Oddities: A Podcast of the Strangest by the Curious

Forbidden to Sing & Posthumous Execution of Oliver Cromwell


Listen Later

Welcome back to Oddities the podcast where no topic is too *~*StRaNgE*~*! In this episode, we discover singing being illegal...no seriously it is a thing...do you think you could refrain from singing?? Up next we uncover the bizarre and symbolic posthumous execution of Oliver Cromwell—one of England’s most controversial historical figures. Over two years after his death, Cromwell’s corpse was exhumed, hanged, and beheaded in a dramatic display of political vengeance. Why did the monarchy go to such lengths? What did this act mean for the restored crown and the people of England? Join us as we explore the strange intersection of history, power, and justice beyond the grave.
