42. Dumb Ways to Die
Mar 25, 2024 Episode 42
Ashley & Char

On today's episode, we're going to take a different approach and talk about true stories about dumb ways people have died in history. Whether it's dying from eating too much black licorice candy, heating your lava lamp on your stove, accidental electrocution,  or just tripping over your own beard, we have a variety of tales to tell you! These examples illustrate the absurdity and danger of certain behaviors, emphasizing the importance of making smart and safe choices in everyday life. Disclaimer: Do NOT try any of these stunts at home. Darwin's natural selection is real and in full swing.  And just to be clear, we're laughing because we're uncomfortable. Buckle in, and listen up as we present to you, dumb ways to die! Please let us know if we should do a part two!

Stay Spooky, Stay Safe, and Sweet Dreams!

Thank you Sean for making this episode extra special. We appreciate all that you do for us!
