Episode: Burnt to a Cosmic Crisp | Giordano Bruno
Description: Giordano Bruno was an Italian philosopher born too early for his time. Despite starting his early career as a monk, he quickly traded out his priesthood attire for some travel breeches and started teaching his progressive beliefs about the infinite universe across Europe. His views about religion and philosophy were groundbreaking, yet controversial. In the 16th century, this was the perfect recipe to get the Roman Inquisition coming after you. Elizabeth and Megan pull out their terrible Italian accents again in this episode of Beheaded. Support the show
