddy. Yeah, clearly grizzly beard whatever. 37 00:02:38,005 --> 00:02:41,845 Speaker 1: So yeah, i'd probably be into this Venetian commander. Yeah, 38 00:02:41,925 --> 00:02:44,445 Speaker 1: you probably would be. I actually know you probably want 39 00:02:44,445 --> 00:02:46,525 Speaker 1: it because he was like a heavy patriot and he 40 00:02:46,605 --> 00:02:48,845 Speaker 1: like was took things very like seriously, and he was 41 00:02:48,925 --> 00:02:52,205 Speaker 1: very grave, as they say back then. So I don't know, 42 00:02:52,205 --> 00:02:53,725 Speaker 1: I don't think he'd be that much fun though he 43 00:02:53,725 --> 00:02:57,285 Speaker 1: could be kind of the the push to your pool 44 00:02:57,405 --> 00:03:01,205 Speaker 1: or the whatever, the opposite sort of not Yeah. I 45 00:03:01,245 --> 00:03:03,645 Speaker 1: mean also he was a war commander, he was a senator. 46 00:03:03,845 --> 00:03:06,565 Speaker 1: He was also a lawyer. Soup were well rounded. Good 47 00:03:06,565 --> 00:03:09,925 Speaker 1: for him, so ambitious, Yeah, look at him go though 48 00:03:09,925 --> 00:03:12,565 Speaker 1: maybe jobs were easier back then. I don't know. So 49 00:03:12,645 --> 00:03:15,165 Speaker 1: at this time, in like fifteen seventy one when this 50 00:03:15,405 --> 00:03:18,605 Speaker 1: story is set, there was a big gass conflict amongst 51 00:03:18,725 --> 00:03:23,045 Speaker 1: the European Christian powers and then the Muslim Ottoman Empire, 52 00:03:23,445 --> 00:03:27,165 Speaker 1: Like the Ottoman Empire was rapidly expanding their empire, you know, 53 00:03:27,325 --> 00:03:30,445 Speaker 1: and there's lots of battles for control at this time 54 00:03:30,485 --> 00:03:33,805 Speaker 1: of the Mediterranean Sea. They're like everybody wants some of 55 00:03:33,845 --> 00:03:37,685 Speaker 1: that sea water, right, and so the Republic of Venice 56 00:03:37,765 --> 00:03:41,805 Speaker 1: controlled Cyprus, and the Ottomans were determined to take it 57 00:03:41,885 --> 00:03:44,605 Speaker 1: over so that they could be the ultimate rulers of 58 00:03:44,645 --> 00:03:46,325 Speaker 1: the sea. I mean, that's what I'm always saying, you 59 00:03:46,325 --> 00:03:51,525 Speaker 1: gotta get Cyprus. So there was like this big Ottoman army. 60 00:03:51,605 --> 00:03:56,005 Speaker 1: It was under the mega Christian hater Lala Mustafa Pasha. 61 00:03:56,525 --> 00:04:00,805 Speaker 1: And what they did Lala Mustafa Pasha. I mean Pasha's 62 00:04:00,845 --> 00:04:02,605 Speaker 1: is the name of Like it's just like the title 63 00:04:02,645 --> 00:04:05,325 Speaker 1: of like a commander. I'm sorry, but his first name 64 00:04:05,645 --> 00:04:10,045 Speaker 1: La La Yeah, I mean maybe an Ottoman that's pronounced differently, 65 00:04:10,165 --> 00:04:12,885 Speaker 1: but I love it. Ottoman's like a dead language, so 66 00:04:12,925 --> 00:04:15,205 Speaker 1: I couldn't. I wouldn't know. Actually, I don't know even 67 00:04:15,205 --> 00:04:18,005 Speaker 1: know if they're speaking Ottoman at this point, um fact 68 00:04:18,085 --> 00:04:21,845 Speaker 1: check us. I don't know. Okay, anyway, so what they did, 69 00:04:21,925 --> 00:04:24,325 Speaker 1: They're like, okay, we're gonna go attack the capital of Cyprus. 70 00:04:24,405 --> 00:04:27,125 Speaker 1: And they killed this other Venetian war commander and they 71 00:04:27,165 --> 00:04:29,405 Speaker 1: sent his head, that guy's head over to Bragg and 72 00:04:29,445 --> 00:04:33,765 Speaker 1: then being like we got your boy.

But anyway, so they're gonna 164 00:09:12,525 --> 00:09:15,805 Speaker 1: go surrender, and the Pasha's like, yeah, bro, that's chill. 165 00:09:16,485 --> 00:09:18,845 Speaker 1: But then Braggedon goes over, like he actually leaves the 166 00:09:18,845 --> 00:09:21,005 Speaker 1: city with his crew of boys. He's like three hundred 167 00:09:21,045 --> 00:09:23,765 Speaker 1: soldiers with him, and they're going up to Mustafa Pasha's 168 00:09:23,765 --> 00:09:26,965 Speaker 1: tent and to give him to the officially surrender. And 169 00:09:27,005 --> 00:09:28,925 Speaker 1: also I thought this was really funny to like literally 170 00:09:28,965 --> 00:09:31,405 Speaker 1: give him the keys to the city, you know, just 171 00:09:31,445 --> 00:09:34,365 Speaker 1: like here's the gate, you know, even though they had 172 00:09:34,365 --> 00:09:35,845 Speaker 1: blown through the walls, so I don't really feel like 173 00:09:35,885 --> 00:09:38,325 Speaker 1: they needed as much. They could only put their own 174 00:09:38,365 --> 00:09:41,645 Speaker 1: locks on. You know. It's like their thing loved symbolism. 175 00:09:41,725 --> 00:09:44,205 Speaker 1: I was going to say, it's a metaphor exactly, and 176 00:09:44,245 --> 00:09:47,445 Speaker 1: they loved giving objects in order and like having the 177 00:09:47,445 --> 00:09:50,445 Speaker 1: objects have meaning. Yeah, so like the literal keys to 178 00:09:50,485 --> 00:09:53,565 Speaker 1: the city. So at first it seems like chill, Like 179 00:09:53,845 --> 00:09:56,845 Speaker 1: Braggedon goes in there, and he like kisses Mustafa's ring 180 00:09:56,885 --> 00:09:59,285 Speaker 1: and stuff, which is probably like degrading to him or whatever, 181 00:09:59,365 --> 00:10:02,005 Speaker 1: but he did it. But then it seems quite civil. 182 00:10:02,045 --> 00:10:04,205 Speaker 1: But then the meeting just goes off the fucking rails, 183 00:10:04,525 --> 00:10:06,805 Speaker 1: like Mustapha's about to get super down and dirty. It's 184 00:10:06,845 --> 00:10:08,645 Speaker 1: gonna be like and no one really knows why he 185 00:10:08,685 --> 00:10:10,885 Speaker 1: did it. It might because he was like annoyed at 186 00:10:10,925 --> 00:10:14,005 Speaker 1: Braggaden because Braggedden could have like surrendered earlier and then 187 00:10:14,045 --> 00:10:16,645 Speaker 1: the Ottomans wouldn't have lost as many people as they did. 188 00:10:16,765 --> 00:10:19,005 Speaker 1: And like also they're like maybe Braggaden might have killed 189 00:10:19,005 --> 00:10:23,565 Speaker 1: some like Muslim prisoners after they had already signed the surrender, 190 00:10:23,685 --> 00:10:26,445 Speaker 1: so I d K. But he's the Pasha is really mad, 191 00:10:26,805 --> 00:10:29,725 Speaker 1: and first thing that he does he orders his soldiers 192 00:10:29,765 --> 00:10:32,445 Speaker 1: to go and kill all of Braggaden's boys who he 193 00:10:32,485 --> 00:10:34,765 Speaker 1: had brought with him, like those three hundred dudes. So 194 00:10:34,805 --> 00:10:36,725 Speaker 1: what they do. They go out there, they behead all 195 00:10:36,765 --> 00:10:40,125 Speaker 1: these dudes, all of Braggaden's dudes, and Braggaden's like, what 196 00:10:40,165 --> 00:10:42,325 Speaker 1: the fuck's happening, and they're like, hey, bro, we fucking 197 00:10:42,325 --> 00:10:44,285 Speaker 1: hate your guts. And what they do with bragged In 198 00:10:44,605 --> 00:10:46,565 Speaker 1: is instead of killing him. Right, then they're like, hey, 199 00:10:46,645 --> 00:10:48,485 Speaker 1: let's have some fun with it. With what they do 200 00:10:48,885 --> 00:10:52,165 Speaker 1: is they cut off his ears and his nose. Oh okay, 201 00:10:52,325 --> 00:10:55,365 Speaker 1: which is double insulting because apparently that's a punishment for 202 00:10:55,445 --> 00:10:59,285 Speaker 1: like a common criminal. Oh heaven forbid. And he's a 203 00:10:59,325 --> 00:11:02,645 Speaker 1: fancy boy. He's got a heavy beard and a grave expression. 204 00:11:03,005 --> 00:11:06,285 Speaker 1: He wants the fancy punishment, not the commonish. Yeah, and 205 00:11:06,325 --> 00:11:08,005 Speaker 1: that's what he got. But they beheaded all of his 206 00:11:08,045 --> 00:11:09,925 Speaker 1: boys who had brought with him, and then they stacked 207 00:11:10,005 --> 00:11:12,725 Speaker 1: up their heads outside of the Pasha's tent. So a 208 00:11:12,805 --> 00:11:16,565 Speaker 1: cool like insider Instagram, you know style idea is just 209 00:11:16,605 --> 00:11:19,005 Speaker 1: like a head mural. Yeah, like a head mural. Yeah. 210 00:11:19,005 --> 00:11:21,045 Speaker 1: It was really beautiful, you know, a very nice, very 211 00:11:21,125 --> 00:11:24,885 Speaker 1: good touch. Um. And then what they do after they 212 00:11:24,925 --> 00:11:29,805 Speaker 1: cut off Braggedon's ears and nose, which out like your 213 00:11:29,885 --> 00:11:33,885 Speaker 1: nose out as you probably. I just feel like, does 214 00:11:33,925 --> 00:11:35,805 Speaker 1: your brain lake out of your face if you cut 215 00:11:35,845 --> 00:11:38,085 Speaker 1: your nose off? Probably not, that's not what your brain is, 216 00:11:38,085 --> 00:11:40,325 Speaker 1: but it just I feel like it holds things together. Right. 217 00:11:40,565 --> 00:11:44,245 Speaker 1: People can be of your face. People can be noseless though, 218 00:11:44,285 --> 00:11:47,565 Speaker 1: because like people who had really bad syphilis back in 219 00:11:47,605 --> 00:11:51,365 Speaker 1: the day also would lose their noses and they were fine, 220 00:11:51,365 --> 00:11:53,445 Speaker 1: and they would actually walk around with gold noses. We've 221 00:11:53,445 --> 00:11:56,165 Speaker 1: talked about this. Oh oh yeah, that's right. They take 222 00:11:56,405 --> 00:11:59,565 Speaker 1: breaky right exactly. I think that's what it was. I 223 00:11:59,605 --> 00:12:02,525 Speaker 1: don't think it's necessarily healthy to be without a nose, 224 00:12:02,765 --> 00:12:07,005 Speaker 1: but it is possible, probably not long term, though, Gobby. 