Sodomy Seems To Be The Hardest Word - Tomas de Torquemada 1492

No one expects the 15th century's biggest party pooper, Tomas de Torquemada and the Spanish Inquisition.
It’s a tortuous tale of a controversial historical figure, religious persecution, the Catholic Church, heretics, the Dominican Order and the Spanish monarchy.
But I’ve tried to keep it lighthearted.

• What should you do if you see someone wearing fancy clothes on a Sunday?
• How many ways can you denounce your neighbour?
• Is a 'Papal Bull' a type of livestock?
• Was Torquemada a 'grand' inquisitor or was he just 'alright' ?

The answers to these questions ( and some dungeon sound effects) can be found in episode 38 of Rogues Gallery Uncovered - The Podcast of Bad Behaviour in Period Costume.

Thanks for listening. Stay Roguish!
