In episode 44 of Half True History, Dan Parrella tells Pedro Lima (and Chris Crespo) all about the Borgias, Italy’s most notorious family, with a Pope who oversaw the Jubilee of 1500, which of course featured, The Contest. This story is bananas and full of mysterious falls down walls and off bridges as well as more than one possible murder by poisoning so we hope you enjoy as you sit around with your own family.
