In this episode, our sixth one, we discuss the most famous comedic actor of the Spanish Golden Age, the witty Cosme Pérez, better known as Juan Rana. Such an exceptional actor and even better comedian that even kings boasted of having him at their service, which is why he was spared from the Inquisition taking care of him due to the heinous sin he practiced, that is, for being homosexual.
