Introducing "Ripper Watch"
Manage episode 322859869 series 3327363
Something different! This week Alice, Helen, Sara and Abigail all got together. This episode is an introduction to a recurring feature discussing the representation of the Whitechapel Murders and "Jack the Ripper" in pop culture, through puns, commemorative coins, horrible street art and weird cross stitch. We also watched Patricia Cornwell's 2002 Stalking The Ripper documentary, and talked about the idea of "Ripperology".
This episode discusses murder, and violence against women.
Historical Friction is a podcast about storytelling, pop culture, the past, and why we reenact it.
