Yeah you are yea. 28 00:02:29,365 --> 00:02:33,845 Speaker 1: Georgie was a forty nine year old gentleman and had 29 00:02:33,885 --> 00:02:37,605 Speaker 1: just moved to London from Bulgaria with his wife, Annabelle, 30 00:02:38,165 --> 00:02:40,725 Speaker 1: and his young daughter. Side note, I really like the 31 00:02:40,805 --> 00:02:44,165 Speaker 1: name annabel haunted doll vibes. I had a cat named 32 00:02:44,165 --> 00:02:46,725 Speaker 1: Annabelle when I was in high school, and she was 33 00:02:46,845 --> 00:02:49,645 Speaker 1: evil and she lived in the basement because she hated 34 00:02:49,685 --> 00:02:52,725 Speaker 1: people so much. Are you sure it wasn't a haunted doll? 35 00:02:53,325 --> 00:02:58,725 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a good point, Nika. I couldn't be sure. Okay, Well, anyway, 36 00:02:58,845 --> 00:03:03,085 Speaker 1: were wouldn't any future child named ideas for Taylor? Okay, 37 00:03:03,525 --> 00:03:07,325 Speaker 1: that's okay. It was a pretty typical day in London, 38 00:03:07,485 --> 00:03:12,325 Speaker 1: September nineteen seventy eight. I assume it was raining, kind 39 00:03:12,325 --> 00:03:15,765 Speaker 1: of cold, maybe low sixties something like that. That's what 40 00:03:15,845 --> 00:03:18,525 Speaker 1: I imagined at taking us there. Yeah, it's probably like 41 00:03:18,565 --> 00:03:21,485 Speaker 1: there's some people at the pubs and then the queen's 42 00:03:21,605 --> 00:03:27,765 Speaker 1: there and then they're drinking tea. You're being a racist, Gabby. Okay. 43 00:03:28,125 --> 00:03:32,405 Speaker 1: So Georgie's on his way to work and there's this 44 00:03:32,525 --> 00:03:36,565 Speaker 1: stout man who runs into Georgie. He's holding an umbrella 45 00:03:36,645 --> 00:03:40,245 Speaker 1: and that quote pierces his skin and the man replies, 46 00:03:40,485 --> 00:03:43,085 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. He had some sort of foreign accent. But 47 00:03:43,085 --> 00:03:46,045 Speaker 1: Georgie's like, hmm, I don't okay whatever, So sorry, I 48 00:03:46,085 --> 00:03:48,205 Speaker 1: stabbed you with my pay I'm so sorry. Yeah, I 49 00:03:48,205 --> 00:03:50,965 Speaker 1: feel like we went through that really fast. So yeah, 50 00:03:51,005 --> 00:03:54,605 Speaker 1: the stout man stabbed Georgie with an umbrella. He was 51 00:03:54,645 --> 00:03:57,205 Speaker 1: just kind of like he stumbled and ran into him, 52 00:03:57,245 --> 00:04:00,045 Speaker 1: and then he was like, I he felt like what 53 00:04:00,165 --> 00:04:01,805 Speaker 1: felt like a bug bite and in the back of 54 00:04:01,845 --> 00:04:03,725 Speaker 1: his leg and he was like, oh, well, it's just 55 00:04:03,725 --> 00:04:06,685 Speaker 1: the tip of the umbrella and whatever that Oh okay, okay, 56 00:04:06,725 --> 00:04:09,285 Speaker 1: he just tripped, not a big deal. It was stabbing. 57 00:04:09,285 --> 00:04:11,405 Speaker 1: It was just more of like a prick, yeah, And 58 00:04:11,485 --> 00:04:13,725 Speaker 1: he was like oops, and the man was like, oops, 59 00:04:13,725 --> 00:04:18,485 Speaker 1: sorry with some fancy accent. M. So Georgia was like, 60 00:04:18,805 --> 00:04:20,805 Speaker 1: that's weird, but he was like, my life kind of hurts, 61 00:04:20,845 --> 00:04:23,125 Speaker 1: but like whatever, I'm gonna keep going with my day. 62 00:04:24,165 --> 00:04:27,125 Speaker 1: Georgie was a journalist, by the way, for the BBC. 63 00:04:27,405 --> 00:04:30,685 Speaker 1: He was also a freelancer for Radio Free Europe. That 64 00:04:30,805 --> 00:04:34,445 Speaker 1: is where he spoke his mind specifically about the communist 65 00:04:34,485 --> 00:04:38,885 Speaker 1: regime in Bulgaria, and he was pretty critical. He was 66 00:04:38,965 --> 00:04:41,445 Speaker 1: from there, so he was documenting basically what it was 67 00:04:41,485 --> 00:04:44,285 Speaker 1: like when he was living there, and so through his 68 00:04:44,365 --> 00:04:48,005 Speaker 1: job he was spreading this anti communist propaganda to the 69 00:04:48,045 --> 00:04:53,205 Speaker 1: people there. So no bueno. They were pissed, probably right, Okay. 70 00:04:53,605 --> 00:04:59,125 Speaker 1: So Georgie continues his day, you know, doing his job, journalisting, 71 00:04:59,285 --> 00:05:03,645 Speaker 1: doing what the journalists do, getting fact and m getting 72 00:05:03,645 --> 00:05:06,725 Speaker 1: all the facts. The next day he feels worse. He 73 00:05:06,885 --> 00:05:09,285 Speaker 1: gets home, he tells his wife about it. He's like, hmm, 74 00:05:09,325 --> 00:05:12,925 Speaker 1: I don't feel great. It's all started like when I 75 00:05:12,965 --> 00:05:15,165 Speaker 1: was walking down the street and this man ran into 76 00:05:15,165 --> 00:05:18,605 Speaker 1: me with his umbrella. And so a couple days later 77 00:05:18,605 --> 00:05:21,125 Speaker 1: he's like, m I'm getting worse. I need to go 78 00:05:21,165 --> 00:05:25,685 Speaker 1: to the hospital. I'm not okay. So Georgie goes to 79 00:05:25,765 --> 00:05:30,405 Speaker 1: the hospital. He's there for a couple of days, and 80 00:05:30,565 --> 00:05:35,045 Speaker 1: what happens. He expires, and his friends and family are 81 00:05:35,125 --> 00:05:39,725 Speaker 1: like what They're like, he wasn't necessarily like the healthiest guy, 82 00:05:39,765 --> 00:05:42,085 Speaker 1: but like he definitely shouldn't have died. This was like 83 00:05:42,125 --> 00:05:45,605 Speaker 1: so random, And the doctors were like, yeah, this is sketchy. 84 00:05:45,845 --> 00:05:48,085 Speaker 1: He shouldn't have died. I don't know what's going on. 85 00:05:48,605 --> 00:05:50,765 Speaker 1: So they were like, we're definitely gonna need to do 86 00:05:50,845 --> 00:05:53,365 Speaker 1: some We're gonna need to do some research into what's 87 00:05:53,485 --> 00:05:55,485 Speaker 1: what was going on here. I swear if this is 88 00:05:55,525 --> 00:05:59,005 Speaker 1: another unsolved mystery, Taylor, that you're bringing to the table, 89 00:06:00,685 --> 00:06:05,045 Speaker 1: it's only half solved. Half Well, why did it mean that? 90 00:06:05,245 --> 00:06:07,085 Speaker 1: I'm I mean, I feel like that's a rude job. 91 00:06:07,405 --> 00:06:11,845 Speaker 1: I was gonna say a rude job about I mean, 92 00:06:11,885 --> 00:06:14,085 Speaker 1: his friends being like you thought the healthiest go what 93 00:06:14,085 --> 00:06:15,525 Speaker 1: does that mean? Did he have like a lot of 94 00:06:15,565 --> 00:06:19,005 Speaker 1: fish and chips or like, No, that meant that means 95 00:06:19,045 --> 00:06:22,205 Speaker 1: that he actually did have like some liver issues, but 96 00:06:22,445 --> 00:06:25,805 Speaker 1: he like he was like he wasn't health super healthy, 97 00:06:25,845 --> 00:06:28,805 Speaker 1: but it's not like it was it was all being managed. Gabby, 98 00:06:28,845 --> 00:06:31,725 Speaker 1: do you think your friends would be like, she wasn't 99 00:06:31,765 --> 00:06:39,525 Speaker 1: the healthiest gal. But I don't know what I mean, fair, 100 00:06:39,605 --> 00:06:42,925 Speaker 1: I did you know was going an aggressive walk around 101 00:06:42,925 --> 00:06:45,605 Speaker 1: the block yesterday. So I feel like I'm getting back 102 00:06:45,685 --> 00:06:48,725 Speaker 1: on track. There is no track to be on, but 103 00:06:48,925 --> 00:06:50,845 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get it. I'm gonna be on a track 104 00:06:51,045 --> 00:06:55,845 Speaker 1: one day. I'm making one. I'm not strong enough to build, though, 105 00:06:55,885 --> 00:06:59,205 Speaker 1: so someone else has to build it for me. Okay, great, 106 00:06:59,245 --> 00:07:02,885 Speaker 1: all right, So Georgie, so what so what happened? So 107 00:07:03,005 --> 00:07:06,285 Speaker 1: they're like, he shouldn't have died. The doctors agree, They 108 00:07:06,325 --> 00:07:09,325 Speaker 1: go in, they do an autopsy, and they were like, 109 00:07:09,485 --> 00:07:13,525 Speaker 1: m this kind of looks like he was sufferings from poison. 110 00:07:14,565 --> 00:07:19,085 Speaker 1: So as they're like going through the autopsy, they investigate 111 00:07:19,125 --> 00:07:23,725 Speaker 1: where he was like stabbed if you will buy the umbrella, 112 00:07:23,805 --> 00:07:27,725 Speaker 1: and they find these two pellets made of platinum and iridium, 113 00:07:27,845 --> 00:07:29,845 Speaker 1: and they were like the size of a pinhead, so 114 00:07:29,845 --> 00:07:32,765 Speaker 1: they were really really small. There were two of them, 115 00:07:32,765 --> 00:07:37,885 Speaker 1: and these little pellets also contained traces of ricin, which 116 00:07:37,965 --> 00:07:41,045 Speaker 1: is poison. So these pellets, like the way that they 117 00:07:41,365 --> 00:07:44,165 Speaker 1: were made up, they looked like they were part of 118 00:07:44,205 --> 00:07:50,805 Speaker 1: like some kind of like shooting electronical weapon situation aka 119 00:07:50,965 --> 00:07:56,685 Speaker 1: the umbrella. That's not how my umbrella works. Yeah, well 120 00:07:56,965 --> 00:08:00,725 Speaker 1: they pisoned him. They poisoned him to shut him up 121 00:08:01,845 --> 00:08:07,885 Speaker 1: egg exactly. So three weeks earlier, there was a Bulgarian 122 00:08:08,005 --> 00:08:12,205 Speaker 1: exile and the same thing happened to him. He was like, 123 00:08:12,525 --> 00:08:15,085 Speaker 1: some dude came by and like ran into me with 124 00:08:15,125 --> 00:08:18,725 Speaker 1: his umbrella, and but this this guy lived to tell 125 00:08:18,805 --> 00:08:20,885 Speaker 1: the tale, and he was just like, I don't know, 126 00:08:20,965 --> 00:08:23,885 Speaker 1: like Georgie had said that he was worried that, you know, 127 00:08:23,925 --> 00:08:26,485 Speaker 1: people were going to come after him for like all 128 00:08:26,485 --> 00:08:28,925 Speaker 1: of this, you know, talking about the Communist party in 129 00:08:28,925 --> 00:08:31,405 Speaker 1: Bulgaria and how it was bad and all this stuff. 