225 00:12:07,085 --> 00:12:10,725 Speaker 1: We are wondering if it's just the tippity whippity or 226 00:12:11,045 --> 00:12:13,485 Speaker 1: just like it, you know, because there's like cartilage on 227 00:12:13,525 --> 00:12:17,005 Speaker 1: the end, but then there's like bone. So yeah, I 228 00:12:17,005 --> 00:12:19,565 Speaker 1: don't I don't know how much of the nose it was. Okay, 229 00:12:19,925 --> 00:12:22,965 Speaker 1: all right, that's okay, you know, because let's just say 230 00:12:23,005 --> 00:12:27,365 Speaker 1: that the Ottoman and the Venetian sources greatly differ on 231 00:12:27,445 --> 00:12:30,645 Speaker 1: what happened, so they might have had different parts of 232 00:12:30,685 --> 00:12:34,765 Speaker 1: the nose defined. I don't know. But anyway, after they 233 00:12:34,805 --> 00:12:36,965 Speaker 1: do that to him, they're like, hey, let's him humiliate 234 00:12:37,005 --> 00:12:39,925 Speaker 1: you more. So what they do is they literally turn 235 00:12:39,965 --> 00:12:42,525 Speaker 1: them into an ass. They like, they give him one 236 00:12:42,525 --> 00:12:45,405 Speaker 1: of those like bridles that like donkeys and mules have, 237 00:12:45,725 --> 00:12:47,565 Speaker 1: and then they put like two buckets on the side 238 00:12:47,605 --> 00:12:49,165 Speaker 1: of it filled with dirt and he has to go 239 00:12:49,205 --> 00:12:53,005 Speaker 1: around like the Ottoman encampment and everyone and look at this. 240 00:12:53,085 --> 00:12:55,125 Speaker 1: They all yell at him, being like ha ha, you 241 00:12:55,205 --> 00:12:57,765 Speaker 1: have to convert to Islam, and he's like, I will 242 00:12:57,845 --> 00:13:01,565 Speaker 1: not convert to Islam. Torture my body but not my soul. 243 00:13:02,045 --> 00:13:06,445 Speaker 1: Oh my god, mortifying for him, all pourable, boy, poor boy. 244 00:13:06,725 --> 00:13:09,485 Speaker 1: Also like he can't hear at this point, his nose 245 00:13:09,685 --> 00:13:12,085 Speaker 1: is off well, so when they cut off his ear holes, 246 00:13:12,285 --> 00:13:14,605 Speaker 1: he can still Yeah, he could still hear, just like 247 00:13:14,725 --> 00:13:17,485 Speaker 1: it's probably hearing maybe hurts a little better or something. 248 00:13:18,165 --> 00:13:20,285 Speaker 1: They didn't like scoop it out, you know how you 249 00:13:20,845 --> 00:13:25,125 Speaker 1: oh what na nice? That's nasty. Also, I will say 250 00:13:25,165 --> 00:13:27,445 Speaker 1: when you said turned him into an ass, I honestly, 251 00:13:27,565 --> 00:13:31,165 Speaker 1: Gabby thought you chose another magical And I was about 252 00:13:31,165 --> 00:13:35,645 Speaker 1: to be like, that's not real. So he's being paraded 253 00:13:35,645 --> 00:13:37,765 Speaker 1: around and stuff, and then every time he passes by 254 00:13:37,925 --> 00:13:40,885 Speaker 1: Mustafa Pasha's tent he has to like prostrate himself and 255 00:13:40,965 --> 00:13:44,645 Speaker 1: kiss the ground and how embarrassing. And then he has 256 00:13:44,645 --> 00:13:46,445 Speaker 1: to eat some of the dirt that's in his buckets, 257 00:13:46,525 --> 00:13:48,285 Speaker 1: which you know could be nice because it takes less 258 00:13:48,285 --> 00:13:50,205 Speaker 1: weight off your shoulders. You just eat the dirt. Um, 259 00:13:50,925 --> 00:13:54,125 Speaker 1: But Meanwhile, you know, they've loaded all these like Christians 260 00:13:54,245 --> 00:13:57,365 Speaker 1: and the Venetian people onto boats and they're about to 261 00:13:57,445 --> 00:14:00,405 Speaker 1: like scedaddle to crete and they don't really know what's 262 00:14:00,445 --> 00:14:03,565 Speaker 1: going on. But then at this point the Ottoman soldiers 263 00:14:03,605 --> 00:14:05,805 Speaker 1: come over and like start killing all of them on 264 00:14:05,845 --> 00:14:08,685 Speaker 1: the boats, and the ones they don't kill, they're like, hey, 265 00:14:08,765 --> 00:14:10,645 Speaker 1: we we'll just enslave you. And then they starting and 266 00:14:10,685 --> 00:14:12,605 Speaker 1: they hang them up from chains and kind of thing 267 00:14:12,725 --> 00:14:16,165 Speaker 1: like the like the prison part of their boats. Jail 268 00:14:16,485 --> 00:14:20,125 Speaker 1: jail boat, your boat jail, got it. And then they're like, okay, 269 00:14:20,205 --> 00:14:22,445 Speaker 1: bragged in, let's go do something else fun. This is 270 00:14:22,445 --> 00:14:24,925 Speaker 1: like he has a cool like torture itinerary. So after 271 00:14:24,925 --> 00:14:27,405 Speaker 1: he's going in like the Ottoman encampment, they bring him 272 00:14:27,445 --> 00:14:30,005 Speaker 1: over to the boats and what they do is they 273 00:14:30,485 --> 00:14:33,565 Speaker 1: chain him up to like the mast head of the boat, 274 00:14:33,725 --> 00:14:36,205 Speaker 1: you know, kind of like a sexy mermaid or whatever. 275 00:14:36,365 --> 00:14:38,845 Speaker 1: And then after that they get bored of that, I guess, 276 00:14:38,845 --> 00:14:40,565 Speaker 1: so they like chain him to a chair with a 277 00:14:40,605 --> 00:14:43,285 Speaker 1: string on him and they keep dunking him in the sea, 278 00:14:43,445 --> 00:14:45,365 Speaker 1: and then you know, you get bored of that, so 279 00:14:45,445 --> 00:14:47,565 Speaker 1: you have to do something else. So then he they 280 00:14:47,605 --> 00:14:50,125 Speaker 1: were like, okay, well we're gonna do now. We're gonna 281 00:14:50,165 --> 00:14:54,445 Speaker 1: take you to the town's square. And at this point, 282 00:14:54,485 --> 00:14:56,405 Speaker 1: you know, he's not doing so well, like the dunk 283 00:14:56,485 --> 00:15:01,085 Speaker 1: the sea dunking dragged around the mutilation, he's not feeling 284 00:15:01,125 --> 00:15:03,765 Speaker 1: that great. So they take him to the town square 285 00:15:03,805 --> 00:15:06,565 Speaker 1: and they had already converted the church into a mosque, 286 00:15:06,605 --> 00:15:10,925 Speaker 1: so swift. And they find a butcher and they're like, hey, butcher, 287 00:15:11,045 --> 00:15:14,285 Speaker 1: sharpen your knives. We got a task for you. And 288 00:15:14,285 --> 00:15:16,165 Speaker 1: he's like, okay, let me sharpen them up. And there 289 00:15:16,165 --> 00:15:19,565 Speaker 1: it's like a like a whipping post that, you know, 290 00:15:19,805 --> 00:15:22,205 Speaker 1: just like a quaint whipping post in the middle of 291 00:15:22,205 --> 00:15:24,285 Speaker 1: the square. I guess you just used to have, you know, 292 00:15:24,365 --> 00:15:27,085 Speaker 1: just like a public whipping you know, fun funding game 293 00:15:27,125 --> 00:15:29,045 Speaker 1: sort of thing. But they tie him to that, but 294 00:15:29,085 --> 00:15:31,645 Speaker 1: they tie him to that with his feet first, so 295 00:15:31,685 --> 00:15:34,405 Speaker 1: he's hanging upside down and they get the butcher to 296 00:15:34,405 --> 00:15:36,325 Speaker 1: come over and they're like, okay, now, flay the funk 297 00:15:36,325 --> 00:15:40,365 Speaker 1: out of this dude. So they just he then he 298 00:15:40,405 --> 00:15:44,725 Speaker 1: takes his knife and he starts skinning him. Okay, braggad in. 299 00:15:45,085 --> 00:15:50,045 Speaker 1: The butcher does no, no, no, yes, he does. Wait 300 00:15:50,085 --> 00:15:52,685 Speaker 1: when you say skinning, do you mean like skinning like 301 00:15:52,885 --> 00:15:55,645 Speaker 1: while like while he's being flogged, or do you mean 302 00:15:55,805 --> 00:15:58,805 Speaker 1: skinning as in grabbing the knife and actually skinning him 303 00:15:59,005 --> 00:16:01,085 Speaker 1: grabbing the knife and actually skinning him. I don't know 304 00:16:01,125 --> 00:16:02,805 Speaker 1: if they actually whipped him on the whipping post. That 305 00:16:02,885 --> 00:16:04,125 Speaker 1: was just sort of the thing that they used to 306 00:16:04,165 --> 00:16:10,965 Speaker 1: hang all inclusive torture post. So yeah, no, they literally 307 00:16:11,045 --> 00:16:13,405 Speaker 1: skin him, starting with his feet. But they also are like, 308 00:16:13,485 --> 00:16:15,005 Speaker 1: hey man, we want you to do a good job 309 00:16:15,085 --> 00:16:17,565 Speaker 1: skinning him so we can have like the full skin 310 00:16:17,845 --> 00:16:20,045 Speaker 1: sort of like intact, like not strips, you know, we 311 00:16:20,045 --> 00:16:23,685 Speaker 1: want like big sections of the dude.

Something fun and flirty? 313 00:16:26,005 --> 00:16:28,645 Speaker 1: But reports do say that this point bragged in does 314 00:16:28,765 --> 00:16:32,325 Speaker 1: die um And they say before they reached his navel, 315 00:16:33,325 --> 00:16:36,605 Speaker 1: which begs the question would you rather be skinned feet 316 00:16:36,685 --> 00:16:39,565 Speaker 1: first or head first? That begs the question. It begs 317 00:16:39,725 --> 00:16:44,845 Speaker 1: the question begging. Yeah, I mean I think feet first 318 00:16:44,925 --> 00:16:49,045 Speaker 1: is probably best. Yeah, same, So anyway isn't easy? Would 319 00:16:49,085 --> 00:16:55,085 Speaker 1: you rather? Okay? Is it? It's an easy one?

