Episode 21 - The Panacea Society Part 1: Revelations is Where the Fun Stuff Happens

Have you heard about the Panacea Society, the end of days and the transformation of society? No? Well my friends, now is your chance. Part 1 introduces two rather unusual women: Mabel Barltrop, middle class and middle aged, with a life marred by tragedy, and Joanna Southcott, stout visionary and proud owner of both a fine bonnet and a mysterious box of prophecies. Listen to discover what connects them, and hear how their fervent beliefs gave rise to the unorthodox credo of the Panaceans.

Along the way we drink a ‘Pink Panacea’ and Katy sneaks me a hated foodstuff in cocktail form. So sneaky.