130 00:08:31,445 --> 00:08:36,365 Speaker 1: So so anyways, so it seems as if Georgie pissed 131 00:08:36,405 --> 00:08:40,485 Speaker 1: off the wrong people and they sent someone to silence 132 00:08:40,525 --> 00:08:43,685 Speaker 1: poor Georgie. That that has assumed like that's what happened, 133 00:08:43,685 --> 00:08:46,285 Speaker 1: but they do not have the individual that did it. 134 00:08:46,405 --> 00:08:49,005 Speaker 1: They really didn't have too much to go off of 135 00:08:49,085 --> 00:08:52,565 Speaker 1: besides a heavier set gentleman with an accent. That's it 136 00:08:52,885 --> 00:08:54,965 Speaker 1: everyone in London. I don''t know what to tell you. 137 00:08:55,725 --> 00:08:59,005 Speaker 1: I'm kidding, but like an accent that was like not 138 00:08:59,165 --> 00:09:04,965 Speaker 1: normal of England like a Moira Rose accent. Yeah, exactly, 139 00:09:05,325 --> 00:09:07,645 Speaker 1: I'm going to hit you at the umbrella. I didn't 140 00:09:07,645 --> 00:09:13,645 Speaker 1: do it. Well, Okay, So in nineteen eighty nine, the 141 00:09:13,725 --> 00:09:19,645 Speaker 1: communist regime in Bulgaria crumbles, and what happens. A bunch 142 00:09:19,645 --> 00:09:24,405 Speaker 1: of umbrella weapons are uncovered. And this is just proving 143 00:09:24,445 --> 00:09:30,165 Speaker 1: even further than that is exactly what happened to clownery Georgie, 144 00:09:30,245 --> 00:09:33,725 Speaker 1: y'all the clownery. I can't well, I just want to 145 00:09:33,805 --> 00:09:35,965 Speaker 1: mat because you know, there's like all those nukes all 146 00:09:36,005 --> 00:09:39,405 Speaker 1: over Russia and like on random ships and stuff. I'm 147 00:09:39,405 --> 00:09:41,965 Speaker 1: just imagining like you're finding these nukes, but then you're 148 00:09:41,965 --> 00:09:46,085 Speaker 1: like also finding like umbrella scattered everywhere. Well, I have 149 00:09:46,165 --> 00:09:49,285 Speaker 1: a picture of the umbrella too, So go to our 150 00:09:49,365 --> 00:09:53,005 Speaker 1: social yes and look for it. Communists are so dramatic, 151 00:09:53,885 --> 00:09:56,285 Speaker 1: so yeah, but you know who else is? Well I 152 00:09:56,285 --> 00:09:58,285 Speaker 1: don't think this is dramatic. I think this is fair. 153 00:09:58,685 --> 00:10:01,885 Speaker 1: So two thousand and six rolls around and the Statute 154 00:10:01,885 --> 00:10:06,085 Speaker 1: of Limitations is set to expire for this crime. So 155 00:10:06,245 --> 00:10:09,605 Speaker 1: investigators go to Bulgaria multiple times. They're like, we have 156 00:10:09,725 --> 00:10:12,325 Speaker 1: to bring justice for Georgie, Like we want to know 157 00:10:12,685 --> 00:10:15,005 Speaker 1: who it was, and they need to go to jail, etc. 158 00:10:15,605 --> 00:10:19,245 Speaker 1: They're dead probably, but okay, well, I mean that was 159 00:10:19,365 --> 00:10:22,725 Speaker 1: seventy not necessarily. Well. I also like the Statute of 160 00:10:22,765 --> 00:10:26,245 Speaker 1: Limitations is like thirty years where you know, for murder 161 00:10:26,325 --> 00:10:29,245 Speaker 1: usually it's never but I think maybe it's specifically like 162 00:10:29,285 --> 00:10:32,485 Speaker 1: an umbrella related death. It's like a short or statue, 163 00:10:32,565 --> 00:10:35,565 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, I mean it was thirty thirty years. 164 00:10:35,645 --> 00:10:38,525 Speaker 1: Was this? It was was the Statute of Limitations. But 165 00:10:39,485 --> 00:10:43,045 Speaker 1: no one was found to be the individual culprit who 166 00:10:43,045 --> 00:10:47,165 Speaker 1: did this to Georgie. But one individual did go to 167 00:10:47,245 --> 00:10:51,165 Speaker 1: jail for allegedly destroying documents that had information pertaining to 168 00:10:51,245 --> 00:10:55,685 Speaker 1: the case. So long story short, we know, but we 169 00:10:55,765 --> 00:11:01,565 Speaker 1: don't know. And don't piss off a foreign political regime. Wait, 170 00:11:01,605 --> 00:11:05,205 Speaker 1: that's it. I mean I feel like maybe we should 171 00:11:05,205 --> 00:11:08,565 Speaker 1: pass him off because you know, obviously people do bad shit. 172 00:11:08,765 --> 00:11:11,285 Speaker 1: I mean, there's some things going on in the world 173 00:11:11,365 --> 00:11:13,885 Speaker 1: right now where it's probably good to piss off regimes. 174 00:11:13,925 --> 00:11:17,085 Speaker 1: You know, there's just like a few things falling apart 175 00:11:17,285 --> 00:11:21,885 Speaker 1: in the world right now. I don't know, you, right, 176 00:11:22,725 --> 00:11:26,805 Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta piss him off to get somewhere, right, Um, 177 00:11:26,845 --> 00:11:29,765 Speaker 1: just be careful out there. Yeah, like if someone like 178 00:11:29,845 --> 00:11:32,645 Speaker 1: just be suspicious of people with umbrellas, I think that's 179 00:11:32,685 --> 00:11:36,205 Speaker 1: more like that's why I go outside usually stands umbrella, 180 00:11:36,365 --> 00:11:39,845 Speaker 1: just you know, risking it all. I like the rain 181 00:11:39,885 --> 00:11:42,605 Speaker 1: on my skin. I don't think there's a problem. I 182 00:11:42,725 --> 00:11:46,885 Speaker 1: like getting Yeah, do you ever feel I always feel 183 00:11:46,925 --> 00:11:52,365 Speaker 1: embarrassed holding an umbrella? If I yeah, it's like so extra. 184 00:11:52,685 --> 00:11:54,565 Speaker 1: The next time I see someone holding an umbrella when 185 00:11:54,565 --> 00:11:59,725 Speaker 1: it's not raining, I'm gonna be like communist. Yep, that's 186 00:11:59,725 --> 00:12:01,685 Speaker 1: what you should do, especially if you see a stout 187 00:12:01,725 --> 00:12:06,245 Speaker 1: man with an umbrella. Oh m hmm, look out with 188 00:12:06,285 --> 00:12:10,725 Speaker 1: an accent. That is fine phobic and xenophobic and just 189 00:12:10,925 --> 00:12:15,525 Speaker 1: terrible in general. But yes, I'm umbrella phobic, umbrella phobic, 190 00:12:15,765 --> 00:12:20,445 Speaker 1: which is the worst phobic of all. Yeah, exactly. Well, dang, 191 00:12:20,605 --> 00:12:23,885 Speaker 1: so there you go. That's the story of Georgie and 192 00:12:23,965 --> 00:12:32,165 Speaker 1: this terrifying umbrella weapon. That's really sad. Yeah what did 193 00:12:32,245 --> 00:12:34,845 Speaker 1: they do? Turns an episode? Do we say that's really sad? 194 00:12:35,325 --> 00:12:37,765 Speaker 1: What did they do with all the umbrellas that they found? 195 00:12:37,885 --> 00:12:41,485 Speaker 1: Did they just they're in museums? Okay, so they're just 196 00:12:41,805 --> 00:12:44,845 Speaker 1: but they still have the rising in them. Um, I 197 00:12:44,885 --> 00:12:47,845 Speaker 1: assume they took that out. Um, that seems like a 198 00:12:47,885 --> 00:12:53,045 Speaker 1: good choice house. Those pellets were like only like the 199 00:12:53,085 --> 00:12:55,205 Speaker 1: tip are like not the tip of the pin, but 200 00:12:55,285 --> 00:13:00,845 Speaker 1: like the pinhead, Like that's really small. I feel like personally, 201 00:13:01,405 --> 00:13:04,445 Speaker 1: and this is not me saying rip Georgie, but I'm different, 202 00:13:04,725 --> 00:13:10,245 Speaker 1: but just just saying, just saying because honestly, truly rip Georgie. Truly. 203 00:13:10,565 --> 00:13:12,725 Speaker 1: But here's what I'll say about this. If you are 204 00:13:12,765 --> 00:13:15,245 Speaker 1: in the seventies, you're speaking out against the regime and 205 00:13:15,325 --> 00:13:18,405 Speaker 1: you get pricked by a random man, I feel like, 206 00:13:18,445 --> 00:13:20,965 Speaker 1: go to the hospital immediately, right like that, like not 207 00:13:21,005 --> 00:13:23,445 Speaker 1: to be paranoid. And I only say that because I 208 00:13:23,485 --> 00:13:28,205 Speaker 1: grew up, you know, believing and just like slightly paranoid 209 00:13:28,605 --> 00:13:31,365 Speaker 1: that everyone was out to get me and so totally 210 00:13:31,445 --> 00:13:35,205 Speaker 1: casual and like my mom would tell me stories and Colombia. 211 00:13:35,245 --> 00:13:37,405 Speaker 1: I was like, hey, if someone asks you for the time, 212 00:13:37,485 --> 00:13:39,885 Speaker 1: don't turn around because they're gonna blow drugs in your 213 00:13:39,885 --> 00:13:41,605 Speaker 1: face and then take you, which is actually a real 214 00:13:41,685 --> 00:13:45,005 Speaker 1: drug that happens in Colombia. So I feel like, no, again, 215 00:13:45,085 --> 00:13:47,565 Speaker 1: not to say rip Georgie, I'm different, but I would 216 00:13:47,605 --> 00:13:50,565 Speaker 1: have gone to the hospital quick, well, with a quick 217 00:13:50,645 --> 00:13:53,485 Speaker 1: I will say he was a little bit he was 218 00:13:53,525 --> 00:13:57,045 Speaker 1: a little paranoid because he understands likely speaking out against 219 00:13:57,045 --> 00:14:00,885 Speaker 1: this regime. And secondly, though, I will say he thought 220 00:14:01,045 --> 00:14:04,445 Speaker 1: that like the umbrella thing like happened. But he said 221 00:14:04,485 --> 00:14:06,805 Speaker 1: that like it just like he had a bug bite 222 00:14:06,845 --> 00:14:08,765 Speaker 1: on the back of his leg, Like he didn't really 223 00:14:09,925 --> 00:14:11,325 Speaker 1: like it just felt like a bug bite. Like I 224 00:14:11,325 --> 00:14:13,045 Speaker 1: feel like I have so many bug bites right now, 225 00:14:13,365 --> 00:14:16,285 Speaker 1: I've just been gardening. Well, if he would have gotten 226 00:14:16,525 --> 00:14:18,965 Speaker 1: if he would have gone to the hospital immediately, would 227 00:14:18,965 --> 00:14:22,925 Speaker 1: he have been Okay, I don't know. He died. I 228 00:14:22,965 --> 00:14:25,165 Speaker 1: mean it was such a small amount, but like it 229 00:14:25,205 --> 00:14:28,045 Speaker 1: got into his bloodstream pretty quickly, and so he died 230 00:14:28,085 --> 00:14:34,805 Speaker 1: of just being toxic. Toxicity. Toxicity. Yeah, well, Nica, it's 231 00:14:34,845 --> 00:14:37,765 Speaker 1: also crazy that you asked that question, because I might 232 00:14:37,845 --> 00:14:42,245 Speaker 1: have some answers for you. God, oh my god, I 233 00:14:42,285 --> 00:14:44,365 Speaker 1: promise that we did not actually plan that. I just 234 00:14:44,365 --> 00:14:47,845 Speaker 1: genuinely want to know. After the break, all of your 235 00:14:47,925 --> 00:14:50,405 Speaker 1: rice and questions will be answered as long as we 236 00:14:50,445 --> 00:14:54,525 Speaker 1: don't get too scientific, because it's complicated. All right, We'll 237 00:14:54,565 --> 00:14:59,605 Speaker 1: be right back. Oh my god, look at this, we 238 00:14:59,685 --> 00:15:02,125 Speaker 1: are back with cadaver gals here to answer all of 239 00:15:02,245 --> 00:15:04,525 Speaker 1: Nica's question about rice and as long as they are 240 00:15:04,525 --> 00:15:11,285 Speaker 1: the questions that I know the answer too. Okay, anyway, 241 00:15:11,405 --> 00:15:17,805 Speaker 1: so Georgie, mister Georgie, he was poisoned by riceon and 242 00:15:18,365 --> 00:15:23,165 Speaker 1: ricin is a very effective poison. So Nica asked me 243 00:15:23,205 --> 00:15:25,245 Speaker 1: your question again, you know how much rice? And do 244 00:15:25,285 --> 00:15:27,965 Speaker 1: you need to ask me? Okay, well that wasn't the question. 