Toil and Trouble
The king of Scotland has got 99 problems, but a witch ain’t one. This week, we dive into King James VI/I, Shakespeare’s Macbeth, and the witch hunts of sixteenth-century Scotland. Can one king’s trauma cause a nation's madness?
Researched, written, and produced by Corinne Wieben, with dramatizations by LibriVox and original music by Purple Planet.
