Today's Show: REMEMBERING THE GUNPOWDER PLOT - 11.8.2017

Chris discusses the 412th anniversary of the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, remembering when Guy Fawkes, the most notorious criminal in British history, planted dozens of barrels of gunpowder beneath the houses of Parliament with the intent of blowing up King James I and the Protestant government of England.  While modern historians have revised the history, the original accounts show that the Jesuit Order was at the very heart of the plot, which is remembered in poetic form even to this day.