245 00:15:28,005 --> 00:15:30,485 Speaker 1: But what I was going to ask is if I 246 00:15:30,485 --> 00:15:33,725 Speaker 1: would have gotten help, you know, day of Hey, I 247 00:15:33,765 --> 00:15:36,245 Speaker 1: got pricked. My mom told me I'll be drug one day. 248 00:15:36,285 --> 00:15:39,245 Speaker 1: I better go go to the hospital. Than would I 249 00:15:39,285 --> 00:15:46,205 Speaker 1: have survived? No? What? Yeah, oh my gosh, Okay, it's there. 250 00:15:46,325 --> 00:15:50,965 Speaker 1: It's there. So it's effective. As if we're not different. 251 00:15:51,645 --> 00:15:56,885 Speaker 1: We're not different, We're all in this. Okay. Sorry. Yeah, 252 00:15:56,925 --> 00:16:01,485 Speaker 1: even now, like even if you're doing anti communists propaganda 253 00:16:01,565 --> 00:16:04,085 Speaker 1: against you know, China or something, they pricked you with 254 00:16:04,205 --> 00:16:07,085 Speaker 1: some rice and umbrella there, then you would still be 255 00:16:07,125 --> 00:16:09,765 Speaker 1: dead because there is still there is no antidote to 256 00:16:09,845 --> 00:16:15,045 Speaker 1: rice and poisoning. Boo. That's terrifying. Yeah, that's like really scary. 257 00:16:15,125 --> 00:16:19,285 Speaker 1: Actually where do you find rice in? Oh? That's so 258 00:16:19,405 --> 00:16:24,165 Speaker 1: interesting that you ask. I'm genuinely asking, Gabby. Stop making 259 00:16:24,165 --> 00:16:27,405 Speaker 1: it sound like I'm doing this for you. Www. Dot 260 00:16:27,445 --> 00:16:31,805 Speaker 1: ricin dot com bring some promo code Cada our new 261 00:16:31,925 --> 00:16:38,645 Speaker 1: merchandise item. Ricin no um so. Ricon is a comes 262 00:16:38,685 --> 00:16:42,725 Speaker 1: from a naturally occurring plant, the castor bean plant. And 263 00:16:42,765 --> 00:16:44,605 Speaker 1: if you just got a bunch of castor beans and 264 00:16:44,645 --> 00:16:46,245 Speaker 1: you're like, this is what I want to put in 265 00:16:46,285 --> 00:16:48,285 Speaker 1: my case, Adela, Like you're not gonna, I mean, you 266 00:16:48,285 --> 00:16:50,485 Speaker 1: wouldn't put castor beans in a case, Adela, but just 267 00:16:50,525 --> 00:16:52,525 Speaker 1: if you wanted to, Like, you're not going to get 268 00:16:52,565 --> 00:16:55,725 Speaker 1: poisoned from the castor beans, but I do. They do 269 00:16:55,805 --> 00:16:58,405 Speaker 1: have traces of ricin in them. And it was first 270 00:16:58,405 --> 00:17:02,485 Speaker 1: discovered as a byproduct of going from castor beans to 271 00:17:02,565 --> 00:17:05,165 Speaker 1: castor oil. This was in like eighteen eighty eight. This 272 00:17:05,245 --> 00:17:07,405 Speaker 1: German and scientists was doing this and one of the 273 00:17:07,445 --> 00:17:11,285 Speaker 1: by products of that process was ricin, like small traces 274 00:17:11,325 --> 00:17:14,685 Speaker 1: of ricin. But the thing is ricin is like it 275 00:17:14,685 --> 00:17:18,445 Speaker 1: can be fatal even with the quantity of one or 276 00:17:18,485 --> 00:17:22,405 Speaker 1: two grains of salt. Oh my goodness. So yeah, you 277 00:17:22,485 --> 00:17:24,645 Speaker 1: really those small pellets that were being used as like 278 00:17:24,645 --> 00:17:27,165 Speaker 1: the distribution of it, Like, yeah, totally makes sense because 279 00:17:27,165 --> 00:17:29,485 Speaker 1: you really don't need that much ricin for it to 280 00:17:29,685 --> 00:17:33,965 Speaker 1: be fatal. But it isn't the ricin itself. Isn't you 281 00:17:34,045 --> 00:17:36,565 Speaker 1: have to manufacture it. It's not like you would just 282 00:17:36,605 --> 00:17:41,085 Speaker 1: find rice in, you know, in a forest. Well, if 283 00:17:41,125 --> 00:17:44,965 Speaker 1: you maybe ate all of the castor beans in the 284 00:17:45,125 --> 00:17:49,605 Speaker 1: forest of the castor bean forest, maybe, but in general, 285 00:17:49,685 --> 00:17:52,245 Speaker 1: in order for it to be like a fatal poison, 286 00:17:52,325 --> 00:17:54,485 Speaker 1: it is, it does need to. It's like a scientific 287 00:17:54,525 --> 00:17:57,325 Speaker 1: procect of like extracting the oil from the plant. It's 288 00:17:57,325 --> 00:17:59,565 Speaker 1: the byproduct of the rest of the oil. I'm just 289 00:17:59,605 --> 00:18:02,805 Speaker 1: making sure I won't like stumble into it. But it 290 00:18:02,925 --> 00:18:05,005 Speaker 1: is pretty easy to make, Like apparently that is a 291 00:18:05,005 --> 00:18:08,045 Speaker 1: pretty can just use your like at home laboratory to 292 00:18:08,245 --> 00:18:11,445 Speaker 1: make rice in if don't do it, I mean, that's 293 00:18:11,445 --> 00:18:14,085 Speaker 1: what people have been doing so rice in. There have 294 00:18:14,165 --> 00:18:16,565 Speaker 1: been like a variety of different times that people have 295 00:18:16,645 --> 00:18:19,165 Speaker 1: tried to use rice and to kill people, and like 296 00:18:19,205 --> 00:18:22,965 Speaker 1: Georgie's assassination is kind of like the most well known, 297 00:18:23,405 --> 00:18:25,725 Speaker 1: but there's a lot of people who have manufactured it. 298 00:18:25,845 --> 00:18:28,605 Speaker 1: Kind of like you know, there's like white supremacist groups 299 00:18:28,805 --> 00:18:30,285 Speaker 1: in the US who have tried to do it and 300 00:18:30,285 --> 00:18:33,445 Speaker 1: then you know, extended an envelopes to Obama or whatever. 301 00:18:33,685 --> 00:18:36,965 Speaker 1: Or there's like there's been terrorist groups in London that 302 00:18:37,005 --> 00:18:39,605 Speaker 1: we're making rice in, Like they thought Obama was just 303 00:18:39,645 --> 00:18:43,165 Speaker 1: opening his own mail. Well miss, yeah it was mister Obama, 304 00:18:43,445 --> 00:18:46,325 Speaker 1: but he opens it himself, nobody else checks it for him, 305 00:18:46,605 --> 00:18:51,885 Speaker 1: and he smells. White supremacist groups aren't exactly the smartest bunch, 306 00:18:51,965 --> 00:18:54,285 Speaker 1: so I mean, but they are making the rice in, 307 00:18:54,405 --> 00:18:56,445 Speaker 1: so you know they have some little projects they're doing. 308 00:18:56,485 --> 00:18:58,365 Speaker 1: So okay, Well you just said that it's very easy 309 00:18:58,405 --> 00:19:02,965 Speaker 1: to make. So true. Okay. Here's something about like my 310 00:19:03,045 --> 00:19:05,405 Speaker 1: imposter syndrome though, and just like how I don't feel 311 00:19:05,405 --> 00:19:07,445 Speaker 1: like I've accomplished anything with my life is that I 312 00:19:07,485 --> 00:19:10,165 Speaker 1: was reading about these small cases of people making rice 313 00:19:10,245 --> 00:19:11,725 Speaker 1: in and I was like, wow, all of these very 314 00:19:11,805 --> 00:19:15,005 Speaker 1: motivated people like interested in science on the weekends, you know, 315 00:19:15,125 --> 00:19:20,565 Speaker 1: making their ricin or whatever. But it seems so scary 316 00:19:20,645 --> 00:19:23,965 Speaker 1: to make it because with such a little amount could 317 00:19:24,085 --> 00:19:29,885 Speaker 1: kill you. Well people meth labs blow up all the time. Yeah, 318 00:19:30,045 --> 00:19:32,485 Speaker 1: or you accidentally try it and then you get hooked. 319 00:19:32,525 --> 00:19:36,045 Speaker 1: But also speaking of meth, though I never watched Breaking Bad, 320 00:19:36,285 --> 00:19:39,085 Speaker 1: but either gay. But I guess this might be a 321 00:19:39,125 --> 00:19:42,125 Speaker 1: spoiler for people who are mid watching Breaking Bad, but 322 00:19:42,245 --> 00:19:43,885 Speaker 1: I was reading that like at the end of the Sea, 323 00:19:43,965 --> 00:19:46,485 Speaker 1: at the very end of the whole series, there is 324 00:19:46,485 --> 00:19:48,965 Speaker 1: a rice in poisoning that happens, And there's like a 325 00:19:49,005 --> 00:19:52,005 Speaker 1: few plot points throughout the whole show, speaking as someone 326 00:19:52,005 --> 00:19:55,245 Speaker 1: who's ever seen it, where apparently ricin has been like 327 00:19:55,285 --> 00:19:58,525 Speaker 1: alluded to and then that happened. So when the season 328 00:19:58,645 --> 00:20:01,125 Speaker 1: with the season finale, there are actually like a few 329 00:20:02,085 --> 00:20:08,805 Speaker 1: Ricin poisonings that had been inspired off of Breaking Bad. Oh, 330 00:20:08,925 --> 00:20:14,445 Speaker 1: like in real life, like people, Yeah, okay, so like 331 00:20:14,485 --> 00:20:16,485 Speaker 1: the people listening to our show who will now be 332 00:20:16,525 --> 00:20:20,565 Speaker 1: inspired to do their rice and poisonings. But um don't. 333 00:20:20,685 --> 00:20:22,565 Speaker 1: That's what worries me the most. I don't want people 334 00:20:22,565 --> 00:20:25,445 Speaker 1: to say rad tortures are up because