Probably, Okay, 321 00:16:58,525 --> 00:17:01,085 Speaker 1: So what do you know what they did with the skin. 322 00:17:01,605 --> 00:17:04,245 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. So the next day they have the skin 323 00:17:04,405 --> 00:17:06,485 Speaker 1: and what they do is they stuff it full of 324 00:17:06,525 --> 00:17:09,285 Speaker 1: straw and they sew it back together, so he's like 325 00:17:09,285 --> 00:17:12,245 Speaker 1: a little skin suit straw man. And then they put 326 00:17:12,285 --> 00:17:14,685 Speaker 1: the straw man on top of a cow. How embarrassing. 327 00:17:14,765 --> 00:17:16,645 Speaker 1: And then they put his little outfit on, his little 328 00:17:16,725 --> 00:17:20,445 Speaker 1: Venetian Republic senator outfit on, and the outfit included a 329 00:17:20,485 --> 00:17:27,205 Speaker 1: little parasol apparently, and then they like, this actually happened 330 00:17:27,205 --> 00:17:29,685 Speaker 1: in his history. Yes, this actually happened. And then they 331 00:17:29,685 --> 00:17:31,845 Speaker 1: put them on, and then they take the cow and 332 00:17:31,885 --> 00:17:35,565 Speaker 1: they paraded around like the city being like we won. Anyway. 333 00:17:36,005 --> 00:17:38,805 Speaker 1: After they do that, eventually the Ottomans set out to 334 00:17:38,845 --> 00:17:40,605 Speaker 1: see to go back to the Golden Horn, to go 335 00:17:40,605 --> 00:17:43,165 Speaker 1: back to Constantinople or a stumble whatever it's called at 336 00:17:43,165 --> 00:17:48,245 Speaker 1: this point, and they hang his skin up on their 337 00:17:48,325 --> 00:17:51,365 Speaker 1: like flag posts, so they kind of like hang up 338 00:17:51,445 --> 00:17:55,285 Speaker 1: little straw skin suit man on as like a flag 339 00:17:55,445 --> 00:17:59,645 Speaker 1: on their boat. That's disgusting. I mean, all of this 340 00:17:59,725 --> 00:18:04,005 Speaker 1: is disgusting, but yes, yes, so they do that. Love 341 00:18:04,045 --> 00:18:06,085 Speaker 1: to visualize it, I imagine. I I wonder if there's 342 00:18:06,125 --> 00:18:08,485 Speaker 1: like those few like Ottoman soldiers who were like, bro, 343 00:18:08,605 --> 00:18:10,285 Speaker 1: this is like kind of gross, Like do we have 344 00:18:10,365 --> 00:18:12,605 Speaker 1: to have his little skin suits flapping in the wind, 345 00:18:12,645 --> 00:18:17,005 Speaker 1: Like imagine the smell the sound of the skin flapping 346 00:18:17,125 --> 00:18:19,605 Speaker 1: the well, the smell is probably fine because at this 347 00:18:19,645 --> 00:18:22,005 Speaker 1: point in the sun, like his skin is like leathering, 348 00:18:22,325 --> 00:18:24,805 Speaker 1: so tan and stuff. So it's like that part like 349 00:18:24,845 --> 00:18:29,365 Speaker 1: the body would yeah, and a nice like leather bound 350 00:18:29,445 --> 00:18:35,885 Speaker 1: books all a like anchor man. Anyway, he didn't get 351 00:18:35,925 --> 00:18:39,005 Speaker 1: a burial, did he. No, I don't know what happened 352 00:18:39,005 --> 00:18:41,405 Speaker 1: to the body. But it's kind of funny as they 353 00:18:41,405 --> 00:18:44,165 Speaker 1: were leaving. Not funny, it's just kind of like this 354 00:18:44,765 --> 00:18:47,245 Speaker 1: them killing Braggaden was supposed to be like Haha, we're 355 00:18:47,285 --> 00:18:49,765 Speaker 1: so victorious, but actually that is kind of what united 356 00:18:49,805 --> 00:18:51,605 Speaker 1: the Christian powers because you know, they were like in 357 00:18:51,725 --> 00:18:54,725 Speaker 1: fighting and shit, but they're literally like some of the 358 00:18:54,805 --> 00:18:57,885 Speaker 1: Christian powers were like in boats in which they were 359 00:18:57,885 --> 00:19:00,125 Speaker 1: like massacring each other because they hated each other. But 360 00:19:00,165 --> 00:19:02,165 Speaker 1: then they got there's his other boat that had left 361 00:19:02,165 --> 00:19:04,805 Speaker 1: Cyprus to give the news to the Republic of Venice 362 00:19:04,845 --> 00:19:07,285 Speaker 1: of what happened. And they intercepted that boat and they 363 00:19:07,325 --> 00:19:10,045 Speaker 1: told them and they're like shit, they killed our boy Braggaden. Okay, 364 00:19:10,085 --> 00:19:12,285 Speaker 1: like who needs this end fighting, Let's go like kill 365 00:19:12,365 --> 00:19:16,605 Speaker 1: the Ottomans. So that actually then led them to successfully 366 00:19:16,685 --> 00:19:19,405 Speaker 1: leading a battle in which they did then defeat the Ottomans. 367 00:19:19,445 --> 00:19:21,405 Speaker 1: But then the Ottomans a few years there did take 368 00:19:21,445 --> 00:19:25,125 Speaker 1: Cyprus over officially, so you know, it kind of united Europe. 369 00:19:25,645 --> 00:19:31,285 Speaker 1: Nothing brings people together like a common enemy. Yeah. Anyway, 370 00:19:31,485 --> 00:19:34,525 Speaker 1: and what happened was they brought the skin suit to 371 00:19:35,765 --> 00:19:38,925 Speaker 1: Constantinople and but then they think a few years later, 372 00:19:38,925 --> 00:19:42,285 Speaker 1: in like maybe fifteen eighty, someone snuck into where the 373 00:19:42,285 --> 00:19:44,765 Speaker 1: skin suit was being captain. They stole it and they 374 00:19:44,805 --> 00:19:47,925 Speaker 1: brought it back to the Republic of Venice and there 375 00:19:48,005 --> 00:19:51,485 Speaker 1: and they said it was as smooth as silk, the 376 00:19:51,605 --> 00:19:56,405 Speaker 1: skin suit. And now it currently allegedly they had built 377 00:19:56,405 --> 00:20:01,805 Speaker 1: a kind of like a nice monument to Braggaden inside 378 00:20:02,045 --> 00:20:04,125 Speaker 1: the church of Saint John and Saint Paul and Venice, 379 00:20:04,445 --> 00:20:07,125 Speaker 1: and apparently that they have like a vessel in which 380 00:20:07,165 --> 00:20:10,725 Speaker 1: the skin suit still sits. Wow, you can't see it, 381 00:20:10,765 --> 00:20:13,325 Speaker 1: so who knows if it's actually there, but I want 382 00:20:13,365 --> 00:20:16,205 Speaker 1: to see it. Yeah, we should go. Excuse me, we're 383 00:20:16,325 --> 00:20:20,565 Speaker 1: investigative reporters and we need to see the skin suit anyway. 384 00:20:20,605 --> 00:20:23,405 Speaker 1: That is the story of Marco Antonio Braggaden, who is 385 00:20:23,565 --> 00:20:27,525 Speaker 1: considered a great war hero. And you know he had 386 00:20:27,565 --> 00:20:32,165 Speaker 1: a good beard the end. Wow, thank you, Gabby. That 387 00:20:32,245 --> 00:20:39,205 Speaker 1: was fantastic. I feel traumatized now. Excellent, great a guarantee 388 00:20:39,205 --> 00:20:46,885 Speaker 1: on cadaver galves. We'll be right back. Okay, welcome back everyone. 389 00:20:47,525 --> 00:20:51,765 Speaker 1: I know after hearing Gabby's wonderful story, I know what 390 00:20:51,885 --> 00:20:55,565 Speaker 1: you're all thinking, what would it be like to be 391 00:20:55,605 --> 00:21:00,725 Speaker 1: skinned alive? Yes, not what it came to my brain. 392 00:21:00,885 --> 00:21:03,405 Speaker 1: But okay, I bet it's really fun. All right. Yeah, 393 00:21:03,605 --> 00:21:09,485 Speaker 1: so it sucks basically like it's bad? Does it what? 394 00:21:09,845 --> 00:21:16,045 Speaker 1: So begs the question? Begs the question? Does it hurt? Yes? Okay. So, 395 00:21:16,165 --> 00:21:21,005 Speaker 1: first of all, flaying went on the rise in the 396 00:21:21,165 --> 00:21:26,565 Speaker 1: Lucky year of nine to eleven BC. Oh, lucky lucky year. 397 00:21:26,885 --> 00:21:29,885 Speaker 1: It was a practice that was seen pretty much everywhere 398 00:21:29,925 --> 00:21:32,245 Speaker 1: all around the world, but it wasn't the most common 399 00:21:32,285 --> 00:21:34,885 Speaker 1: form of torture. But it was mostly used for the 400 00:21:34,925 --> 00:21:39,605 Speaker 1: treasonous bastards in medieval Europe, and they would they were 401 00:21:39,645 --> 00:21:43,565 Speaker 1: more about like flaying sections to get like information, you know, 402 00:21:43,645 --> 00:21:46,725 Speaker 1: from people, whereas in like China, for example, they would 403 00:21:46,725 --> 00:21:50,165 Speaker 1: maybe only just like remove the face, but oh no, 404 00:21:50,645 --> 00:21:56,365 Speaker 1: hold up, he'll remove the face, skin the face, skin face. Yeah. 405 00:21:56,525 --> 00:21:59,925 Speaker 1: So okay, okay, here's the part of body, my body, 406 00:21:59,925 --> 00:22:04,005 Speaker 1: I'd want them to flay, maybe like my thighs, oh, 407 00:22:04,005 --> 00:22:09,205 Speaker 1: because I get hit. Hide those the pant Oh, but 408 00:22:09,245 --> 00:22:11,485 Speaker 1: then it would probably hurt to have a pant on them. 409 00:22:11,765 --> 00:22:17,485 Speaker 1: But skirt or address skirts, and I don't wear that 410 00:22:17,565 --> 00:22:21,925 Speaker 1: sort of outfit, Taylor, Okay, So are you curious now 411 00:22:21,965 --> 00:22:27,645 Speaker 1: about the technique. I'm so curious. Okay, so this is 412 00:22:27,685 --> 00:22:31,445 Speaker 1: perhaps even just as bad or not worse. It's definitely 413 00:22:31,485 --> 00:22:35,685 Speaker 1: not worse, but um, in order to make the skinning easier, 414 00:22:35,965 --> 00:22:41,205 Speaker 1: they would often set you in boiling water or I 415 00:22:41,245 --> 00:22:43,725 Speaker 1: thought that's what I thought. Or they would strap you, 416 00:22:43,845 --> 00:22:47,325 Speaker 1: like keep you outside in the sun for hours, so 417 00:22:47,405 --> 00:22:51,205 Speaker 1: you're basically they're cooking. They're victims first, which makes the 418 00:22:51,285 --> 00:22:55,405 Speaker 1: skin a little bit easier to peel, which an aggressive 419 00:22:55,445 --> 00:23:00,325 Speaker 1: sunburn is bad, but being boiled alive and then just 420 00:23:00,365 --> 00:23:04,365 Speaker 1: like cooked before, it's just like the beginning, you know. Yea. Yeah, 421 00:23:04,445 --> 00:23:06,485 Speaker 1: Like one time I had a really bad sunburn and 422 00:23:06,525 --> 00:23:08,565 Speaker 1: then I got a massage because I'm an idiot, and 423 00:23:08,565 --> 00:23:11,245 Speaker 1: it hurts so bad. Oh my gosh. Well, like I 424 00:23:11,285 --> 00:23:14,645 Speaker 1: was making salmon this week and I didn't realize that 425 00:23:14,685 --> 00:23:18,005 Speaker 1: you could take the skin off after like you, I 426 00:23:18,045 --> 00:23:20,685 Speaker 1: don't know, fry, grill whatever, bake it. The skin just 427 00:23:20,925 --> 00:23:23,925 Speaker 1: comes off so easily once it's done, but like when 428 00:23:23,925 --> 00:23:25,645 Speaker 1: it's raw, it's really hard to take off. So I 429 00:23:25,765 --> 00:23:30,325 Speaker 1: understand why they would do that. Yeah, so, and you know, 430 00:23:30,445 --> 00:23:32,565 Speaker 1: people love a good like this might be like the 431 00:23:32,605 --> 00:23:35,605 Speaker 1: first you know, how people really enjoy like seeing or 432 00:23:35,725 --> 00:23:39,725 Speaker 1: like doing those like satisfying peels from like technology and whatnot. 