Listen "Dance 'til You Drop - The Dancing Plague of 1518"
Episode Synopsis
Join two enthusiastic amateur historians as they waltz their way through one of history’s strangest footnotes: the Dancing Plague of 1518. With a light-hearted mix of banter, bizarre facts, and a dash of scepticism, they explore how a crowd in Strasbourg found themselves jigging, jumping, and collapsing in the streets. Was it mass hysteria? Ergot poisoning? Or just a medieval excuse for a knees-up gone wrong? Expect laughs, lively storytelling, and plenty of toe-tapping history.