Cadaver Galas talked 335 00:20:25,445 --> 00:20:28,725 Speaker 1: about rad torton. You know, like rice and is on 336 00:20:28,765 --> 00:20:31,445 Speaker 1: the rise. But there was a woman in London who 337 00:20:31,445 --> 00:20:34,365 Speaker 1: poisoned and killed her mother by putting some rice and 338 00:20:34,445 --> 00:20:38,685 Speaker 1: in her mom's diet coke after her mom forbade her 339 00:20:38,765 --> 00:20:44,205 Speaker 1: from marrying her boyfriend. Lovingly, your parents should not have 340 00:20:44,365 --> 00:20:47,885 Speaker 1: that much sway on your life to where you have 341 00:20:47,965 --> 00:20:53,565 Speaker 1: to kill them. Well, I've summarized this, and once you 342 00:20:53,605 --> 00:20:55,405 Speaker 1: go into the article, it did seem like there was 343 00:20:55,445 --> 00:20:58,525 Speaker 1: a really unfortunate relationship between the mother and daughter based 344 00:20:58,565 --> 00:21:00,245 Speaker 1: on a lot of things. But then that was sort 345 00:21:00,285 --> 00:21:02,525 Speaker 1: of like the rice and turning point, you know, was 346 00:21:02,565 --> 00:21:05,005 Speaker 1: the boyfriend. I would I would say they didn't have 347 00:21:05,045 --> 00:21:09,005 Speaker 1: a great relationship. Geez, yeah, they's not. It seemed really 348 00:21:09,005 --> 00:21:13,485 Speaker 1: bad and the mom seemed it's very a very toxic 349 00:21:13,525 --> 00:21:17,645 Speaker 1: situation was happening, it seems, and so she ingested it. 350 00:21:17,645 --> 00:21:20,965 Speaker 1: The mom ingested it. You can inhale it as well, Okay, 351 00:21:20,965 --> 00:21:22,885 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, so, like you can inhale it, 352 00:21:22,925 --> 00:21:24,805 Speaker 1: you can ingest it, you can be pricked by it. 353 00:21:25,245 --> 00:21:26,965 Speaker 1: Can you put it up your butt? Like? You know? 354 00:21:27,045 --> 00:21:31,005 Speaker 1: I guess rycon is very diverse, a diverse portfolio, if 355 00:21:31,005 --> 00:21:37,405 Speaker 1: you will, Ye, rice and enema, but ricin though the 356 00:21:37,405 --> 00:21:41,005 Speaker 1: thing is about ricin is of course, over the years, 357 00:21:41,245 --> 00:21:45,045 Speaker 1: people have tried to develop as a biological biochemical weapon, 358 00:21:45,245 --> 00:21:47,525 Speaker 1: but rice and you know, even the United States has 359 00:21:47,565 --> 00:21:50,325 Speaker 1: tried to weaponize ricin, so like during World War One 360 00:21:50,805 --> 00:21:54,525 Speaker 1: they were coating bullets with ricin, and also where they 361 00:21:54,565 --> 00:21:57,125 Speaker 1: were trying to do these kind of like cluster like 362 00:21:57,445 --> 00:22:00,405 Speaker 1: bombs where they would like shoot ricin at people and 363 00:22:00,405 --> 00:22:02,085 Speaker 1: they would inhale it. But the problem is, you know, 364 00:22:02,085 --> 00:22:03,845 Speaker 1: there wasn't an anecdote, so they're like, what if it 365 00:22:03,885 --> 00:22:07,365 Speaker 1: gets into our like our soul's face because we can't 366 00:22:07,405 --> 00:22:11,045 Speaker 1: treat it. But then also ricin as a poison isn't 367 00:22:11,045 --> 00:22:13,085 Speaker 1: as effective as other things because it was with the 368 00:22:13,125 --> 00:22:16,325 Speaker 1: bullets it's like very sensitive to heat, so like the 369 00:22:16,445 --> 00:22:19,325 Speaker 1: poisoning will wear off if it's like too close to heat. 370 00:22:19,405 --> 00:22:22,285 Speaker 1: So then World War One ended and they're like, ah, whatever, 371 00:22:22,405 --> 00:22:26,245 Speaker 1: ricin wasn't as effective as as other things. World War 372 00:22:26,285 --> 00:22:31,765 Speaker 1: two rolled around and they try it again, but they 373 00:22:31,805 --> 00:22:33,885 Speaker 1: just like it could. It's just like not as good 374 00:22:33,925 --> 00:22:36,885 Speaker 1: as other poisons. So you know, and that's what I'm 375 00:22:36,925 --> 00:22:41,165 Speaker 1: always saying is like when you're developing your biological weapons 376 00:22:41,245 --> 00:22:43,765 Speaker 1: for you know, warfare and stuff, just like if something's 377 00:22:43,965 --> 00:22:45,885 Speaker 1: if it's not broke, don't fix it. So you know, 378 00:22:45,885 --> 00:22:47,885 Speaker 1: if you already have an effective poison, you don't need 379 00:22:47,965 --> 00:22:50,525 Speaker 1: the ricin, Okay, Like it's not very good at dispersing 380 00:22:50,525 --> 00:22:52,885 Speaker 1: over like for a lot of people. It's usually just 381 00:22:52,925 --> 00:22:56,885 Speaker 1: like a single assassination tool, So no need to keep 382 00:22:56,925 --> 00:23:02,005 Speaker 1: it for your single assassination absolutely, yeah, domestic affairs, yep, yeah, 383 00:23:02,165 --> 00:23:04,805 Speaker 1: keep it for your domestic affairs. And like why waste 384 00:23:04,845 --> 00:23:08,285 Speaker 1: time developping something when you already have something like anthrax 385 00:23:09,245 --> 00:23:12,085 Speaker 1: which is very effective. And it was interesting because like ricin, 386 00:23:12,405 --> 00:23:15,405 Speaker 1: usually if it's exposed to the elements, the poison will 387 00:23:15,445 --> 00:23:17,725 Speaker 1: wear off after you know a couple of days and 388 00:23:17,765 --> 00:23:20,525 Speaker 1: it won't be toxic anymore, where anthrax can be toxic 389 00:23:20,605 --> 00:23:25,605 Speaker 1: for decades. How convenient to now, Yeah, keep it in storage, 390 00:23:25,645 --> 00:23:27,565 Speaker 1: you don't. He's like, you know, it's a canned good. 391 00:23:27,645 --> 00:23:32,045 Speaker 1: It's great like spam. Yeah, just like spam next to 392 00:23:32,085 --> 00:23:38,845 Speaker 1: your anthrax. Just so yeah, it's not that popular as 393 00:23:38,885 --> 00:23:41,445 Speaker 1: a poison, and people have you know, there have been 394 00:23:41,885 --> 00:23:44,245 Speaker 1: several cases as I send the United States of you know, 395 00:23:44,285 --> 00:23:46,645 Speaker 1: sending letters of rice, and people also sent some rice 396 00:23:46,685 --> 00:23:48,565 Speaker 1: in to Donald Trump, you know, got to be fair 397 00:23:48,565 --> 00:23:51,885 Speaker 1: with all the presidents. And there's just other various groups 398 00:23:51,885 --> 00:23:54,885 Speaker 1: that have been busted by the FBI and stuff who 399 00:23:54,885 --> 00:23:57,605 Speaker 1: were trying to make some ric in. Or there's people 400 00:23:57,645 --> 00:23:59,525 Speaker 1: you know on the black market trying to get rice in, 401 00:23:59,885 --> 00:24:05,605 Speaker 1: but under there's like two different international like treaties that 402 00:24:05,765 --> 00:24:07,925 Speaker 1: say like, hey, these aren't the things you can you 403 00:24:07,965 --> 00:24:11,445 Speaker 1: can't use this in war. Uh. And so ricin is 404 00:24:11,445 --> 00:24:13,525 Speaker 1: a scheduled one, which is like one of the most 405 00:24:13,645 --> 00:24:17,925 Speaker 1: the most banned poison. So if you're trying to start 406 00:24:17,925 --> 00:24:20,725 Speaker 1: a war, unfortunately you got to play by the rules 407 00:24:20,725 --> 00:24:23,245 Speaker 1: of war and you won't be able to use ricin 408 00:24:23,605 --> 00:24:29,605 Speaker 1: just so you guys know for your wars. Great. Yeah, 409 00:24:29,685 --> 00:24:33,925 Speaker 1: so that's ricin. I feel like all my questions were answered, Like, Yeah, 410 00:24:34,125 --> 00:24:37,325 Speaker 1: my biggest qualm was, am I going to encounter a 411 00:24:37,445 --> 00:24:41,365 Speaker 1: rice in, you know, on a daytime being? Yeah, or 412 00:24:41,365 --> 00:24:43,885 Speaker 1: when I go, you know, go to castor bean farms, 413 00:24:44,405 --> 00:24:48,885 Speaker 1: but it seems like a forest if I go to 414 00:24:48,925 --> 00:24:51,205 Speaker 1: the custor bean forest, but it seems like it seems 415 00:24:51,205 --> 00:24:52,605 Speaker 1: like I won't. It seems like that will only be 416 00:24:52,645 --> 00:24:55,365 Speaker 1: if someone tries to assassinate me. So yeah, and then 417 00:24:55,365 --> 00:24:57,685 Speaker 1: you'll feel pretty special because there's only been a few 418 00:24:57,725 --> 00:25:04,085 Speaker 1: successful rice and assassinations. So wow. Yeah, well he's hoping 419 00:25:04,085 --> 00:25:07,205 Speaker 1: it's not successful. But hey, well now we're going to 420 00:25:07,365 --> 00:25:09,805 Speaker 1: change topics, but you know, we're going to keep it 421 00:25:09,845 --> 00:25:15,165 Speaker 1: in the our categories. So we're going from ricin to raccoons. 422 00:25:15,405 --> 00:25:18,245 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, right, Nika is going to take us down 423 00:25:18,285 --> 00:25:23,645 Speaker 1: the wild road of raccoons, the rack the rice to 424 00:25:24,285 --> 00:25:27,885 Speaker 1: raccoon road. They're in the Castor bean forest, the raccoons. 