76. Special Episode: Richard Walweyn Wears Padded Pants, London, England 1565
Manage episode 357770283 series 2593538
One day in London in 1565, Richard Walweyn was arrested for wearing the wrong pants, and put in jail until he could prove he owned some proper ones. And why were these the wrong pants? Cause they were puffed out, and he was a servant. Makes no sense, right? Nah. But in times of unease, people like to try to get everybody to wear the right clothes, eat the right things, buy the right stuff. Whatever those things are that year. We discuss sumptuary laws over time, we discuss the hell which would be More's Utopia, if you found yourself living in it, and Michelle, bless her heart, found Italian Traveling Earrings.