433 00:23:39,725 --> 00:23:43,245 Speaker 1: Even like if you some people like to peel their 434 00:23:43,245 --> 00:23:46,725 Speaker 1: own skin from when they're sunburned and stuff. I'm not 435 00:23:46,765 --> 00:23:51,205 Speaker 1: saying I do that, but some people eat it, some 436 00:23:51,245 --> 00:23:54,085 Speaker 1: people peeling. Okay, okay, we're not going there. That's disgusting, 437 00:23:54,525 --> 00:23:57,645 Speaker 1: but you know peeling, Hey, it's not disgusting. If you 438 00:23:57,725 --> 00:24:00,325 Speaker 1: have a problem, it's fine. Or I was just thinking 439 00:24:00,525 --> 00:24:04,565 Speaker 1: awesome powers and gold member as the skin eating. Okay, 440 00:24:04,685 --> 00:24:08,485 Speaker 1: so after they cook you first, they're like next steps. 441 00:24:09,085 --> 00:24:14,685 Speaker 1: They start with like longer scores or like slashes, you know, breeze. 442 00:24:15,205 --> 00:24:17,725 Speaker 1: So they also they would either start with like the 443 00:24:17,845 --> 00:24:21,085 Speaker 1: face or the feet, but of course it was most 444 00:24:21,125 --> 00:24:25,205 Speaker 1: important to get the largest sections because the idea once 445 00:24:25,245 --> 00:24:27,965 Speaker 1: you've been you finished skinning them is so that you 446 00:24:28,005 --> 00:24:32,765 Speaker 1: can display the skin real nice and pretty somewhere. Oh good. 447 00:24:33,045 --> 00:24:36,885 Speaker 1: So it's like an esthetic procedure, yes, exactly. So once 448 00:24:36,925 --> 00:24:42,285 Speaker 1: they begin the peel, they're essentially ripping and tearing. Your nerves. 449 00:24:42,925 --> 00:24:45,365 Speaker 1: As we know, all of your nerves are like the 450 00:24:45,405 --> 00:24:48,205 Speaker 1: little messengers that tell our brain that there's pain. So 451 00:24:48,245 --> 00:24:52,645 Speaker 1: your brain is like, oh, shooters, that really hurts. Oh 452 00:24:53,205 --> 00:24:58,605 Speaker 1: oh shooters, I stole out right? People black out? Well, yeah, 453 00:24:58,645 --> 00:25:02,725 Speaker 1: you that's like best case scenario, okay, right, best case 454 00:25:02,765 --> 00:25:06,285 Speaker 1: scenario you die like quick, like from shaw or you 455 00:25:06,325 --> 00:25:12,445 Speaker 1: pass out because you're feeling literally everything. And also best 456 00:25:12,925 --> 00:25:15,845 Speaker 1: best case scenario, better case scenario, they did sharpen their 457 00:25:15,925 --> 00:25:19,965 Speaker 1: knives because otherwise it is far more like ripping and 458 00:25:20,005 --> 00:25:23,165 Speaker 1: tearing because if you have like you know so, so 459 00:25:23,205 --> 00:25:24,845 Speaker 1: you got to hope for a sharp knife and you 460 00:25:24,885 --> 00:25:27,525 Speaker 1: got to hope for that pass out. Most of them 461 00:25:27,525 --> 00:25:29,485 Speaker 1: would pass out at least by the time they got 462 00:25:29,485 --> 00:25:33,285 Speaker 1: to their waist, which is still too that's halfway, you know, 463 00:25:33,485 --> 00:25:37,165 Speaker 1: like too much, that's too much. Either way you go. Obviously, 464 00:25:37,365 --> 00:25:39,725 Speaker 1: there's also a lot of blood loss going on, and 465 00:25:39,845 --> 00:25:43,765 Speaker 1: as Gabby said, sometimes they're hung upside down. So think 466 00:25:43,765 --> 00:25:45,885 Speaker 1: about this for a second. Say they're going feet first 467 00:25:45,925 --> 00:25:48,605 Speaker 1: and you're being hung upside down, right, all of that 468 00:25:48,725 --> 00:25:52,525 Speaker 1: blood is rushing down your body. You can feel it. 469 00:25:52,645 --> 00:25:55,085 Speaker 1: You just feel the blood like you feel your skin 470 00:25:55,165 --> 00:25:58,485 Speaker 1: being peeled off. You feel the skin or the blood 471 00:25:58,525 --> 00:26:01,005 Speaker 1: like running down your skin and like dripping down off 472 00:26:01,005 --> 00:26:04,605 Speaker 1: of your face. So you're like more or less choking 473 00:26:04,605 --> 00:26:08,245 Speaker 1: in your own blood. Awful, Ah, I told you this 474 00:26:08,325 --> 00:26:12,005 Speaker 1: is really gory. And so that's gory about your skin 475 00:26:12,085 --> 00:26:16,485 Speaker 1: getting peeled off. Okay, So so yeah, that's also disgusting. 476 00:26:16,565 --> 00:26:19,085 Speaker 1: And then we can also just assume at this time 477 00:26:19,125 --> 00:26:21,765 Speaker 1: they didn't really understand like what bacteria was and that 478 00:26:21,845 --> 00:26:24,085 Speaker 1: it was a bad thing. So let's just assume that 479 00:26:24,125 --> 00:26:28,365 Speaker 1: they're not in a very sterile environment. So like you're 480 00:26:28,405 --> 00:26:31,165 Speaker 1: getting infected, Like you're like, all of this is happening 481 00:26:31,325 --> 00:26:34,565 Speaker 1: left and right at this getting infect Yeah, yes, absolutely, 482 00:26:34,765 --> 00:26:39,805 Speaker 1: so some have even survived the full flame. Oh no, 483 00:26:40,005 --> 00:26:43,605 Speaker 1: but that sucks. You will die from infection afterwards, like 484 00:26:43,605 --> 00:26:45,525 Speaker 1: after a day or so, you're gonna look like that 485 00:26:45,565 --> 00:26:53,445 Speaker 1: fucking body's exhibit for real walking around. Yeah. So so 486 00:26:53,525 --> 00:26:58,485 Speaker 1: really like there, I wouldn't even wish this on like 487 00:26:58,605 --> 00:27:02,845 Speaker 1: my greatest enemy, you know, I would not. I'm just kidding. I. Well, 488 00:27:02,885 --> 00:27:06,725 Speaker 1: then you need to be sure that your therapy in therapy, Yes, exactly. 489 00:27:07,525 --> 00:27:10,285 Speaker 1: This is really making me rethink the things that I 490 00:27:10,365 --> 00:27:14,165 Speaker 1: say in bed, because many times I'll say something like 491 00:27:14,205 --> 00:27:17,205 Speaker 1: I want to wear your skin, and now that I 492 00:27:17,365 --> 00:27:22,365 Speaker 1: know what the processes, I don't know if that's sexy. No, 493 00:27:22,445 --> 00:27:26,605 Speaker 1: I don't know if casually casually wearing somebody's skin is 494 00:27:26,765 --> 00:27:29,685 Speaker 1: sa I mean, Nica, it's fine. You can say it's 495 00:27:29,685 --> 00:27:32,445 Speaker 1: a fantasy, like in your fantasy you can flay people 496 00:27:32,485 --> 00:27:34,485 Speaker 1: and then put their skin back on and that's fine 497 00:27:34,605 --> 00:27:36,965 Speaker 1: and it's not painful. It's like fine, it's not that 498 00:27:37,005 --> 00:27:39,445 Speaker 1: I want to cause pain, that's not it. I just 499 00:27:39,525 --> 00:27:43,725 Speaker 1: want to wear. Just make sure make sure you give 500 00:27:43,765 --> 00:27:47,085 Speaker 1: them antibiotics as you're wearing their skin. Make sure that's 501 00:27:47,125 --> 00:27:50,845 Speaker 1: just sterile environment. Yeah, yeah, just say that sexily, just 502 00:27:50,925 --> 00:27:55,765 Speaker 1: like thanks guys, antibiotics. Also, this is going on, like 503 00:27:55,805 --> 00:27:57,885 Speaker 1: your skin, you're losing your skin, right, so you get 504 00:27:57,885 --> 00:28:02,765 Speaker 1: really cold because so you get cold too. So that's 505 00:28:02,845 --> 00:28:06,885 Speaker 1: so gross, like your nerves like Nita jot good. Yeah, exactly, 506 00:28:07,165 --> 00:28:11,965 Speaker 1: a little nerve jacket. So anyway, Nica, would you like 507 00:28:12,005 --> 00:28:15,605 Speaker 1: to lighten the d with another death? I don't know 508 00:28:15,605 --> 00:28:18,965 Speaker 1: how light actually, I'm sorry. I don't know if there's 509 00:28:18,965 --> 00:28:23,965 Speaker 1: any deaths in this one. It's okay, it's me. I'm 510 00:28:24,005 --> 00:28:27,925 Speaker 1: sure there are. But we're going to a really interesting 511 00:28:28,085 --> 00:28:30,805 Speaker 1: practice in the medieval times, not necessarily a death, though 512 00:28:30,845 --> 00:28:33,765 Speaker 1: there was much death going on, so I think that's why. 513 00:28:33,765 --> 00:28:36,485 Speaker 1: Oh it's on the backdrop of like mega death, so 514 00:28:36,525 --> 00:28:39,085 Speaker 1: I think it's okay. Also, I feel like a weird 515 00:28:39,165 --> 00:28:42,445 Speaker 1: ghost under my blanket. So yeah, Gabby has a blanket 516 00:28:42,525 --> 00:28:44,725 Speaker 1: on and looks like you look like you're in a 517 00:28:44,765 --> 00:28:49,365 Speaker 1: haunted house or something. I was thinking, cave Oh, okay, 518 00:28:49,445 --> 00:28:52,605 Speaker 1: cave ga, Gabby, the cave woman. I'm in a uterus. 519 00:28:52,645 --> 00:28:55,525 Speaker 1: It's a haunted uterus. It's a pregnancy scare. Ah boo, 520 00:28:57,725 --> 00:29:02,005 Speaker 1: so silly. Okay, So we're doing this. I thank you 521 00:29:02,045 --> 00:29:05,765 Speaker 1: Gabby for that funny joke. We're doing that. We're doing 522 00:29:05,845 --> 00:29:11,765 Speaker 1: this so we all know what the flagellum is, right, yeah, okay, wait, 523 00:29:11,845 --> 00:29:15,965 Speaker 1: like of a cell tale. Yeah, so I grabbed coffee 524 00:29:15,965 --> 00:29:18,005 Speaker 1: actually this morning with my partner and I was like, 525 00:29:18,285 --> 00:29:20,845 Speaker 1: everyone knows what phlagellum is, and they were like, um, 526 00:29:20,965 --> 00:29:23,365 Speaker 1: you don't know that. Okay, the public school system and 527 00:29:23,405 --> 00:29:25,805 Speaker 1: this country kind of sucks. And I was like, everyone 528 00:29:25,805 --> 00:29:27,925 Speaker 1: has to know what the flagellum is. It's the little 529 00:29:27,925 --> 00:29:30,965 Speaker 1: appendage from certain cells that look like a like a lash, 530 00:29:31,005 --> 00:29:34,085 Speaker 1: and they enable the cells to swim. You know. They're 531 00:29:34,085 --> 00:29:37,685 Speaker 1: found on like sperm, in bacteria and other cells and 532 00:29:37,685 --> 00:29:39,245 Speaker 1: and so no, I want to know. I want to 533 00:29:39,285 --> 00:29:42,405 Speaker 1: I want to post something on Instagram asking if everyone 534 00:29:42,445 --> 00:29:45,085 Speaker 1: knows what the flagellum is, because for me, it's like, oh, 535 00:29:45,125 --> 00:29:47,565 Speaker 1: I mean everyone, if you if I look at a 536 00:29:47,565 --> 00:29:50,245 Speaker 1: sperm cell, I'm not going to remember what the what 537 00:29:50,405 --> 00:29:52,885 Speaker 1: the what the round part looks like and like what 538 00:29:53,005 --> 00:29:55,605 Speaker 1: the name of it is, but I'm gonna remember the flagellum. 