About this listen
In 1816, under a sunless sky, 18 year old Mary Godwin dreamnt of a man who could re-animate the dead. But the story of Frankenstein: Or the Modern Prometheus wasn't born out of superstition, it was born out of the Ennlightenment itself.
This episode unravels how a secret Bavarian order, a volcanic winter and one radical family's obsession with reason combined to create the world's first modern monster.
From the real Illuminati in Ingolstadt to the electric horros of Galvanisim, discover how humanity's pursuit of perfection became its own cautionary tale.
Thank you for getting weird with us,
