Hello and welcome to Your Dead To Me, a history podcast for people who don't like history

or release people to forgot to learn any at school.

My name is Greg Jenner, I'm a public historian, author and I'm the chief nerd on the BBC

comedy show Horrible Histories.

When I whip up a podcast, it's basically one part funny, two parts fact, stick it in

the cauldron, at I Have Newed, lovely.

In case you've not heard, your Dead To Me before, every episode I'm joined by an expert

historian who is top of the class, and a comedian who's a class act.

And today we are dining our pointy hats, buying a black cat and going from magical broomstick

ride back to early modern Europe to explore all things witchy.

Or rather, all things European witch craze.

Joining me in history corner, she is a superstar historian and broadcaster, professor at the University

of Rohampton, author of loads of books, including Handelie Witchcraft, a ladybird expert book.

You'll have seen on the tally, on all the channels, an including an insert name here, which

is a very funny comedy show with historians on it, which is great.

It is a course, professor, Susanna Libskin, high Susanna, how are you?