425 00:25:27,885 --> 00:25:31,165 Speaker 1: Wow wow wow. Yeah, well, you know that's a great 426 00:25:31,245 --> 00:25:34,325 Speaker 1: that's a great you know, lead in because raccoons can 427 00:25:34,365 --> 00:25:41,245 Speaker 1: be found in forests and so we're all connected, okay. Anyway, 428 00:25:41,485 --> 00:25:45,125 Speaker 1: we also live on Earth. Yeah, and we were all 429 00:25:45,125 --> 00:25:51,165 Speaker 1: on Earth. Okay. So I have been seeing raccoons in 430 00:25:51,245 --> 00:25:55,685 Speaker 1: woodland animals, not in my hallucinations, but used more and 431 00:25:55,725 --> 00:25:59,565 Speaker 1: more in memes. And I don't know, I think they're 432 00:25:59,605 --> 00:26:05,005 Speaker 1: reading them in nature. You've seen them in mad yes, 433 00:26:05,245 --> 00:26:09,485 Speaker 1: not any raccoon sightings, actually I don't. I think I've 434 00:26:09,485 --> 00:26:11,965 Speaker 1: seen a raccoon like a few times, but not any 435 00:26:12,485 --> 00:26:15,205 Speaker 1: anywhere near You see them more in your memes, definitely, 436 00:26:15,205 --> 00:26:19,485 Speaker 1: and TikTok absolutely. If you guys have seen that video 437 00:26:19,485 --> 00:26:22,365 Speaker 1: of the raccoon receiving cotton candy and then trying to 438 00:26:22,365 --> 00:26:25,405 Speaker 1: wash it and being sad because it washes away, or 439 00:26:25,685 --> 00:26:29,645 Speaker 1: that some other woodland animal whatever. Anyway, point being, they 440 00:26:29,725 --> 00:26:33,565 Speaker 1: are popular Japan. They're popular in Japan as a pet, 441 00:26:33,605 --> 00:26:37,165 Speaker 1: which is adorable and really cute. And I mean I 442 00:26:37,245 --> 00:26:41,085 Speaker 1: call myself a raccoon sometimes it's okay, not a furry though, Um, 443 00:26:41,205 --> 00:26:44,485 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with furries. Why are you a raccoon? Um? 444 00:26:44,525 --> 00:26:47,925 Speaker 1: Because like I love food, I love being cuddly, I 445 00:26:47,965 --> 00:26:51,765 Speaker 1: love being clean, that's it. And I have sharp talents 446 00:26:52,085 --> 00:26:57,725 Speaker 1: and you love eating cat food. Okay, Gabby, let's know. Um. 447 00:26:58,005 --> 00:27:02,165 Speaker 1: But okay, um, that's that's how I'm like a raccoon, right, Okay, 448 00:27:02,205 --> 00:27:05,285 Speaker 1: yeah that makes more sense. Yeah, don't put your trauma 449 00:27:05,285 --> 00:27:09,245 Speaker 1: on to me. Okay. So it begs the question as 450 00:27:09,245 --> 00:27:12,245 Speaker 1: I see these cute raccoon memes, has anyone died by 451 00:27:12,285 --> 00:27:16,565 Speaker 1: being attacked by raccos? The question it's like, we need 452 00:27:16,605 --> 00:27:20,045 Speaker 1: to know. This begs everyone who sees me with a raccoon. 453 00:27:20,085 --> 00:27:23,685 Speaker 1: They're just like, have they been deadly? So? Yes, yes 454 00:27:23,725 --> 00:27:26,645 Speaker 1: they have. So we are on our way to Musco 455 00:27:26,965 --> 00:27:31,965 Speaker 1: where this fifty So wow, Russia, raccas Russia rice in 456 00:27:32,685 --> 00:27:37,485 Speaker 1: what's going on? Wait? I want to know, though, do 457 00:27:37,525 --> 00:27:40,245 Speaker 1: you think there's any animal out there that hasn't killed 458 00:27:40,965 --> 00:27:44,845 Speaker 1: a person? I don't think so. My first brain goes 459 00:27:44,925 --> 00:27:49,485 Speaker 1: to like chipmunk or something, but chipmunks can also carry rabies. 460 00:27:49,605 --> 00:27:53,525 Speaker 1: Another are so truly, I think all animals have killed 461 00:27:53,605 --> 00:27:57,725 Speaker 1: someone at some point. Maybe not those like ocean bottom feeders, 462 00:27:57,805 --> 00:28:00,685 Speaker 1: you know, like they don't see humans that much. Let's 463 00:28:00,725 --> 00:28:05,365 Speaker 1: talk about let's just like land animals. Okay, yeah's land animals. 464 00:28:06,005 --> 00:28:15,285 Speaker 1: M hmm maybe an alamaze. Oh, but they're they're so silly. 465 00:28:16,005 --> 00:28:20,405 Speaker 1: So we're raccoons and yet okay, okay, continue with the raccoons. 466 00:28:20,405 --> 00:28:22,405 Speaker 1: But that is something to ponder. And I actually think 467 00:28:22,445 --> 00:28:25,245 Speaker 1: I'll post an Instagram question the day that we release 468 00:28:25,365 --> 00:28:26,925 Speaker 1: that because that I want to I want to hear 469 00:28:26,965 --> 00:28:31,365 Speaker 1: people's thoughts. Okay, so we're here, we're present, We're in Moscow. 470 00:28:32,245 --> 00:28:36,045 Speaker 1: There's this guy. His name's Vladimir. Love that name.

The barbecue is still going. You know, maybe 495 00:30:17,605 --> 00:30:20,725 Speaker 1: the vodka is flowing, who knows, and it's just a 496 00:30:20,725 --> 00:30:23,765 Speaker 1: bad situation. So they run to the hospital and the 497 00:30:23,805 --> 00:30:27,045 Speaker 1: doctors managed to stabilize him, stabilize his hand. It's fine, 498 00:30:27,405 --> 00:30:29,365 Speaker 1: and it seems like and again this is kind of 499 00:30:29,365 --> 00:30:31,965 Speaker 1: a I didn't find a ton of information on the story, 500 00:30:31,965 --> 00:30:34,445 Speaker 1: but it seems like that happened on a Sunday afternoon 501 00:30:34,645 --> 00:30:37,045 Speaker 1: and they kept him overnight, and then on Monday he 502 00:30:37,125 --> 00:30:43,525 Speaker 1: was doing better. Yay, good yea important positive signs of recovery. 503 00:30:43,885 --> 00:30:46,845 Speaker 1: And then his brother in like the little interview that 504 00:30:46,885 --> 00:30:50,165 Speaker 1: I read, states that he Vladimir had never missed any 505 00:30:50,285 --> 00:30:53,965 Speaker 1: like of his vaccines or like anti rabies vaccines, anything 506 00:30:54,005 --> 00:30:57,325 Speaker 1: like that. He goes all vaxed, waxed for a hot 507 00:30:57,525 --> 00:31:02,965 Speaker 1: you know, hot Russian boy summer Russian bax vaxed, blat 508 00:31:03,005 --> 00:31:09,885 Speaker 1: absolutely bax wa. Yes, I'm vax, I'm wax and I'm blad. Okay. 509 00:31:10,325 --> 00:31:13,525 Speaker 1: So he was doing better and it seemed like he 510 00:31:13,565 --> 00:31:16,765 Speaker 1: was going to be okay, and then his health took 511 00:31:16,805 --> 00:31:21,125 Speaker 1: a nose dive Monday night, and apparently the rabies that 512 00:31:21,165 --> 00:31:25,125 Speaker 1: the raccoon was carrying had entered his nervous system and 513 00:31:25,445 --> 00:31:30,685 Speaker 1: caused organ failure and he shortly died. No, oh, no, 514 00:31:31,165 --> 00:31:33,445 Speaker 1: it's sad. I thought it was just a mean raccoon, 515 00:31:34,005 --> 00:31:36,205 Speaker 1: but it was a rabies raccoon. It was a rabies 516 00:31:36,325 --> 00:31:39,365 Speaker 1: racoon exactly. Yeah, it was a mean raccoon with rabies. Yes. 517 00:31:40,165 --> 00:31:44,005 Speaker 1: So doctors were like, well, let's go check on the 518 00:31:44,725 --> 00:31:46,845 Speaker 1: on the raccoon and see if you know he had rabies, 519 00:31:46,845 --> 00:31:49,685 Speaker 1: because they didn't know if the raccoon had rabies not 520 00:31:49,925 --> 00:31:53,685 Speaker 1: if that was what was affecting Vladimir's health. And sure 521 00:31:53,765 --> 00:31:57,365 Speaker 1: enough they got the raccoon's body. Yes, it was infested 522 00:31:57,765 --> 00:32:01,725 Speaker 1: with rabies and that how did they find the raccoon 523 00:32:02,045 --> 00:32:04,645 Speaker 1: because Vladimir had killed the raccoon, so the raccoon was 524 00:32:04,645 --> 00:32:11,645 Speaker 1: still at the barbee okay, raccoons at the barbecue, um okay. 525 00:32:12,565 --> 00:32:15,485 Speaker 1: So that's what killed him, and it's really sad. And 526 00:32:15,565 --> 00:32:23,125 Speaker 1: that is the only known raccoon death that what I 527 00:32:23,325 --> 00:32:28,205 Speaker 1: found so far on the internet. However, so far, how 528 00:32:28,285 --> 00:32:30,765 Speaker 1: will you never know? However, it seems like about two 529 00:32:30,805 --> 00:32:33,525 Speaker 1: to three people a year die of rabies, at least 530 00:32:33,565 --> 00:32:36,485 Speaker 1: in the US, so it's not like a very common thing. 531 00:32:36,685 --> 00:32:39,645 Speaker 1: But it did kind of explode. It seems like in 532 00:32:39,765 --> 00:32:44,645 Speaker 1: the nineteen seventies ish, so you know, rabies something to 533 00:32:44,725 --> 00:32:48,245 Speaker 1: watch out for. And there was another raccoon attack I found. 534 00:32:48,445 --> 00:32:50,565 Speaker 1: Do you guys want to hear it? Just stick with 535 00:32:50,565 --> 00:32:53,725 Speaker 1: the death, Okay, this one's kind of bananas. So this 536 00:32:53,805 --> 00:32:57,205 Speaker 1: was in Vancouver in two thousand and seventeen, and this 537 00:32:57,205 --> 00:32:59,365 Speaker 1: woman walked out of her house and into her backyard 538 00:32:59,405 --> 00:33:03,245 Speaker 1: to take out her little Maltese dog. His name was 539 00:33:03,365 --> 00:33:09,645 Speaker 1: Rocky and this y are yes, oh another he has 540 00:33:09,685 --> 00:33:12,925 Speaker 1: another art and this raccoon went straight for her dog 541 00:33:13,365 --> 00:33:16,965 Speaker 1: and attacked Rocky. Yeah, and she tried to get the 542 00:33:17,085 --> 00:33:19,885 Speaker 1: raccoon away, but he literally and the raccoon was unnamed, 543 00:33:19,925 --> 00:33:22,085 Speaker 1: unnamed raccoon, so I don't, I don't. I can't give 544 00:33:22,085 --> 00:33:24,485 Speaker 1: you the raccoon's name. But he wouldn't budge like. The 545 00:33:24,565 --> 00:33:28,365 Speaker 1: raccoon was just set on attacking Rocky and so this 546 00:33:28,445 --> 00:33:31,325 Speaker 1: and this is a horrible image, but I'm gonna say it. 547 00:33:31,765 --> 00:33:35,005 Speaker 1: She said that she slammed both the dog and the 548 00:33:35,085 --> 00:33:38,885 Speaker 1: raccoon against her deck multiple times because the raccoon just 549 00:33:38,925 --> 00:33:43,845 Speaker 1: would not let go. No, no, Finally the raccoon let 550 00:33:43,925 --> 00:33:46,965 Speaker 1: Rocky go and went for her and started attacking and 551 00:33:47,045 --> 00:33:49,925 Speaker 1: biting and scratching her, and apparently both of her neighbors 552 00:33:49,965 --> 00:33:51,885 Speaker 1: were out of town, so no one was hearing what 553 00:33:51,925 --> 00:33:54,245 Speaker 1: was going on. She was being attacked by raccoon for 554 00:33:54,325 --> 00:34:01,165 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes, being like scratched and bitten at and like 555 00:34:01,325 --> 00:34:04,005 Speaker 1: totally attacked by a raccoon, which is kind of scary. 