539 00:29:55,645 --> 00:29:59,325 Speaker 1: It's the squiggly do That's what I call it on 540 00:29:59,365 --> 00:30:02,565 Speaker 1: the sperm. See, yeah, the squiggly thing. In sex said, 541 00:30:02,645 --> 00:30:05,725 Speaker 1: we learn all about like the man stuff, but like 542 00:30:05,805 --> 00:30:08,205 Speaker 1: nobody tells us about like what happens to a woman. 543 00:30:08,285 --> 00:30:13,325 Speaker 1: But it's fine, that's true. That's true. And storks. No, 544 00:30:13,565 --> 00:30:16,165 Speaker 1: we don't have flagell well, we might have. I don't. 545 00:30:16,205 --> 00:30:19,405 Speaker 1: I actually don't know, Okay, anyway, so that is not 546 00:30:19,445 --> 00:30:22,045 Speaker 1: the flagellum that we're going to talk about today. There 547 00:30:22,125 --> 00:30:25,885 Speaker 1: was also a group of people, yes, in the Middle Ages, 548 00:30:26,005 --> 00:30:29,645 Speaker 1: called flagellents, different word, and they have nothing to do 549 00:30:29,685 --> 00:30:31,965 Speaker 1: with body cells and bacteria, and that's what we're gonna 550 00:30:31,965 --> 00:30:34,405 Speaker 1: get into today. But I just wanted to talk about sperm. 551 00:30:34,925 --> 00:30:39,085 Speaker 1: So flagellents were groups of people who would whip themselves 552 00:30:39,085 --> 00:30:41,765 Speaker 1: and the name of religion, and they were pretty popular 553 00:30:41,805 --> 00:30:44,605 Speaker 1: back in the day. I think the first recorded self 554 00:30:44,645 --> 00:30:49,445 Speaker 1: flagellations come from Martin Luther and other Christian leaders who 555 00:30:49,525 --> 00:30:53,565 Speaker 1: would teach that spirituality should manifest in the physical form. So, like, 556 00:30:53,805 --> 00:30:56,045 Speaker 1: there was one guy called Peter Damien and he was 557 00:30:56,085 --> 00:30:58,685 Speaker 1: a Christian monk from the eleventh century, so I'm not 558 00:30:58,725 --> 00:31:02,365 Speaker 1: a very fun guy, and he said that only those 559 00:31:02,405 --> 00:31:05,125 Speaker 1: who shared the sufferings of Christ could be saved and 560 00:31:05,125 --> 00:31:07,525 Speaker 1: they're or they had to hurt themselves so they could 561 00:31:07,565 --> 00:31:10,205 Speaker 1: like hurt in the same way that Christ hurt. Hurted. 562 00:31:10,445 --> 00:31:14,325 Speaker 1: Was hurt hurt? Yeah, was done hurted. It makes so 563 00:31:14,405 --> 00:31:19,165 Speaker 1: much sense. You guys. Yeah. Also, a flagellation for flagellum 564 00:31:19,165 --> 00:31:21,845 Speaker 1: are like very different words. But do they have Is 565 00:31:21,845 --> 00:31:24,525 Speaker 1: there a reason they're connect because they have flag but 566 00:31:24,605 --> 00:31:29,445 Speaker 1: the whip would look like the flagellum. Yeah, connection A 567 00:31:29,565 --> 00:31:33,165 Speaker 1: whip is like a real life sperm. I mean sperms 568 00:31:33,165 --> 00:31:38,205 Speaker 1: are real too, don't get me wrong. It's like basically 569 00:31:38,245 --> 00:31:42,765 Speaker 1: embodied sperm of the sperm um that I don't know 570 00:31:42,805 --> 00:31:44,485 Speaker 1: how we got here, but I'm going to try to 571 00:31:44,485 --> 00:31:48,005 Speaker 1: read us back in. So that's you started it. You 572 00:31:48,125 --> 00:31:51,245 Speaker 1: talked about the cells. I know, well it's well, it's 573 00:31:51,285 --> 00:31:56,685 Speaker 1: because I can't really say flagellent without thinking of the flagellum, 574 00:31:56,725 --> 00:31:58,285 Speaker 1: so I had to bring it up because there also 575 00:31:58,325 --> 00:31:59,405 Speaker 1: I know I would have brought it up at some 576 00:31:59,405 --> 00:32:01,085 Speaker 1: point in the story. Just get it out of the 577 00:32:01,085 --> 00:32:05,325 Speaker 1: way immediately, you know, adhd out of the way at 578 00:32:05,325 --> 00:32:09,605 Speaker 1: the start. Schedule it okay. So they believe that's the 579 00:32:09,605 --> 00:32:11,445 Speaker 1: only way that they could be saved, and so they 580 00:32:11,485 --> 00:32:13,165 Speaker 1: would hurt in the same way and do that and 581 00:32:13,205 --> 00:32:15,845 Speaker 1: have other people hurt themselves as well. There are, however, 582 00:32:15,965 --> 00:32:19,925 Speaker 1: other stories from ancient Rome where these eunuch priests would 583 00:32:20,805 --> 00:32:23,845 Speaker 1: self flagellate until they bled in this annual ritual to 584 00:32:23,845 --> 00:32:27,165 Speaker 1: the goddess Seybelle. I feel like I pronounced that wrong, 585 00:32:27,205 --> 00:32:30,085 Speaker 1: but she was a goddess, and they would usually do this. 586 00:32:30,365 --> 00:32:34,405 Speaker 1: While this is bad, well, priests who were being initiated 587 00:32:34,405 --> 00:32:37,605 Speaker 1: would castrate themselves, so you had like the priests who 588 00:32:37,605 --> 00:32:39,925 Speaker 1: would castrate themselves on this day, and then the other 589 00:32:39,965 --> 00:32:42,485 Speaker 1: priests that had already castrated themselves and they were eunuchs 590 00:32:42,605 --> 00:32:45,845 Speaker 1: would just self self flash self flash throughout the day, 591 00:32:46,045 --> 00:32:48,325 Speaker 1: and it would usually land on March twenty fourth. So 592 00:32:48,365 --> 00:32:51,485 Speaker 1: if anyone feels like celebrating March twenty fourth next year, 593 00:32:51,885 --> 00:32:55,365 Speaker 1: by all means, go ahead and do that. Yes, let's 594 00:32:55,485 --> 00:33:03,005 Speaker 1: encourage self harm. No, but don't, don't it's God. Yeah 595 00:33:03,445 --> 00:33:08,165 Speaker 1: that is not true, but anyway, so many like those 596 00:33:08,165 --> 00:33:11,125 Speaker 1: are just some of the stories. But obviously, self flagellation 597 00:33:11,325 --> 00:33:15,445 Speaker 1: and self harmful religion has existed since I'm sure before 598 00:33:15,565 --> 00:33:18,205 Speaker 1: ancient Roman times, and we might just not have it recorded. 599 00:33:18,245 --> 00:33:20,445 Speaker 1: But those are just sometimes and it's still kind of 600 00:33:20,485 --> 00:33:22,845 Speaker 1: popular today, like well, I don't know about popular, but 601 00:33:22,845 --> 00:33:26,925 Speaker 1: it's still practiced today, Okay, like some partitioners of Shia 602 00:33:27,125 --> 00:33:30,325 Speaker 1: Islam still self flagellate and many communities. They actually do 603 00:33:30,365 --> 00:33:32,525 Speaker 1: it once a year on the day of Ashura, which 604 00:33:32,565 --> 00:33:36,805 Speaker 1: is an Islamic holiday, and yes, Roman Catholics also sometimes 605 00:33:36,885 --> 00:33:40,005 Speaker 1: do it. It's there's like this not super secret but 606 00:33:40,085 --> 00:33:43,885 Speaker 1: kind of secret brotherhood called Dmanos Penitentes which means the 607 00:33:43,925 --> 00:33:49,525 Speaker 1: Penitent Brothers. They are curiously in New Mexico more than anything, 608 00:33:49,725 --> 00:33:52,565 Speaker 1: and they practice self flagillation in the name of Catholicism. 609 00:33:52,885 --> 00:33:55,965 Speaker 1: And then Pope John Paul the Second actually used to 610 00:33:56,005 --> 00:33:58,925 Speaker 1: self flagellate with a belt and also sleep on like straw. 611 00:33:59,005 --> 00:34:03,245 Speaker 1: I think that's just okay. Yeah, but anyways, we're gonna 612 00:34:03,285 --> 00:34:06,725 Speaker 1: go way way back to when it was the most popular. 613 00:34:07,165 --> 00:34:10,445 Speaker 1: Everyone was doing it. If you weren't doing it, what's up. 614 00:34:10,845 --> 00:34:15,125 Speaker 1: It was during the Black Death. Yes, that's a lot 615 00:34:15,125 --> 00:34:17,405 Speaker 1: of death because he people are dying in your story. 616 00:34:17,445 --> 00:34:19,925 Speaker 1: Thank you, great job. That's true. That's true. They are 617 00:34:19,965 --> 00:34:23,085 Speaker 1: so the Black Death. It's raging, it's crazy. Well, it's 618 00:34:23,125 --> 00:34:27,685 Speaker 1: the mid fourteenth century. People were dying and religious zelots 619 00:34:28,005 --> 00:34:31,245 Speaker 1: were like, oh, we have to do something about this. 620 00:34:31,845 --> 00:34:34,725 Speaker 1: So they take the Black Death personally as one does, 621 00:34:35,645 --> 00:34:38,005 Speaker 1: and they say, oh, it's because of our sins and 622 00:34:38,045 --> 00:34:40,485 Speaker 1: of our filth. Of course, people don't have to like 623 00:34:40,525 --> 00:34:43,645 Speaker 1: always relate things to themselves, you know, and yes they do. 624 00:34:44,005 --> 00:34:47,205 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's not about you, it's always about you. No, 625 00:34:47,445 --> 00:34:49,325 Speaker 1: that's actually a big lesson that I think a lot 626 00:34:49,325 --> 00:34:51,205 Speaker 1: of people learned in their twenties. It's like, it's not 627 00:34:51,245 --> 00:34:53,925 Speaker 1: always about you. Like I remember when my ex blocked 628 00:34:53,925 --> 00:34:55,765 Speaker 1: me after we broke up. I took it so personally 629 00:34:55,765 --> 00:34:58,205 Speaker 1: and then I was like, wait, maybe I'm too beautiful 630 00:34:58,205 --> 00:35:00,845 Speaker 1: and he literally cannot handle it and that's why he 631 00:35:00,885 --> 00:35:03,045 Speaker 1: blocked me. So it's not about me. It's not my problem. 