  • サマリー

  • Why did kings and queens have spectators on their wedding night? Who had the very first boob job? And did our ancestors have their unmentionables pierced?


    Join historian, Kate Lister, Betwixt the Sheets as she unashamedly roots around the topics which seem to have been skipped in history class.


    Everything from landmark LGBTQ+ court cases, to political scandal, to downright bizarre medieval cures for impotence. The etymology of swear words, gender bias in medicine, and satanic panic and cults - there’s nothing off limits.


    She'll be bed-hopping around different time periods; from ancient civilisations, to the middle ages, to renaissance and early modern...right up to now.


    You’ll laugh, you’ll wince, and you’ll ask yourself how much has actually changed.


    So join Kate Betwixt the Sheets: The History of Sex, Scandal & Society - a podcast from History Hit.

  • Pagan Ritual Nudity

    Pagan Ritual Nudity
    2024/09/10

    Rituals are a big part of this funny human experience, aren't they?


    Whether that's morning rituals like making your bed... or pagan rituals that involve stripping down to your birthday suit for certain ceremonies.


    The importance of nakedness is a big part of it, too, that can help separate you from this world and bring you closer to nature, and other realms.


    What other ways have naked rituals played a part in our history? And are they still practiced today?


    Joining Kate is the fantastic friend of the show, Ronald Hutton, author of The Pagan Rituals of the British Isles, to help us find out.

    What The Ancient Greeks Got Wrong About The Female Body
    2024/09/06

    Why did the Ancient Greeks depict a womb as an octopus in their textbooks?


    Their writings and (mis)understandings of the female body might seem borderline comical now, but how did these beliefs on the physical indicators of womanhood still impact us today?


    Joining Kate is Helen King, author of Immaculate Forms: A History of the Female Body in Four Parts, to explore Ancient Greeks beliefs on breasts, clitoris, hymen and the womb.
