🪳 Welcome to the first episode of 2026!!! We enjoyed a lovely break but we're so excited to be back and in this first episode of the year, we are continuing our season 'TWISTED' where we talk all about the craziest stories in science throughout history. This week we are discussing the craze that went on in the 1820s where people were robbing bodies from graves and even committing murder to sell bodies to anatomy labs! Curious about how, why and what happened? Tune into this episode!

🫖 and we have a listener story who tells us all about her PI telling on her to the university DEAN, shouting at her in lab meetings and NOT doing her job properly! Liv and Taz didn't hold back on saying what they thought about this story...

🪳 Welcome to Season 7, TWISTED.
This season, we’re looking closely at the dark side of science. This week, we’re delving into a time where it was NORMAL to feed lice with your own blood, all in the name of science of course…
Typhus was ravaging populations in colder climates and poor living conditions. The bacteria spreads through body lice that live in the clothes of unsuspecting victims. This is the story of how a vaccine was developed… though it’s not as conventional as you might think…