632 00:35:03,125 --> 00:35:05,005 Speaker 1: It's not a me problem because anyways, like I'm still 633 00:35:05,085 --> 00:35:09,245 Speaker 1: learning that. Yeah, like you said, it was about me, 634 00:35:09,325 --> 00:35:11,605 Speaker 1: but it's like the opposite because you're just like too 635 00:35:11,645 --> 00:35:18,205 Speaker 1: amazing and that's okay. So these groups called flagellants came 636 00:35:18,245 --> 00:35:22,125 Speaker 1: together and they began practicing this ritual like all the 637 00:35:22,165 --> 00:35:24,325 Speaker 1: time everywhere because they were like, we need to end 638 00:35:24,365 --> 00:35:25,925 Speaker 1: the Black Death and this is what's going to happen. 639 00:35:26,325 --> 00:35:28,805 Speaker 1: The groups ranged from two hundred to three hundred people 640 00:35:28,805 --> 00:35:33,005 Speaker 1: to sometimes in the thousands, and what their game plan 641 00:35:33,245 --> 00:35:36,045 Speaker 1: was is they would basically roam from town to town 642 00:35:36,205 --> 00:35:39,885 Speaker 1: to self flagellate in public as penance and to bring 643 00:35:39,885 --> 00:35:42,525 Speaker 1: an end to the black death. Okay, they were like 644 00:35:42,645 --> 00:35:47,285 Speaker 1: the Avengers, you know, how how dramatic is that? Just 645 00:35:47,365 --> 00:35:49,525 Speaker 1: like a bunch of I just imagine of all being men, 646 00:35:49,565 --> 00:35:52,245 Speaker 1: but I'm surely there were women too. But they're just 647 00:35:52,285 --> 00:35:55,205 Speaker 1: like hitting themselves, you know, they're like, oh, stop hitting yourself, 648 00:35:55,245 --> 00:35:59,925 Speaker 1: Stop hitting yourself. Oh my gosh. Okay, they're like doing 649 00:35:59,965 --> 00:36:01,885 Speaker 1: it and they're looking at like dead staring people, being like, 650 00:36:02,005 --> 00:36:05,405 Speaker 1: we're doing this for you. Yeah. Literally, that's how they 651 00:36:05,525 --> 00:36:07,085 Speaker 1: would do it, and that's actually how they would recruit 652 00:36:07,125 --> 00:36:10,085 Speaker 1: a lot of their people, is like they would do 653 00:36:10,125 --> 00:36:12,125 Speaker 1: that and then ask people that are watching them from 654 00:36:12,125 --> 00:36:14,525 Speaker 1: the towns to repent. And that's how they like suddenly 655 00:36:14,565 --> 00:36:17,725 Speaker 1: gained so many numbers basically, which is crazy. But really 656 00:36:17,725 --> 00:36:22,525 Speaker 1: they're just like having a super spreading event. Yeah, I literally, 657 00:36:22,725 --> 00:36:25,165 Speaker 1: yeah exactly. So they would arrive in a town, they 658 00:36:25,165 --> 00:36:27,245 Speaker 1: would go straight to the church, and the bells in 659 00:36:27,285 --> 00:36:29,045 Speaker 1: the church would ring to alert the public that the 660 00:36:29,285 --> 00:36:33,085 Speaker 1: flagellans were here, you know, the sperm is here. So 661 00:36:33,725 --> 00:36:37,685 Speaker 1: they'd wear hoods and no shirts and chant litanies, which 662 00:36:37,725 --> 00:36:41,605 Speaker 1: actually there were women in this group of people as well. 663 00:36:41,885 --> 00:36:43,685 Speaker 1: So I found it really interesting that they got to 664 00:36:43,805 --> 00:36:46,885 Speaker 1: be shirtless as well. But I think, oh, good for them, 665 00:36:46,885 --> 00:36:51,125 Speaker 1: But this is also Europe. No no. Also I was 666 00:36:51,165 --> 00:36:53,245 Speaker 1: reading about it, and it's like people said that was 667 00:36:53,285 --> 00:36:55,245 Speaker 1: okay because they were wearing hoods, so they were like 668 00:36:55,685 --> 00:36:58,805 Speaker 1: their identities were covered. But still yeah, kind of kind 669 00:36:58,805 --> 00:37:03,685 Speaker 1: of progressive flagellents being progressive. Wow, titties out. Yeah, but 670 00:37:03,725 --> 00:37:06,445 Speaker 1: all those paintings from them those times their titties were 671 00:37:06,485 --> 00:37:12,685 Speaker 1: out all the time out. Yeah, maybe you're maybe painters 672 00:37:12,685 --> 00:37:15,645 Speaker 1: are just freaks. Yeah. Well, I love reading about like 673 00:37:16,205 --> 00:37:20,165 Speaker 1: um Royalty, especially like the princesses and queens who like 674 00:37:20,685 --> 00:37:24,525 Speaker 1: would have dresses like fixed so their titties could be 675 00:37:24,565 --> 00:37:26,445 Speaker 1: out just like and they would just like walk around 676 00:37:26,525 --> 00:37:31,925 Speaker 1: like that. It's like okay, girl, girl bos. So they 677 00:37:31,965 --> 00:37:34,405 Speaker 1: would chant their litanies and then they would go outside 678 00:37:34,485 --> 00:37:36,605 Speaker 1: three times a day, two times in the morning and 679 00:37:36,645 --> 00:37:40,965 Speaker 1: one in the evening, and they would practice self flagellation. Um. 680 00:37:40,965 --> 00:37:43,645 Speaker 1: The total time per day that they were whipping themselves 681 00:37:43,845 --> 00:37:47,205 Speaker 1: was eight hours daily. Good. I did this for thirty 682 00:37:47,245 --> 00:37:53,525 Speaker 1: three days straight to represent Jesus's age at crucifixion. That's 683 00:37:53,565 --> 00:37:55,805 Speaker 1: a lot eight hours a day, it's like nine to 684 00:37:55,885 --> 00:38:03,285 Speaker 1: five on the back. Dolly Parton said it first. So um, 685 00:38:03,325 --> 00:38:07,125 Speaker 1: Apparently flagellans could be as young as seven years old, 686 00:38:07,645 --> 00:38:11,365 Speaker 1: which is when, according to this sect, children's sins could 687 00:38:11,405 --> 00:38:15,645 Speaker 1: be accounted for. Oh damn, I got so many sins then, right, 688 00:38:16,685 --> 00:38:20,605 Speaker 1: been accumulating since seven? Wow? Yeah. And they couldn't speak 689 00:38:20,605 --> 00:38:22,845 Speaker 1: to each other, and they couldn't have contact with the 690 00:38:22,885 --> 00:38:27,485 Speaker 1: opposite sex, and they had to avoid shaving, bathing, changing clothes, 691 00:38:27,805 --> 00:38:30,365 Speaker 1: all of that. So that seems like that would be 692 00:38:30,405 --> 00:38:34,645 Speaker 1: a really great way to get the black play. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 693 00:38:34,685 --> 00:38:37,725 Speaker 1: for sure. They also had to sleep on straw. And 694 00:38:37,885 --> 00:38:40,045 Speaker 1: I also I really want to paint the picture of 695 00:38:40,085 --> 00:38:43,245 Speaker 1: the whip because it wasn't just like a sexy leather thing, 696 00:38:43,365 --> 00:38:46,685 Speaker 1: you know. I think sometimes we me think of whips 697 00:38:46,765 --> 00:38:49,925 Speaker 1: now as like the black leather bds and whips whatever, 698 00:38:50,405 --> 00:38:52,485 Speaker 1: And that's not what they were using. They were not 699 00:38:52,605 --> 00:38:57,525 Speaker 1: doing it for that particular reason. They It was a 700 00:38:57,565 --> 00:39:01,245 Speaker 1: stick with three thongs, which are the long leather parts 701 00:39:01,325 --> 00:39:04,605 Speaker 1: of a whip, and the thongs would have nails or 702 00:39:04,645 --> 00:39:12,245 Speaker 1: iron spite. Yeah, yeah, I find it and also find 703 00:39:12,245 --> 00:39:15,165 Speaker 1: it very interesting, like when they were recruiting people. Did 704 00:39:15,165 --> 00:39:17,125 Speaker 1: they just have these whips like on hand, like to 705 00:39:17,205 --> 00:39:22,845 Speaker 1: give like, okay, here you go, here's your craft sashion before. Yeah, 706 00:39:22,845 --> 00:39:27,245 Speaker 1: like a crafting, crafting with my buds. Maybe they're like 707 00:39:27,405 --> 00:39:29,405 Speaker 1: Jedis where they have to like the Jedies have to 708 00:39:29,405 --> 00:39:31,405 Speaker 1: make their own lightsabers. Maybe you have to make your 709 00:39:31,405 --> 00:39:35,725 Speaker 1: own whip, like a richual whip making. Yeah, that makes sense. 710 00:39:35,765 --> 00:39:37,045 Speaker 1: You gotta bring them out and be like, okay, we 711 00:39:37,045 --> 00:39:40,165 Speaker 1: gotta make your whips first, here's your supplies. Here's what 712 00:39:40,205 --> 00:39:45,685 Speaker 1: you do. Step one, get your stick to join your 713 00:39:45,725 --> 00:39:51,445 Speaker 1: cult um. Ok So it was kind of intense, and 714 00:39:51,845 --> 00:39:55,365 Speaker 1: the flagellants would whip themselves so hard that they would 715 00:39:55,485 --> 00:39:59,765 Speaker 1: draw blood, spraying crowds, and some people would think the 716 00:39:59,805 --> 00:40:02,485 Speaker 1: blood was holy because of their sacrifice, and they would 717 00:40:02,485 --> 00:40:05,125 Speaker 1: put the blood on their eyes or in their bodies, 718 00:40:05,565 --> 00:40:08,925 Speaker 1: leaving that it had miraculous properties. So you can just 719 00:40:08,925 --> 00:40:10,845 Speaker 1: imagine the picture that we're painting here. You know, they're 720 00:40:10,845 --> 00:40:14,605 Speaker 1: on the town square encircle, chanting and whipping themselves. Other 721 00:40:14,685 --> 00:40:18,365 Speaker 1: times the iron spikes or nails would get stuck inside 722 00:40:18,365 --> 00:40:20,725 Speaker 1: the flesh and it would take two or three tries 723 00:40:20,765 --> 00:40:25,645 Speaker 1: to dislodge the body, sometimes taking chunks of flesh with it. 724 00:40:25,645 --> 00:40:29,165 Speaker 1: I don't like. I hate when flesh is described in 725 00:40:29,325 --> 00:40:32,125 Speaker 1: chunk chunks. I hate it. Two I wrote it hate 726 00:40:32,125 --> 00:40:36,285 Speaker 1: the word chunk. M It doesn't sound cute. It's just 727 00:40:36,485 --> 00:40:39,765 Speaker 1: it is cute if it's a big, fat cat chunk. 