40 分钟Hello, and welcome to another episode of No Such Thing as a Fish,
a weekly podcast coming to you from the QI offices in Covent Garden.
My name is Dan Schreiber, I'm sitting here with Anna Chazinski, Andrew Hunter Murray and James Harkin, and once again,
we have gathered round the microphones with our four favourite facts from the last seven days,
and in no particular order, here we go, starting with you, James.
Okay, my fact this week is that the Emperor of the Incas only ever wore an outfit once,
after which it was immediately burned.
I'd do that.
Do you?
Yeah.
Why you wearing the same jumper as you wore for the last three weeks?
Do anyone different jumper at seven in the last three weeks?
So this was the, he was called Sapa Inca, and he wore clothes, special clothes that no one else was allowed to wear.
Is there a theory as to why he couldn't wear them twice, would we not know?
We don't really know.
I think it's just because he's so important, and it's the ostentatious show of wealth, isn't it?
And his clothes were seen as divine because he was seen as divine.
It is a bit like the Duchess of Cambridge, who?
Well, if she reuses an outfit, the newspapers say, oh,
she's recycling her clothes, as opposed to only wearing everything once.
