    Episode 10: History is Storytelling: Executioners

    This week, the Sibnerds are talking all about one of Josef’s new classes this semester – specifically looking at the role of executioners. He has been reading The Executioner’s Journal for class, which inspired this episode. Disclaimer that some of the discussion around executioners is a little disturbing, but Josef does a good job curbing how dark and twisted some of the details are.
