About this listen

 We (Jonny, Phil, Dr. Sam) blast back in time to 1914 Sarajevo, where Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie have been shot at point blank range by Gavrilo Princip: one of seven young amateur would-be assassins. We have a detailed look at the murders, and put Princip (who would have been into Andrew Tate) and Franz (flower arranging family man who murdered cats and Koala beasrs) under our weird history microscope. We play a game of guess the tattoo in "Gavrilo or Gavrilno?", and then get into the outbreak of the Great War in Europe. We conclude by looking at FF's love of horrible bloodsports, and wonder if perhaps the Archduke (and the rest of the world) were punished for his cosmic karma.. BUT WHICH ITEMS DID WE BRING BACK WITH US? #weirdhistory #history #worldwar #darkhistory
