Stephen Fry's 7 Deady Sins - I will take each one of the Seven Sins in turn, lay them out on the surgical table and poke, prod, pry and provoke in an attempt to try to anatomise and understand them; I hope and believe it will be, if nothing else, delicious fun and something of a change from the usual run of podcastery.

It is the early 1640s. The Dutch, who have done their level best to foster good relations with the local Indians because war isn't good for business, have a new governor in charge at New Amsterdam. Willem Kieft is a man of extraordinary ego and bad judgment, a coward and a weasel. Kieft launches an incredibly violent war with the many tribes on and around Manhattan on a tissue-thin pretext. The bloodletting is shockingly wasteful and sad, even across the years. In the end, he turns to John Underhill, the Puritan captain who led the forces of the Massachusetts Bay against the Pequots years before. The results are every bit as ugly. The episode ends with a story about a stonemason named John Ogden, without whom you would not be listening to this podcast.