556 00:34:04,565 --> 00:34:09,085 Speaker 1: That's gotta be a long fifteen minutes, honestly, yeah, like, yeah, 557 00:34:09,125 --> 00:34:11,325 Speaker 1: I just fifteen minutes doesn't seem like a very long time, 558 00:34:11,325 --> 00:34:13,085 Speaker 1: but if you're being a tackway raccoon, that is a 559 00:34:13,525 --> 00:34:17,525 Speaker 1: long time a good amount of time to be in pain. 560 00:34:17,805 --> 00:34:23,605 Speaker 1: So she finally runs toward her her door. She throws 561 00:34:23,685 --> 00:34:26,725 Speaker 1: Rocky inside. She finally gets the raccoon off of her, 562 00:34:27,125 --> 00:34:30,325 Speaker 1: closes the door. She's bleeding and you can see, I 563 00:34:30,365 --> 00:34:31,925 Speaker 1: don't know, I don't think we should post this on 564 00:34:31,965 --> 00:34:33,525 Speaker 1: Instagram because I don't want to get a band, but 565 00:34:33,565 --> 00:34:36,445 Speaker 1: you can look it up. Her like khaki shorts are 566 00:34:38,085 --> 00:34:41,325 Speaker 1: like totally bleeding, Like her legs are bleeding, her arms 567 00:34:41,325 --> 00:34:44,005 Speaker 1: are bleeding. It was just a terrible sight. She calls 568 00:34:44,045 --> 00:34:46,445 Speaker 1: nine on one and one picks her up. They take 569 00:34:46,485 --> 00:34:51,285 Speaker 1: her to the hospital. Thankfully, she's okay. She has at 570 00:34:51,365 --> 00:34:54,885 Speaker 1: least a dozen puncture wounds by the raccoon. And yeah, 571 00:34:54,925 --> 00:34:58,045 Speaker 1: there's pictures and her legs are just like totally scratched up, 572 00:34:58,125 --> 00:35:02,485 Speaker 1: bright red. It's just terrible what happened. A Rocky Rocky 573 00:35:02,685 --> 00:35:05,885 Speaker 1: Rocky was also okay, thankfully good, So they were both okay. 574 00:35:05,885 --> 00:35:10,285 Speaker 1: They both got stitches, she received a tedanus shot, and 575 00:35:10,725 --> 00:35:12,885 Speaker 1: it seems like she was fine. What's kind of weird 576 00:35:12,885 --> 00:35:14,885 Speaker 1: and scary to me is that she didn't get an 577 00:35:14,885 --> 00:35:20,205 Speaker 1: anti rabies shot immediately, which is weird because they said, nope, 578 00:35:20,245 --> 00:35:22,205 Speaker 1: that's not necessary. We haven't had a case of rabies 579 00:35:22,245 --> 00:35:26,125 Speaker 1: in twenty years. But like, if raccoon randomly attacks you, 580 00:35:26,605 --> 00:35:29,725 Speaker 1: I feel like rabies is you know something that could 581 00:35:30,485 --> 00:35:33,765 Speaker 1: Is there a way to test rabies? Maybe? And maybe 582 00:35:33,765 --> 00:35:36,085 Speaker 1: they tested, And I just that the article didn't say 583 00:35:36,085 --> 00:35:38,285 Speaker 1: whether or not they tested for rabies. What the article 584 00:35:38,325 --> 00:35:40,885 Speaker 1: did say is they hadn't had a case in twenty years, 585 00:35:41,085 --> 00:35:42,605 Speaker 1: So I don't know if the doctors were just being 586 00:35:43,085 --> 00:35:45,965 Speaker 1: too chillaxed or if they just tested and we and 587 00:35:46,045 --> 00:35:48,605 Speaker 1: the articles just didn't tell us. But but yeah, but 588 00:35:48,805 --> 00:35:52,765 Speaker 1: thankfully she was okay. The raccoon got away, so they 589 00:35:52,805 --> 00:35:55,045 Speaker 1: could not confirm or deny whether it had rabies. The 590 00:35:55,125 --> 00:35:57,805 Speaker 1: raccoon was not killed with the bare hands of a 591 00:35:57,885 --> 00:36:01,925 Speaker 1: Russian man like Vladimir, so you know, authority said it 592 00:36:01,925 --> 00:36:04,485 Speaker 1: could have felt threatened because maybe it was like near 593 00:36:04,525 --> 00:36:08,605 Speaker 1: a mating area that you know, she wasn't aware of. 594 00:36:08,605 --> 00:36:10,845 Speaker 1: That apparently was also mating season, which it looks like 595 00:36:10,845 --> 00:36:15,365 Speaker 1: it's from January to April ish for raccoons or march 596 00:36:15,685 --> 00:36:20,365 Speaker 1: um from what I read. So okay, great, cool, So 597 00:36:21,325 --> 00:36:23,965 Speaker 1: who knows what happened with that raccoon. Maybe maybe it 598 00:36:24,005 --> 00:36:26,165 Speaker 1: was just frightened. Maybe it had babies nearby. You know, 599 00:36:26,845 --> 00:36:30,165 Speaker 1: I don't know, I kind of it's not about sides, 600 00:36:30,325 --> 00:36:34,765 Speaker 1: but who side are you taking? It's not about sides, 601 00:36:34,845 --> 00:36:41,045 Speaker 1: but another Instagram poll. So those are my two raccoon 602 00:36:41,045 --> 00:36:44,205 Speaker 1: attack stories. It is very possible for raccoon to kill you, 603 00:36:44,885 --> 00:36:47,925 Speaker 1: very actually kind of scary possible. And I don't know. 604 00:36:48,085 --> 00:36:50,605 Speaker 1: I've been thinking a lot about woodland animals lately. Also, 605 00:36:50,685 --> 00:36:54,245 Speaker 1: because a hawk almost attacked like almost like just swept 606 00:36:54,325 --> 00:36:56,765 Speaker 1: Kimchi away while Kim she was outside, Kim she's my cat, 607 00:36:56,885 --> 00:36:59,605 Speaker 1: while kom she was outside, made me start thinking I 608 00:36:59,645 --> 00:37:04,445 Speaker 1: would literally I would murder anything or anyone that tried 609 00:37:04,445 --> 00:37:08,085 Speaker 1: to take kimchi. So I'm sure like this woman's reaction 610 00:37:08,125 --> 00:37:10,445 Speaker 1: to this raccord attacking her dog, like, yeah, I would 611 00:37:10,445 --> 00:37:12,965 Speaker 1: go ferrell. I would go ferreal on anyone or anything 612 00:37:13,485 --> 00:37:17,205 Speaker 1: and see maybe anything, I don't care. Maybe the raccoon 613 00:37:17,445 --> 00:37:23,525 Speaker 1: had it's pet nearby and was just protecting animal across 614 00:37:23,565 --> 00:37:28,325 Speaker 1: the pit. The raccoon has like a pet baby duck. Oh, 615 00:37:28,405 --> 00:37:30,645 Speaker 1: it's cute again. It's cute again. I can't even be 616 00:37:30,685 --> 00:37:35,325 Speaker 1: mad at it. It's weird because you know, raccoons are 617 00:37:35,365 --> 00:37:38,525 Speaker 1: so cute you want to like you. They're not super 618 00:37:38,565 --> 00:37:41,605 Speaker 1: scary because they're so cute, but they they've got a 619 00:37:41,605 --> 00:37:44,725 Speaker 1: little mean streak. I think. Yeah, if you see pictures 620 00:37:44,725 --> 00:37:47,885 Speaker 1: of them, you know, they can have their little growley moments. 621 00:37:47,925 --> 00:37:51,085 Speaker 1: They're little snout crinkles and acute little way and it 622 00:37:51,085 --> 00:37:54,445 Speaker 1: can be kind of scary. Yeah, they're they're intense, they're 623 00:37:54,605 --> 00:37:57,525 Speaker 1: little talons are super sharp, and I don't know I 624 00:37:57,525 --> 00:37:59,765 Speaker 1: would be I would be scared if raccoon attacked me, 625 00:37:59,885 --> 00:38:04,005 Speaker 1: I'll say that. And apparently they're invading Germany, so that's fun. 626 00:38:05,645 --> 00:38:09,085 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess finally something invading Germany, not the 627 00:38:09,085 --> 00:38:15,765 Speaker 1: other way around, kid, I'm not. I will say this 628 00:38:15,765 --> 00:38:21,245 Speaker 1: this the tabloids the Sun literally their article said, Nazi 629 00:38:21,405 --> 00:38:24,685 Speaker 1: raccoons are on the war path, marching across Europe, just 630 00:38:24,765 --> 00:38:27,845 Speaker 1: like the Nazis did, because apparently Germany has like an 631 00:38:27,845 --> 00:38:30,205 Speaker 1: invasion of raccoons and they're starting to go to like 632 00:38:30,685 --> 00:38:35,085 Speaker 1: other countries. So you know, if anyone's xenophobic, it's the Sun, 633 00:38:35,165 --> 00:38:37,525 Speaker 1: it's the Tabloid. But whatever. Well, it's like how in 634 00:38:37,525 --> 00:38:40,165 Speaker 1: the US we have the feral pigs, we have all 635 00:38:40,165 --> 00:38:42,965 Speaker 1: those like super pigs that are invading, so we all 636 00:38:43,005 --> 00:38:47,645 Speaker 1: have our own, you know, animal invasion problems exactly. And 637 00:38:48,005 --> 00:38:54,325 Speaker 1: Florida's got those, has the iguanas and also freaking everywhere 638 00:38:54,645 --> 00:39:00,685 Speaker 1: not met gators, though we debunked that on this podcast. Well, 639 00:39:00,725 --> 00:39:05,765 Speaker 1: what I'm thinking now is I think, as an entrepreneur or, 640 00:39:06,325 --> 00:39:09,685 Speaker 1: I think I'm going to start a defense class, like 641 00:39:09,725 --> 00:39:12,645 Speaker 1: a self defense class that is specifically how to protect 642 00:39:12,645 --> 00:39:16,045 Speaker 1: yourself against a raccoon. Okay, I think that will be 643 00:39:16,085 --> 00:39:20,205 Speaker 1: really a good idea. Yeah, And I just the specificity 644 00:39:20,205 --> 00:39:28,245 Speaker 1: is I called Girl Scouts, girl Scouts, women Scouts, lady Scouts. 645 00:39:28,525 --> 00:39:30,445 Speaker 1: Is that what they teach you in Girl Scouts is 646 00:39:30,445 --> 00:39:33,285 Speaker 1: how to defend yourself against a raccoon. I don't know, 647 00:39:33,325 --> 00:39:35,805 Speaker 1: it seems plausible. I wasn't in Girl Scouts. I don't 648 00:39:35,845 --> 00:39:38,645 Speaker 1: think that's good cookies. I would also like for gappy 649 00:39:38,645 --> 00:39:42,485 Speaker 1: to silk cookies or something. Um, yeah, defend my self 650 00:39:42,525 --> 00:39:48,325 Speaker 1: defense class or ice cream? You know. Okay, you're just hungry. Okay, Yeah, 651 00:39:48,605 --> 00:39:53,445 Speaker 1: Taylor wants a tread big raccoon vibes. Also, I feel 652 00:39:53,485 --> 00:39:55,685 Speaker 1: like with the dog named Rocky, I feel like this 653 00:39:55,805 --> 00:39:59,325 Speaker 1: could be the next Rocky movie. You know, it's Rocky 654 00:39:59,405 --> 00:40:02,325 Speaker 1: the dog versus We're gonna call him. What's a good 655 00:40:02,765 --> 00:40:06,605 Speaker 1: raccoon name? That's hard to than r r No for what? 656 00:40:08,285 --> 00:40:14,005 Speaker 1: Oh Randy two Randy and Rocky Rocky versus Randy. All right, well, 657 00:40:14,125 --> 00:40:19,365 Speaker 1: coming up, we're gonna talk a little bit about rabies. 