Welcome to episode 31 with your host this week, Lori Ann Bailey, as she explores torture for information, punishment, and beauty. Does Chinese water torture really work? Why can being on the wheel mean a swift death or one prolonged for days? What would posses a woman to break her own feet? Find the answers on this episode.
