Episode 456: The Black Death Part I - Stomp a Gerbil, Bribe a Rat

This week we begin a five-part series on a catastrophe that
remains one of the most destructive things to ever happen to
humanity — the Black Death AKA the Great Mortality AKA the Big
Death. For part one, we examine the conditions that led to the
worst pandemic in history. Spoiler alert: it involves an ungodly
amount of human shit.
