Season 4, Episode 21 marks a milestone: the 100th episode of The Dark History Podcast—and the beginning of a new era as the show officially joins the Radcast Network. In this immersive, narrative-driven special, Rob takes you deep into the choking streets of London in 1349, at the height of the Black Death.

Told through the final day of an imagined plague doctor, Thomas Avery, this episode blends historical fact with vivid storytelling to capture the fear, superstition, and relentless human suffering of a city on the edge of collapse. You'll walk with Avery through plague-ridden parishes, mass grave pits, shuttered homes, and the moral twilight that defined the era. Though fictional, his experience is built from real accounts, archaeological evidence, and surviving plague doctor contracts from across medieval Europe.

This is not just history—it’s a descent into the heart of catastrophe, illuminated through one man’s final reckoning.
Stay for the reflection at the end, where we pull apart the truths behind the story and the enduring legacy of the plague doctor.