728 00:40:40,045 --> 00:40:43,285 Speaker 1: But that's yeah, chunk, I guess, but not if it's 729 00:40:43,325 --> 00:40:47,045 Speaker 1: flesh chunks, Oh, a little chunk. Also, I like with 730 00:40:47,085 --> 00:40:49,165 Speaker 1: them being sprayed with blood. It sounds like a cool 731 00:40:49,245 --> 00:40:51,365 Speaker 1: concert or something, you know, like when people are like 732 00:40:51,405 --> 00:40:55,005 Speaker 1: spraying champagne bottles, but it's blood instead. Yeah. I when 733 00:40:55,125 --> 00:40:58,085 Speaker 1: I used to go to Catholic Mass when I was younger, 734 00:40:58,485 --> 00:41:02,005 Speaker 1: and the priest would spray us with holy water, I'd 735 00:41:02,045 --> 00:41:06,485 Speaker 1: be like, hey, all excited, open my mouth for thee 736 00:41:06,565 --> 00:41:10,845 Speaker 1: oh my gosh. Anyway, I thought it was so fun. Okay, 737 00:41:11,645 --> 00:41:15,005 Speaker 1: so okay, so I know what y'all were thinking. Did 738 00:41:15,045 --> 00:41:20,245 Speaker 1: it work? Yeah, it didn't work. Well no, So we'll 739 00:41:20,245 --> 00:41:23,805 Speaker 1: never really know because maybe maybe somehow their prayers did 740 00:41:23,805 --> 00:41:26,365 Speaker 1: work and their sacrifices did work. But what we do 741 00:41:26,445 --> 00:41:29,645 Speaker 1: know is that the Black death raged on even after 742 00:41:29,685 --> 00:41:33,845 Speaker 1: the pope proclaimed that flagellents were heretics and excommunicating them, 743 00:41:34,445 --> 00:41:36,685 Speaker 1: and they didn't stop at first. They were like, we're 744 00:41:36,685 --> 00:41:41,205 Speaker 1: going to keep going. But then other people in Europe 745 00:41:41,245 --> 00:41:45,205 Speaker 1: started realizing that flagelens were supposed to be excommunicated, and 746 00:41:45,245 --> 00:41:47,645 Speaker 1: they started treating them differently. And then flagellents kind of 747 00:41:47,685 --> 00:41:49,525 Speaker 1: dissolved a little bit. They came back again in the 748 00:41:49,565 --> 00:41:51,645 Speaker 1: sixteenth century a little bit, but for the most part 749 00:41:52,245 --> 00:41:56,045 Speaker 1: Medieval Black Death flagellents kind of just like fell apart. 750 00:41:56,085 --> 00:41:59,525 Speaker 1: The group fell apart like any good boy band. It 751 00:41:59,685 --> 00:42:03,085 Speaker 1: has to fall apart at some point, that's true, yeah, 752 00:42:03,125 --> 00:42:06,205 Speaker 1: And so they kind of dissolved. And then also another 753 00:42:06,245 --> 00:42:09,925 Speaker 1: reason why we don't think it worked is because some 754 00:42:09,965 --> 00:42:13,165 Speaker 1: people notice the flagellents brought the play to towns where 755 00:42:13,165 --> 00:42:17,445 Speaker 1: the plague had in surface to first gotta be set 756 00:42:17,485 --> 00:42:21,165 Speaker 1: it first, exactly, and so flageleents were actually denied entry 757 00:42:21,445 --> 00:42:25,165 Speaker 1: into the towns because they were like, you're carrying this disease, 758 00:42:25,205 --> 00:42:28,005 Speaker 1: you're not actually helping. And so what they would do 759 00:42:28,405 --> 00:42:31,365 Speaker 1: is they would wait outside of the town and basically 760 00:42:31,485 --> 00:42:37,005 Speaker 1: do the self flagelling flag flogging outside of the town 761 00:42:37,285 --> 00:42:39,685 Speaker 1: more because they were like, we're so bad, we have 762 00:42:39,885 --> 00:42:45,525 Speaker 1: the plane no, that's not funny, not funny, but it's 763 00:42:45,565 --> 00:42:47,685 Speaker 1: just like, no, I found it very funny. I found 764 00:42:47,685 --> 00:42:50,685 Speaker 1: that very very funny. Actually, like, bro, you're not helping, 765 00:42:50,805 --> 00:42:53,325 Speaker 1: Yes we are. No, you're literally not I know. And 766 00:42:53,325 --> 00:42:56,405 Speaker 1: then they like feel more guilty so they do it more. Yeah, 767 00:42:56,565 --> 00:43:00,725 Speaker 1: so a fun time that like not done it and 768 00:43:00,965 --> 00:43:04,445 Speaker 1: that would have been the best solution. Absolutely, yeah, staying 769 00:43:04,605 --> 00:43:07,485 Speaker 1: home and so full distancing would have been the best solution. 770 00:43:07,605 --> 00:43:10,325 Speaker 1: But you know, if they didn't know it then and 771 00:43:10,405 --> 00:43:13,405 Speaker 1: people barely do it now, then I don't I think 772 00:43:13,445 --> 00:43:16,805 Speaker 1: I've lost hope for a humanity. Well, thank you, Nika. 773 00:43:17,245 --> 00:43:24,045 Speaker 1: I'm going to talk just about that when we come back. Okay, 774 00:43:24,085 --> 00:43:29,205 Speaker 1: welcome back. As we all know now, unfortunately we're too 775 00:43:29,205 --> 00:43:33,045 Speaker 1: familiar with plagues and people are still doing weird shit 776 00:43:33,125 --> 00:43:36,165 Speaker 1: to try and fix it. But disclaimer of guys, please 777 00:43:36,325 --> 00:43:38,885 Speaker 1: just do as scientists tell you and don't do weird shit. 778 00:43:39,165 --> 00:43:42,485 Speaker 1: There's a plague. What's happening? We're in a gabby? Did 779 00:43:42,525 --> 00:43:46,885 Speaker 1: you know that what we are in a plague? Isn't 780 00:43:46,885 --> 00:43:52,125 Speaker 1: that crazy? We're so random. It's such a vibe, honestly, 781 00:43:52,485 --> 00:43:56,285 Speaker 1: such a vibe. It's something it's not I hate COVID. 782 00:43:56,325 --> 00:43:59,645 Speaker 1: It's killed people. I love. It's terrible. Yeah, so we're 783 00:43:59,645 --> 00:44:02,045 Speaker 1: going to talk about the Black Death further. So this 784 00:44:02,125 --> 00:44:06,125 Speaker 1: was a plague that was originated from bacteria that fleas 785 00:44:06,165 --> 00:44:10,885 Speaker 1: would carry on rats. Barf, barf, barf. That's discussed. Please 786 00:44:10,885 --> 00:44:14,085 Speaker 1: please are canceled. But love rats, they're just doing the 787 00:44:14,165 --> 00:44:17,445 Speaker 1: Lord's world. Don't talk about don't talk about those things. 788 00:44:17,885 --> 00:44:21,525 Speaker 1: I know our listeners get real triggered by time about rats. 789 00:44:21,845 --> 00:44:27,645 Speaker 1: I don't like them. And actually I know someone who 790 00:44:27,805 --> 00:44:31,925 Speaker 1: has one as a pet and their lat or like 791 00:44:31,965 --> 00:44:38,725 Speaker 1: a mouse or a bacteria or a the R word okay, 792 00:44:38,925 --> 00:44:42,765 Speaker 1: and she's like, they're very intelligent and actually great pets, 793 00:44:42,925 --> 00:44:45,685 Speaker 1: but I just cannot. Also, apparently they're like ridiculously clean, 794 00:44:45,965 --> 00:44:48,365 Speaker 1: but then how do they get the plague? Huh? Well, 795 00:44:48,365 --> 00:44:50,805 Speaker 1: that explained to me that rat because this was medieval 796 00:44:50,845 --> 00:44:53,325 Speaker 1: times and shit was really dirty. Then they didn't know 797 00:44:53,365 --> 00:44:55,805 Speaker 1: about bacteria and stuff like that. They didn't know that 798 00:44:56,165 --> 00:44:59,045 Speaker 1: being clean was good. Okay, I didn't even like wash 799 00:44:59,125 --> 00:45:01,725 Speaker 1: their hands yet. They didn't know to wash your hands. 800 00:45:02,085 --> 00:45:04,725 Speaker 1: So fleas are on the rats, but they didn't know 801 00:45:04,805 --> 00:45:07,725 Speaker 1: that they religious. Like all of a sudden, people were 802 00:45:07,725 --> 00:45:10,645 Speaker 1: getting these like welts all over their body, like predominently 803 00:45:10,685 --> 00:45:15,325 Speaker 1: in their like armpits and groin grells. The welts would 804 00:45:15,405 --> 00:45:19,885 Speaker 1: leak m pus and blood, say it pus and blood, 805 00:45:20,405 --> 00:45:25,085 Speaker 1: and you would also have flu like symptoms, fever, chills, eggs, vomit, 806 00:45:25,165 --> 00:45:31,645 Speaker 1: and Nika, I will spare you the D word, so diarrhea. 807 00:45:29,805 --> 00:45:35,965 Speaker 1: I decided to do that. I decided I'm a bad girl. 808 00:45:36,885 --> 00:45:40,685 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I actively decided not to bully you, Nica, 809 00:45:41,605 --> 00:45:45,885 Speaker 1: and I decided violence. Yeah, well I got me choosing violence. 810 00:45:46,125 --> 00:45:51,125 Speaker 1: Nothing surprising, thanks for ruining my day. It's almost my season. Well, 811 00:45:51,165 --> 00:45:56,645 Speaker 1: I mean it's currently your season, though I know Libra 812 00:45:56,805 --> 00:45:59,645 Speaker 1: Libra season is so nice and airy and pretty, and 813 00:45:59,685 --> 00:46:04,125 Speaker 1: then Scorpio season is like kremlin time. They'll Scorpio season 814 00:46:04,205 --> 00:46:06,885 Speaker 1: is the season where you would wear somebody else's skin, Nika. 815 00:46:07,045 --> 00:46:12,125 Speaker 1: So yeah, well my scorpios actually, my mars and my 816 00:46:12,285 --> 00:46:15,405 Speaker 1: venus are in Scorpio, so I actually I love I 817 00:46:15,485 --> 00:46:21,125 Speaker 1: love Scorpio energy. But Libre season is just very graceful, okay, 818 00:46:21,165 --> 00:46:25,245 Speaker 1: and like pretty. And I said, I wasn't going to 819 00:46:25,325 --> 00:46:33,525 Speaker 1: bully you, but you're you're taking just trying to defend myself. Okay, 820 00:46:33,565 --> 00:46:37,605 Speaker 1: go ahead, Okay. So, as you can imagine, people have 821 00:46:37,725 --> 00:46:40,965 Speaker 1: always been doing weird, weird stuff to try and cure 822 00:46:41,245 --> 00:46:48,765 Speaker 1: diseases and um like peeing on yourself. Yeah, people do exactly. Yeah. 823 00:46:48,885 --> 00:46:54,445 Speaker 1: So there are a few other tactics besides lashing themselves 824 00:46:55,005 --> 00:46:58,965 Speaker 1: that people would do, many of which were rubbing various 825 00:46:58,965 --> 00:47:03,205 Speaker 1: herbs and roots and stuff on the boils. But they 826 00:47:03,205 --> 00:47:06,245 Speaker 1: were like essentially like making their own potions. They would 827 00:47:06,285 --> 00:47:10,925 Speaker 1: also drink vinegar, mercury, and even arsenic, which I'm sure 828 00:47:11,605 --> 00:47:16,005 Speaker 1: you can guess how that went. They all die. Mercury 829 00:47:16,285 --> 00:47:19,565 Speaker 1: drives people crazy well, but also arsenic, like people were 830 00:47:19,605 --> 00:47:21,725 Speaker 1: just killing themselves. Oh yeah, I know, no, I know that. 831 00:47:22,765 --> 00:47:25,245 Speaker 1: But actually one of the more popular potions is actually 832 00:47:25,325 --> 00:47:29,405 Speaker 1: used today and non traditional like medical type practices. It's 833 00:47:29,445 --> 00:47:33,725 Speaker 1: called four thieves vinegar. There's one ingredient per thief, that's 834 00:47:33,765 --> 00:47:37,605 Speaker 1: why it's four thieves. It most commonly had like vinegar obviously, 835 00:47:38,045 --> 00:47:42,365 Speaker 1: sage cloves, rosemary, and today it's like it's like a 836 00:47:42,085 --> 00:47:46,525 Speaker 1: bad antibacterial tonic to keep germs at bay, which is 837 00:47:46,645 --> 00:47:50,645 Speaker 1: very interesting to me. Does it like work? I mean, 838 00:47:50,765 --> 00:47:53,485 Speaker 1: I don't know, no, I mean, it's not like it's 839 00:47:53,485 --> 00:47:55,885 Speaker 1: not bad for you, but it didn't like cure the 840 00:47:55,885 --> 00:48:00,365 Speaker 1: Black Day definitely not so um. Others other people would 841 00:48:00,405 --> 00:48:03,645 Speaker 1: like overheat themselves to essentially try and smoke out the disease. 