The show this week is the Hellfire Club. An 18th-century secret society, is the topic of discussion, and it shows the great balancing act between vice, power, and secrecy which is timeless. This episode brings us back in time to the club, founded by the famous Francis Dashwood, who arranged activities that defied social and religious etiquette, dissolving holy and profane barriers. We trace the way these activities, marked by pseudo-rites and Roman bacchanalia, not only defied the etiquette of their era but also reflected today’s secret power centers such as Bohemian Grove and the Davos gatherings. As we turn pages from this infamous society, we consider human desire for secrecy and the attraction to it that never fades, and what occurs when power is unchecked by duty. Finally, we are left with the history of the Hellfire Club to consider today, wondering ourselves what exactly transpires when influential men move underground, out of public view from judgment.
