    Throughout history, several women have earned notoriety for their actions and the impact they had on society. These women, often wielding considerable power and influence, left behind legacies marred by violence, cruelty, and controversy.

    One of the most infamous women in history is Elizabeth Báthory, who we've covered in a previous episode, but if you have listen to that one Elizabeth was a Hungarian noblewoman from the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Known as the "Blood Countess," Báthory is often cited as one of the most prolific female serial killers. She allegedly tortured and murdered hundreds of young girls, driven by a belief that bathing in their blood would preserve her youth. While some historians argue that the extent of her crimes might have been exaggerated or politically motivated, the brutality and scale of her actions have cemented her place in history as a symbol of extreme cruelty.

    Moving to the modern era, Jiang Qing, also known as Madame Mao, played a significant role in China's Cultural Revolution from 1966 to 1976. As the wife of Mao Zedong, she was a key member of the Gang of Four, a political faction that orchestrated widespread purges, persecution, and propaganda campaigns. Jiang Qing's influence led to the imprisonment, torture, and deaths of countless intellectuals, artists, and perceived political enemies. Her actions contributed to one of the darkest periods in Chinese history, marked by cultural destruction and mass suffering.

    we've got a few exciting things coming up on the show over the next month or two firstly I be working for the past couple of weeks with another podcast called the rainy day rabbit holes, this is a brilliant podcast hosted by Shea and Jody and its all about the history of the pacific northwest. Towards the end of next months we will be doing a feed swap where one of their episodes will be realised here and vice versa. The ladies delve into anything from the Seattle Coffee wars to mysterious severed wash up on beaches in the pacific northwest, but they always keep it light hearted with their infectious humour, I have literally binged every episode. So please go and give them a listen they are brilliant.

    Secondly, soon I will be doing a collaboration with another brilliant show called Headlines and History with Jon Molik. Jon is a great guy who is an intelligence officer and his show is about current affairs and the history behind them. If you want to try and make sense of what is going on in the world Headlines and History is the show to listen two. I will be giving you a sneak peak of Jon’s show later in the episode.
