episode 18: Spank You Very Much - Teresa Berkley 1836
It's Flogging, Fustigation and Fun & Games with Regency London's most successful dominatrix (and BDSM pioneer) Teressa Berkley.
Visit her specially appointed salon in the heart of the city, pay at the door and bend over as we explore 19th century England's fascination with "six of the best."
- Did "Flogging Houses" have royal clients? (of course, they did)
- What was the legendary "Berkley Horse"? and how did it work?
- How many whips, rods, canes and switches did she have?
- What is "Punitive Greenery"?
The painful answers to all these questions and more can be found in episode 18 of Rogues Gallery Uncovered - the podcast of bad behaviour in period costume.
Thanks for listening. Stay Roguish!