658 00:40:20,885 --> 00:40:26,565 Speaker 1: Give it up for rabies. All right, we'll be right back. Okay, 659 00:40:26,685 --> 00:40:29,645 Speaker 1: here we are. It's cadaver Gals, our last little part, 660 00:40:29,685 --> 00:40:32,765 Speaker 1: and we're gonna be talking a little bit about rabies. Okay. 661 00:40:33,445 --> 00:40:36,085 Speaker 1: And so, Nika, you were talking about like in the 662 00:40:36,205 --> 00:40:40,445 Speaker 1: US there is only like two or three rabies deaths 663 00:40:40,485 --> 00:40:42,845 Speaker 1: a year, and most of them in the US have 664 00:40:42,965 --> 00:40:47,685 Speaker 1: been attributed to bats. M hmm, so they're not on 665 00:40:47,725 --> 00:40:49,725 Speaker 1: our good side right now. I used to love bots. 666 00:40:49,765 --> 00:40:55,725 Speaker 1: What's wrong, Oh, coronavirus? Well right, yeah, coronavirus. But rabies 667 00:40:55,885 --> 00:40:58,805 Speaker 1: is a really you know, it's a cool virus because 668 00:40:58,845 --> 00:41:02,005 Speaker 1: it can jump between like, you know, lots of different species, 669 00:41:02,005 --> 00:41:04,165 Speaker 1: so you know, good for it. It's all like me. 670 00:41:04,285 --> 00:41:07,285 Speaker 1: It's also an entrepreneur, you know, going into new spaces, 671 00:41:07,285 --> 00:41:10,965 Speaker 1: a diverse portfolio. And but the thing is, there's actually 672 00:41:11,005 --> 00:41:15,325 Speaker 1: about annually there's sixty thousand people who die of rabies worldwide, 673 00:41:15,885 --> 00:41:19,365 Speaker 1: and most of this happens in developing nations, and it 674 00:41:19,445 --> 00:41:22,685 Speaker 1: happens particularly with kids. I think it's like forty percent 675 00:41:22,725 --> 00:41:26,525 Speaker 1: of deaths are kids and ninety five percent of the 676 00:41:26,605 --> 00:41:35,525 Speaker 1: rabies death worldwide. I am so sorry, Taylor come from dogs, Yeah, 677 00:41:35,605 --> 00:41:40,765 Speaker 1: rabies loves doggies. I hate that. And I don't know 678 00:41:40,925 --> 00:41:44,525 Speaker 1: this sounds familiar in this current moment of time. But um, 679 00:41:44,685 --> 00:41:50,325 Speaker 1: rabies is a totally preventable disease, but unfortunately access to 680 00:41:50,405 --> 00:41:55,245 Speaker 1: resources around the world is not equally distributed. So often 681 00:41:55,285 --> 00:41:57,205 Speaker 1: in the places you know, where there are the most rabies, 682 00:41:57,245 --> 00:42:00,565 Speaker 1: they don't have access to like rabies vaccines and also 683 00:42:01,165 --> 00:42:02,565 Speaker 1: the two things that you do. Obviously you have the 684 00:42:02,645 --> 00:42:06,245 Speaker 1: rabies vaccines for humans, but then also you vaccinate dogs 685 00:42:06,285 --> 00:42:10,765 Speaker 1: against rabies. So Gus, Gus is vaccinated. Don't you worry? Yeah, 686 00:42:10,845 --> 00:42:14,325 Speaker 1: good job, Gus, you did it. So here's how rabies works, 687 00:42:15,325 --> 00:42:20,685 Speaker 1: Topsided tell me okay, So rabies is a virus called 688 00:42:20,685 --> 00:42:23,845 Speaker 1: the Lissa virus, which is the Lyssa is Greek for 689 00:42:24,045 --> 00:42:26,805 Speaker 1: rage and fury, and as I was saying, it can 690 00:42:26,845 --> 00:42:30,765 Speaker 1: be transmitted among species, so bats, raccoons, dogs, humans, usually 691 00:42:30,805 --> 00:42:33,485 Speaker 1: squirrels don't get it because usually if someone would you know, 692 00:42:33,485 --> 00:42:36,685 Speaker 1: if a raccoon or something would give rabies to a squirrel, 693 00:42:36,765 --> 00:42:39,125 Speaker 1: the squirrel would just be dead from being been by 694 00:42:39,165 --> 00:42:42,885 Speaker 1: a raccoon, so you know, they just get gobbled instead 695 00:42:42,925 --> 00:42:47,685 Speaker 1: of getting rabies. Gobble. But also possums though, blossoms, yeah, 696 00:42:47,725 --> 00:42:50,365 Speaker 1: gobble gobble. Possums though, I feel like possums are our 697 00:42:50,365 --> 00:42:52,045 Speaker 1: friends because you know, they eat all those ticks. But 698 00:42:52,085 --> 00:42:54,925 Speaker 1: also they they can get rabies, but they're because they 699 00:42:54,925 --> 00:42:58,005 Speaker 1: are marsupial. Their body temperature is low enough that the 700 00:42:58,085 --> 00:43:00,285 Speaker 1: rabies doesn't really do a good job. So it's usually 701 00:43:00,285 --> 00:43:04,045 Speaker 1: like a hot or blooded hot or blooded creature that 702 00:43:04,045 --> 00:43:06,965 Speaker 1: will get that's gonna say. I thought that they couldn't 703 00:43:06,965 --> 00:43:09,805 Speaker 1: get it. For some reason, I didn't know that possums 704 00:43:09,845 --> 00:43:13,685 Speaker 1: eight ticks. Possums are like good, they do good stuff. 705 00:43:13,765 --> 00:43:17,725 Speaker 1: They're so silly looking. But according to a meme that 706 00:43:17,885 --> 00:43:22,405 Speaker 1: I saw in any given Tick season one, possum can 707 00:43:22,445 --> 00:43:26,605 Speaker 1: eat five thousand ticks. So that's amazing. I love that. 708 00:43:27,205 --> 00:43:28,845 Speaker 1: And that's how I get rid of my ticks. I 709 00:43:28,885 --> 00:43:31,405 Speaker 1: just get a possum to eat them off of it. Okay, 710 00:43:31,445 --> 00:43:34,965 Speaker 1: but here's a question about possum eyes. I feel like 711 00:43:35,525 --> 00:43:38,405 Speaker 1: some possums have very human like eyes, and it makes 712 00:43:38,405 --> 00:43:42,645 Speaker 1: me think that possums are actually just like reincarnated humans. 713 00:43:43,005 --> 00:43:45,765 Speaker 1: I thought they were like beady. I think they're beady. 714 00:43:45,925 --> 00:43:48,405 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm thinking of like I need the animated movie 715 00:43:48,485 --> 00:43:53,045 Speaker 1: over the Hedge, so sorry, animated movies, they typically have 716 00:43:53,085 --> 00:43:57,485 Speaker 1: different eyes than what it is for real scientifically animated 717 00:43:57,525 --> 00:44:00,685 Speaker 1: movies have different eyes. Or Nika just has really weird 718 00:44:00,725 --> 00:44:04,925 Speaker 1: friends with beady eyes. I don't know. I think that 719 00:44:04,965 --> 00:44:07,365 Speaker 1: possums do weird though I want to pull it up. 720 00:44:07,365 --> 00:44:12,205 Speaker 1: There's beady. You're so beady. Look at one right, now oh, 721 00:44:12,245 --> 00:44:14,925 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about the mouth. The mouth's kind of strange. 722 00:44:15,805 --> 00:44:19,125 Speaker 1: The mouth is because it's always like, well, yeah, if 723 00:44:19,125 --> 00:44:21,645 Speaker 1: you're attracted to venom, then you would be attracted to 724 00:44:21,685 --> 00:44:28,045 Speaker 1: a possum that would make okay, oh hey, got me sorry. Anyway, 725 00:44:28,165 --> 00:44:32,285 Speaker 1: Rabies gets transmitted through your spit. Okay, that's how it'd 726 00:44:32,325 --> 00:44:34,765 Speaker 1: be doing it. That's where the vast and so it's 727 00:44:34,845 --> 00:44:37,165 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, so if something bites you, you know, 728 00:44:37,205 --> 00:44:39,325 Speaker 1: because that's what the virus does. It can like manipulate 729 00:44:39,365 --> 00:44:41,285 Speaker 1: the brain to make you want to bite people. That's 730 00:44:41,325 --> 00:44:44,645 Speaker 1: what it does, not exactly, but um anyway, yeah, so 731 00:44:44,685 --> 00:44:48,165 Speaker 1: it's transmitted through saliva. And what happens is you get 732 00:44:48,205 --> 00:44:51,725 Speaker 1: bit you know, it'll be go into the muscle. But 733 00:44:51,765 --> 00:44:54,805 Speaker 1: the rabies is a very like the virus itself like 734 00:44:55,365 --> 00:44:58,405 Speaker 1: multiplies pretty slowly in the muscles. But what it's trying 735 00:44:58,405 --> 00:45:00,165 Speaker 1: to do, the virus is trying to get to your 736 00:45:00,205 --> 00:45:03,965 Speaker 1: nervous system so that it can like get into there 737 00:45:03,965 --> 00:45:06,485 Speaker 1: and go into your central nervous system, skidaddle up to 738 00:45:06,525 --> 00:45:11,085 Speaker 1: your brain. That's what the that's where brabies thrives in 739 00:45:11,165 --> 00:45:16,805 Speaker 1: your brain. Okay, oh that's terrifying. Yes, and It's interesting too, 740 00:45:16,845 --> 00:45:20,325 Speaker 1: because like the virus itself is really good at deceiving 741 00:45:20,365 --> 00:45:23,125 Speaker 1: your immune system. So like when it's in the muscles, 742 00:45:23,245 --> 00:45:26,045 Speaker 1: it divides really slowly, so your immune system doesn't even 743 00:45:26,045 --> 00:45:29,125 Speaker 1: like pick up that's something weird is happening. And then 744 00:45:29,125 --> 00:45:30,685 Speaker 1: by the time it gets to your brain, once it's 745 00:45:30,725 --> 00:45:33,085 Speaker 1: in your brain, you have this like blood layer in 746 00:45:33,125 --> 00:45:36,605 Speaker 1: your brain. That's usually you know, we'll alert the immune 747 00:45:36,605 --> 00:45:39,405 Speaker 1: system that something's fucked up in the body. But because 748 00:45:39,405 --> 00:45:41,885 Speaker 1: it's in your brain, it's like already in the house. 749 00:45:42,205 --> 00:45:46,845 Speaker 1: You know, the murderers in the house. It's crazy town. Okay, brabies, 750 00:45:48,765 --> 00:45:51,645 Speaker 1: this is a great this is a great um plot 751 00:45:51,685 --> 00:45:55,845 Speaker 1: for the Rocky versus what was it Ramon movie? The Raccoon? 752 00:45:55,885 --> 00:46:00,325 Speaker 1: What was what would we call the raccoon? Randy Randy 753 00:46:00,645 --> 00:46:05,965 Speaker 1: Rocky versus Randy and rabies and rabies and like really 754 00:46:06,005 --> 00:46:09,205 Speaker 1: depending on how you where you get bit that depends 755 00:46:09,245 --> 00:46:12,445 Speaker 1: on how quickly rabies can spread or like actually gets 756 00:46:12,485 --> 00:46:14,525 Speaker 1: to your brain. So like usually like with the raccoons, 757 00:46:14,645 --> 00:46:16,205 Speaker 1: or like when both creatures, they're going to go for 758 00:46:16,285 --> 00:46:19,085 Speaker 1: your hands or your face. So if it's in your face, 759 00:46:19,165 --> 00:46:21,445 Speaker 1: like it gets really quickly to your brain because of proximity. 