Hello poison friends! I have wanted to discuss an illness so old and vile, it has made its mark on all of society and culture throughout centuries of its gruesome existence. Tuberculosis was also called the wasting disease, consumption, and the "white death," among other things and has plagued humanity for thousands of years. Lets look at its history and effects on societies and cultures throughout the world and how it finally became recognized as a bacterial infection (a vicious one at that). It eats away at the lungs and beyond as it can affect every organ system of the body and kills gradually. We'll discuss some of the more superstition reasoning for the disease given by earlier societies and the gruesome methods they tried to cure it. We also cannot talk about tuberculosis without mentioning its impact on fashion and beauty standards (yes you read that right) especially among the Victorians. This is too big a topic and too old a disease to not make into two parts! So lets get into it!

Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters! Please feel free to leave a comment or send us a DM for any questions, suggestions, or just to say, "hi."

Hello poison friends! We are bringing you a poison found in many garages and used as a coolant for engines and de-icing windshields and aircraft, and strangely also found in products such as snow globes in small amounts. Antifreeze poisoning cases reach about 5,000 annually here in the US due to accidental or intentional ingestion of the toxin. This poison wreaks havoc throughout the body and can kill rather quickly and horribly. Aside from discussing how this poison acts in the body and the unfortunate effects victims face, we have stories ranging from poor and fraudulent business practices using the toxin to straight murder. These cases get weird, devious, and invest in some good cabinet locks.

We greatly appreciate all of our listeners and supporters and love your comments and messages! Feel free to DM us on IG with any questions, suggestions, or honestly just to say "hi!"

It's beginning to look a lot like poison... ;)

We are discussing some Christmas related plants that have been rumored to be poisonous (and some are). So why are some plants even connected to Christmas? Well, beyond the obvious that some are red and green, like the ever popular poinsettia, there are a lot of stories and myths surrounding them. For instance, did you know mistletoe was revered by the celts and has its place in Greek/Roman symbolism and Norse mythology? Or where kissing under mistletoe even comes from? Lets have some festive fun this episode and talk about the history and toxicity of the plants we love to decorate with this time of year!

Just a heads up, we are taking a break next week from regular episodes but there will be a bonus episode on the patreon! Regular episodes will resume the following week! I hope everyones Christmas/Holidays are wonderful, whatever it is you celebrate! We are thankful for you all!