842 00:48:04,245 --> 00:48:07,765 Speaker 1: People did that with COVID two. Yeah, well people, but 843 00:48:07,805 --> 00:48:09,685 Speaker 1: they refused to do the one thing that actually worked. 844 00:48:09,725 --> 00:48:13,365 Speaker 1: So yeah, so they sit by fires. Others would try 845 00:48:13,565 --> 00:48:16,565 Speaker 1: blood letting, which was actually relative was a very popular thing, 846 00:48:16,605 --> 00:48:18,965 Speaker 1: so they put leeches on their skin to like draw 847 00:48:19,165 --> 00:48:22,285 Speaker 1: the bad blood. And you guys, being a leech collector 848 00:48:22,365 --> 00:48:27,485 Speaker 1: during this time was quite the hot career people were making. 849 00:48:27,525 --> 00:48:29,965 Speaker 1: I thought, Taylor, I literally thought you were to say, 850 00:48:30,005 --> 00:48:32,805 Speaker 1: being a leech collector myself, I was like, what, no, 851 00:48:33,045 --> 00:48:40,205 Speaker 1: you collect more than porcelain horses? What? Okay, I did earlier? 852 00:48:40,365 --> 00:48:43,805 Speaker 1: I know I needed I needed to get back to 853 00:48:43,845 --> 00:48:49,205 Speaker 1: you lovingly. Okay, back at you? Did they use back then? No? Okay? 854 00:48:49,405 --> 00:48:53,845 Speaker 1: But so what about ketamine? So no, would you quit 855 00:48:53,885 --> 00:48:59,005 Speaker 1: guessing and just listen? Yeah? Okay, So they would use leeches, okay, 856 00:48:59,045 --> 00:49:03,805 Speaker 1: other people? So so there was also like there was 857 00:49:03,965 --> 00:49:06,405 Speaker 1: a big group of people obviously they decided to use 858 00:49:06,565 --> 00:49:10,925 Speaker 1: religious cures. So in addition to what Nico was talking about. 859 00:49:11,405 --> 00:49:15,925 Speaker 1: They would also use serpents, which were obviously synonymous with 860 00:49:15,965 --> 00:49:18,765 Speaker 1: the devil, so they like chop up snakes and rub 861 00:49:18,805 --> 00:49:22,445 Speaker 1: them on their skin to draw quote, draw out the devil. 862 00:49:23,205 --> 00:49:27,085 Speaker 1: And then others would pluck a chicken butt and rub 863 00:49:27,125 --> 00:49:30,485 Speaker 1: the bare bum of a chicken on you until the 864 00:49:30,565 --> 00:49:33,525 Speaker 1: chicken got sick, and then they were like, oh, well 865 00:49:33,525 --> 00:49:37,205 Speaker 1: the chicken has absorbed my sickness, which is really rude 866 00:49:37,325 --> 00:49:41,765 Speaker 1: to chickens and also the snakes. Yeah, but you guys, 867 00:49:42,005 --> 00:49:46,845 Speaker 1: the most effective stop the spread is drum roll. Are 868 00:49:46,885 --> 00:49:54,565 Speaker 1: you ready? Yeah. Social distancing death is literally when social 869 00:49:54,605 --> 00:49:58,165 Speaker 1: distancing was invented. So, as Nika kind of mentioned, like, 870 00:49:58,205 --> 00:50:00,165 Speaker 1: it got to the point where like these were these 871 00:50:00,205 --> 00:50:02,925 Speaker 1: super spreader events, people going out and like you know, 872 00:50:03,125 --> 00:50:06,845 Speaker 1: trying to bring people into do the lash, and so 873 00:50:07,085 --> 00:50:09,365 Speaker 1: it got to a point where they're like they started 874 00:50:09,525 --> 00:50:11,485 Speaker 1: monitoring and they were like, yeah, you can't come in. 875 00:50:11,565 --> 00:50:12,885 Speaker 1: You were you were sick and you were going to 876 00:50:12,925 --> 00:50:16,165 Speaker 1: get us sick. They didn't understand like the spread of germs. 877 00:50:16,165 --> 00:50:18,725 Speaker 1: They that concept wasn't there, but they understood that it 878 00:50:18,845 --> 00:50:21,445 Speaker 1: had to do with like proximity of other people. So 879 00:50:21,485 --> 00:50:25,365 Speaker 1: they figured that out, and so that's when they decided, hey, 880 00:50:26,085 --> 00:50:28,565 Speaker 1: stop coming near us, and you guys need to stay home. 881 00:50:28,725 --> 00:50:31,245 Speaker 1: So they started saying like you gotta stay like they 882 00:50:31,245 --> 00:50:33,085 Speaker 1: started selling people that they had to say home. Some 883 00:50:33,165 --> 00:50:36,045 Speaker 1: instances they would have like special areas that were just 884 00:50:36,245 --> 00:50:39,565 Speaker 1: for people who were sick that they would just stay quarantine. 885 00:50:39,605 --> 00:50:44,405 Speaker 1: So they were literally quarantining. And that's ultimately like what 886 00:50:44,565 --> 00:50:48,285 Speaker 1: was reduced the spread, and it came up because of 887 00:50:48,485 --> 00:50:52,525 Speaker 1: black death, so it eventually it slowed down after like 888 00:50:52,565 --> 00:50:56,045 Speaker 1: four USh years, so guys were two down, two years down, 889 00:50:56,045 --> 00:50:59,685 Speaker 1: two to go. But yeah, you know, but get vaccinated. 890 00:50:59,805 --> 00:51:04,765 Speaker 1: So there you have it. You're sick, stay home. But 891 00:51:05,005 --> 00:51:08,125 Speaker 1: what I find hilarious is like social distancing was to 892 00:51:08,285 --> 00:51:12,205 Speaker 1: crazy concept like proximity, but then putting rubbing a chicken 893 00:51:12,245 --> 00:51:14,845 Speaker 1: on the welt and then the chicken getting sick, it 894 00:51:14,965 --> 00:51:17,165 Speaker 1: like that made perfect to them. I didn't. I mean, 895 00:51:17,205 --> 00:51:19,325 Speaker 1: that's how it's still like today, right, I mean, people 896 00:51:19,325 --> 00:51:21,085 Speaker 1: are like social discing and dumb and they want to 897 00:51:21,085 --> 00:51:23,565 Speaker 1: have viber mactin instead. It seems like that, Oh I 898 00:51:23,565 --> 00:51:26,885 Speaker 1: mean yeah, no, I listen, yeah, so people are historians 899 00:51:26,925 --> 00:51:28,485 Speaker 1: are gonna be talking about this in fifty years and 900 00:51:28,565 --> 00:51:32,085 Speaker 1: be like that was so dumb. A new plague will 901 00:51:32,085 --> 00:51:35,645 Speaker 1: come up and then it'll just the next generation of kidavergals. 902 00:51:36,405 --> 00:51:38,365 Speaker 1: They're gonna be talking anyway. I cut you off, Taylor, 903 00:51:38,445 --> 00:51:40,325 Speaker 1: you had a big point. I did have another point. 904 00:51:40,405 --> 00:51:44,765 Speaker 1: So this was actually the Black Plague was essentially kind 905 00:51:44,765 --> 00:51:49,125 Speaker 1: of the end of the what is called the Medieval times, 906 00:51:49,205 --> 00:51:54,765 Speaker 1: because people were starting to realize that these quote religious 907 00:51:54,845 --> 00:51:59,445 Speaker 1: cures didn't work. They were like, wait, this isn't so 908 00:51:59,485 --> 00:52:03,205 Speaker 1: they kind of started to change their thinking. They started 909 00:52:03,245 --> 00:52:06,165 Speaker 1: to figure out that it's like proximity and that germs 910 00:52:06,165 --> 00:52:09,325 Speaker 1: would like spread and they So this was kind of 911 00:52:09,325 --> 00:52:13,605 Speaker 1: the beginning of or like the in the end of 912 00:52:13,805 --> 00:52:17,285 Speaker 1: medieval times, in the beginning of more modern times, kind 913 00:52:17,325 --> 00:52:19,605 Speaker 1: of like how right now people are realizing that the 914 00:52:19,645 --> 00:52:23,765 Speaker 1: system we're under is total bullshit. I mean, that's a 915 00:52:23,805 --> 00:52:27,565 Speaker 1: whole other podcast. But yeah, oh yeah, I'm not I'm 916 00:52:27,845 --> 00:52:29,685 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I'm just like, well, what's wrong with 917 00:52:29,725 --> 00:52:34,485 Speaker 1: the world, Nika, what are you talking about? I just 918 00:52:34,805 --> 00:52:40,005 Speaker 1: want to thank the flagellum of the bacteria from the 919 00:52:40,045 --> 00:52:44,565 Speaker 1: Black Death for bringing the medieval people into the enlightened ages, 920 00:52:45,085 --> 00:52:49,365 Speaker 1: which is an ironic way to state that, But okay, 921 00:52:49,445 --> 00:52:53,125 Speaker 1: thank you, get Nika, You're welcome. Okay, Well, do we 922 00:52:53,165 --> 00:52:57,285 Speaker 1: have any closing thoughts? People, get vaccinated, quarantine if you're sick, 923 00:52:57,445 --> 00:53:02,005 Speaker 1: if you're not feeling well, stay home, get tested, don't spread, 924 00:53:02,925 --> 00:53:06,365 Speaker 1: don't splatter your blood on people. Yeah, yeah, that too, 925 00:53:06,725 --> 00:53:10,765 Speaker 1: unless it's consensual, Unless you can do whatever you want 926 00:53:10,885 --> 00:53:14,045 Speaker 1: as long as contentual exactly.