760 00:46:21,525 --> 00:46:25,205 Speaker 1: But it's also like rabies symptoms. It can take like 761 00:46:25,365 --> 00:46:29,005 Speaker 1: a day to have symptoms of rabies, or it can 762 00:46:29,045 --> 00:46:31,045 Speaker 1: be like there was one case where this guy it 763 00:46:31,125 --> 00:46:35,565 Speaker 1: was six years after he got bit that the rabies happen. Yeah, 764 00:46:35,565 --> 00:46:38,085 Speaker 1: oh my gosh. Yeah, so it's quite a range. So 765 00:46:38,165 --> 00:46:41,125 Speaker 1: like rabies is playing the long game. Yeah, it really is. 766 00:46:41,845 --> 00:46:44,245 Speaker 1: On average, though it's about symptoms will start one to 767 00:46:44,485 --> 00:46:47,965 Speaker 1: three months after you get back or a few days. Well, 768 00:46:48,005 --> 00:46:51,925 Speaker 1: I know nothing about rabies. What are the symptoms. So 769 00:46:52,125 --> 00:46:54,685 Speaker 1: and here's the thing about rabies. Rabies, as we were saying, 770 00:46:54,765 --> 00:47:00,085 Speaker 1: is perfectly preventable, but once you have symptoms of rabies, 771 00:47:00,205 --> 00:47:02,885 Speaker 1: you are going to die. So like, once you express 772 00:47:02,965 --> 00:47:06,285 Speaker 1: any symptoms of it, there is any nine point nine 773 00:47:06,285 --> 00:47:08,765 Speaker 1: and nine and nine percent chance that you will die. 774 00:47:08,805 --> 00:47:13,485 Speaker 1: And there's only sixteen people ever that got rabies, had 775 00:47:13,565 --> 00:47:18,085 Speaker 1: symptoms and survived. Sixteen people. So if you have symptoms, 776 00:47:18,125 --> 00:47:20,925 Speaker 1: just keep living your life because it doesn't matter anymore. Well, 777 00:47:20,925 --> 00:47:25,045 Speaker 1: you're gonna have a very excruciating death. So yeah, basically, 778 00:47:25,085 --> 00:47:27,445 Speaker 1: at first, you have like flu like symptoms and you 779 00:47:27,485 --> 00:47:30,125 Speaker 1: start feel like this tingling, and even once you start 780 00:47:30,205 --> 00:47:34,165 Speaker 1: the tingling. You're you're fucked basically, and then what happens 781 00:47:34,245 --> 00:47:37,285 Speaker 1: is there's two different types of rabies. You can get 782 00:47:37,405 --> 00:47:43,325 Speaker 1: dumb rabies or you can get furious, So you get 783 00:47:43,405 --> 00:47:47,805 Speaker 1: smart rabies or dumb. Now you get dumb or furious rabies. 784 00:47:48,125 --> 00:47:51,085 Speaker 1: So okay, furious rabies is kind of like what we 785 00:47:51,205 --> 00:47:55,165 Speaker 1: usually associate rabies with because the rabies is in your brain, 786 00:47:55,405 --> 00:47:57,965 Speaker 1: so it's like fucking up your cognitive shit. It makes 787 00:47:57,965 --> 00:48:02,205 Speaker 1: your brain swell, you start getting you know, like hallucinating, 788 00:48:02,365 --> 00:48:06,405 Speaker 1: getting aggressive. You Also, you also develop a fear of 789 00:48:06,485 --> 00:48:10,565 Speaker 1: water called hypophobia, and part of that is related to 790 00:48:10,685 --> 00:48:13,005 Speaker 1: like because when you drink water or any fluids or 791 00:48:13,045 --> 00:48:15,765 Speaker 1: like try to eat anything with rabies, you're you have 792 00:48:15,845 --> 00:48:19,325 Speaker 1: so much pain and like spasming in your throat because 793 00:48:19,325 --> 00:48:21,165 Speaker 1: your throat's kind of like closing up. And then you're 794 00:48:21,165 --> 00:48:24,205 Speaker 1: getting like extra saliva because that's how like rabies, it 795 00:48:24,245 --> 00:48:26,805 Speaker 1: spreads through the saliva. So then you start like your 796 00:48:26,845 --> 00:48:32,925 Speaker 1: body starts creating more and more saliva. Basically, it starts 797 00:48:33,085 --> 00:48:36,445 Speaker 1: your organs start failing, and then most people end up, 798 00:48:36,445 --> 00:48:37,845 Speaker 1: you know, dying. I feel like this is like with 799 00:48:37,965 --> 00:48:40,325 Speaker 1: most deaths, you end up dying of like cardiac arrest 800 00:48:40,445 --> 00:48:43,365 Speaker 1: or like your heart feeling. Yeah. The other one is 801 00:48:44,005 --> 00:48:49,685 Speaker 1: called dumb or paralytic rabies. And with that one, basically 802 00:48:49,765 --> 00:48:54,685 Speaker 1: your muscles start paralyzing, which apparently is extremely painful, and 803 00:48:54,725 --> 00:48:56,925 Speaker 1: you don't really have these manifestations of like rage and 804 00:48:56,965 --> 00:49:00,445 Speaker 1: fury or whatever. It's just like you're really lethargic and 805 00:49:01,445 --> 00:49:05,365 Speaker 1: depressed seeming, but you're in terrible amounts of pain. And 806 00:49:05,645 --> 00:49:09,525 Speaker 1: so seventy percent of human cases are the furious rabies 807 00:49:09,565 --> 00:49:14,245 Speaker 1: and then are the dumb rabies. Are you ready for 808 00:49:14,405 --> 00:49:17,445 Speaker 1: I have a question? Are you ready for a question? Hm? 809 00:49:18,005 --> 00:49:23,325 Speaker 1: So this kills humans, but what about the animals? Do 810 00:49:23,405 --> 00:49:25,685 Speaker 1: they die from it eventually? Is this just like they're 811 00:49:25,725 --> 00:49:30,805 Speaker 1: going through this like manic moment or whatever, or can 812 00:49:30,845 --> 00:49:33,325 Speaker 1: they survive? Like? Do they survive it? Yeah? I think 813 00:49:33,365 --> 00:49:37,965 Speaker 1: it's similar to humans where an animal will just die 814 00:49:38,005 --> 00:49:39,965 Speaker 1: from it. Taylor, I feel like I feel like you're 815 00:49:39,965 --> 00:49:42,085 Speaker 1: the kind of person though, like if your dog was 816 00:49:42,165 --> 00:49:44,485 Speaker 1: bitten by a zombie and the zombie apocalypse, you would 817 00:49:44,525 --> 00:49:47,365 Speaker 1: try to keep your dog and try to like wait 818 00:49:47,405 --> 00:49:50,845 Speaker 1: until there was a vaccine for these zombie apocalypse. First 819 00:49:50,885 --> 00:49:53,965 Speaker 1: of all, Gus is too cute for that, his cuteness 820 00:49:53,965 --> 00:49:57,645 Speaker 1: overpowers any kind of zombie. Right, Okay, right, well I 821 00:49:57,685 --> 00:50:01,965 Speaker 1: think that just proved my point. But okay, but yeah, 822 00:50:02,005 --> 00:50:04,885 Speaker 1: I mean animals have the same thing. They get rabies. Yes, 823 00:50:04,925 --> 00:50:07,245 Speaker 1: they will die, and it you know, one hundred percent 824 00:50:07,285 --> 00:50:11,925 Speaker 1: chance basically, and once they show symptoms and then usually 825 00:50:11,965 --> 00:50:14,365 Speaker 1: I think death can take anywhere from like seven to 826 00:50:14,565 --> 00:50:18,405 Speaker 1: fourteen days. And it's really what was that rumor back 827 00:50:18,405 --> 00:50:22,645 Speaker 1: in the day about like eight shots in the stomach. Yeah, 828 00:50:22,765 --> 00:50:25,885 Speaker 1: So the rabies vaccine, there's like a there's a variety 829 00:50:25,925 --> 00:50:29,405 Speaker 1: of different types of vaccines, and often they're using tandem 830 00:50:29,445 --> 00:50:31,005 Speaker 1: where there's like you know, it's kind of like the 831 00:50:32,085 --> 00:50:34,245 Speaker 1: like the covid vaccines where you have to get multiple 832 00:50:34,365 --> 00:50:38,205 Speaker 1: of them to be effective. At first, the first rabies 833 00:50:38,285 --> 00:50:41,885 Speaker 1: vaccine was created by Louis Pastor and Emil Rue in 834 00:50:41,925 --> 00:50:44,685 Speaker 1: eighteen eighty six. And then I think initially it was 835 00:50:44,725 --> 00:50:47,485 Speaker 1: like you had they gave like ten doses over twelve days, 836 00:50:47,565 --> 00:50:50,365 Speaker 1: or like fourteen doses over twelve days. But now it 837 00:50:50,525 --> 00:50:53,725 Speaker 1: is like a series of shots. There's like multiple different 838 00:50:53,765 --> 00:50:56,245 Speaker 1: types that you get, or it's one type that you 839 00:50:56,325 --> 00:51:00,925 Speaker 1: get multiple times, but you can you get that before 840 00:51:01,005 --> 00:51:03,365 Speaker 1: you show symptoms, and then again, if you get symptoms, 841 00:51:04,045 --> 00:51:09,085 Speaker 1: you are going to do doom. You're doomed. Well, stay 842 00:51:09,125 --> 00:51:14,645 Speaker 1: away from rabid animals and people. Yeah, and just toxic 843 00:51:14,685 --> 00:51:18,525 Speaker 1: people too, like toxic people filled with ricin avoid them. Yep. 844 00:51:19,605 --> 00:51:23,685 Speaker 1: So what fun? Rabies not a fan? Brabies in rising 845 00:51:23,725 --> 00:51:26,645 Speaker 1: are similar. You get it, You're screwed. Yeah. Also, I 846 00:51:26,725 --> 00:51:29,565 Speaker 1: mean if you go if you're like into spelunking and stuff, 847 00:51:29,565 --> 00:51:31,805 Speaker 1: you know, and you're like in cave diving and doing 848 00:51:31,845 --> 00:51:33,965 Speaker 1: stuff like that, it is in the US. It is. 849 00:51:34,005 --> 00:51:39,165 Speaker 1: Bats is the biggest problem. And you know, bat bites 850 00:51:39,165 --> 00:51:41,165 Speaker 1: are kind of hard to see because they're so small. 851 00:51:41,525 --> 00:51:44,045 Speaker 1: So if you feel a little prick, like the umbrella prick, 852 00:51:44,405 --> 00:51:46,005 Speaker 1: but you're in a cave filled with bats, you know, 853 00:51:46,325 --> 00:51:49,965 Speaker 1: watch out. I actually really want to go m cave 854 00:51:50,045 --> 00:51:53,405 Speaker 1: diving in Colombia the next time that I'm at my hometown. 855 00:51:53,845 --> 00:51:56,685 Speaker 1: But I definitely need a check that I've been anti 856 00:51:56,845 --> 00:52:01,405 Speaker 1: rabies vaxed, because I honestly don't know and I should 857 00:52:01,485 --> 00:52:04,045 Speaker 1: know this. Yeah, I don't know where my medical records are. 858 00:52:04,645 --> 00:52:06,405 Speaker 1: I don't think I have, but where are they? Where 859 00:52:06,445 --> 00:52:11,765 Speaker 1: did they put those? I don't know records and records. 860 00:52:11,805 --> 00:52:16,765 Speaker 1: Where are they? This has been another episode of Cadaver Gals, 861 00:52:16,965 --> 00:52:20,245 Speaker 1: and I hope you guys enjoyed it and you know, 862 00:52:20,325 --> 00:52:23,645 Speaker 1: are filled with fear. I was almost like another R word, 863 00:52:23,645 --> 00:52:27,325 Speaker 1: but fear begins with the NF.
