Welcome back to Shite Talk: An Irish History Podcast! Sorry for the summer break!

To kick off Season 9 we have a tale about two Irishmen murdering a bunch of Scots, and a few Irish for good measure, in Edinburgh back in the 1800s. No better man to join us and explain everything we got wrong than Edinburgh comedian Ben Verth!

Ben wrote the book on Burke and Hare, or technically it was a college dissertation, but who comes to this podcast for facts?

You can find Ben somewhere at a gig in Ireland, or over @BenVerth on the socials.

Or if you're looking for us online we're over @shitetalkhistory, Jason Brennan @jasonbcomedy, and Kevin Larney @kevlarcomedy.

Enjoy!
