About this listen

This series contains discussion of human remains. Listener discretion is advised.

In the basement of one of the world's most prestigious universities, there was a classroom lined with a collection of human skulls from around the globe. Join award-winning journalist Marc Fennell (It Burns, Nut Jobs, Stuff the British Stole) as he takes you on a captivating global journey through the mysterious Morton Cranial Collection. You will encounter an Australian cannibal, explore the depths of ancient Egyptian looted tombs, and piece together the story behind one of America's most tragic acts of police violence. This is the story of racism in America and the world told as you’ve never heard it before. And it’s all waiting right inside the House of Skulls.

Despite the grim subject matter, this was one of the best non-fiction podcast/audiobooks I've heard in a long time. An intriguing subject that's equal parts horrific, racist, compassionate and informative. A rare 5 star review from me.

Superb and thought provoking

This is an historically important documentary about not only The House of Skulls, but also the important work of returning skulls stolen from indigenous peoples and of restoring recognition and dignity to burial grounds and the people interred therein. Thank you to Marc Fennel for producing it.

Excellent and historically valuable

Yes, it may have been "a different time", but that doesn't make it any less digusting. The lack of respect for other humans is alarming.

Shocking!
