E22 The Guillotine: Old World Cutting-Edge Tech
Update: 2025-04-14
Description
This episode is all about the guillotine; the classic, time-tested stress reliever of the masses! Your hosts Fae and Aratrice will be slicing off a piece of its history, its effectiveness, and some common myths surrounding it.
Beheading machines didn't start with the guillotine though, so first we'll introduce you to some of its precursors before cutting to the chase. We'll also explore why it has continued to persevere in the minds of the peasantry over the centuries because, uh, it's such a marvel of efficiency!
