About this listen
In this spellbinding episode of Champagne and Murder, Please, we uncork the dark legacy of the Salem Witch Trials—where fear, hysteria, and power turned neighbor against neighbor in one of history’s most infamous purges. But we don’t stop there. We journey even deeper into the idea of the "witch" through the lens of mythology, exploring the story of Circe, the enchantress of Greek legend who defied gods and men with spells, potions, and unapologetic power. From real-life executions to timeless goddess lore, we peel back the layers of misogyny, myth, and magic. Was it ever really about witchcraft—or simply women who refused to be controlled?
Pour a glass. This one’s as intoxicating as it is infuriating.
