School of Humans. Okay,
0:11
hello, welcome to another episode of Cadaver
0:14
Gals. This is the show where
0:16
we explore all the different ways people have died
0:19
to cope with our own mortality.
0:23
I'm one of your host Gabby, along
0:25
with Nika O Hi and
0:28
Taylor. Hello. Wow,
0:31
I said your name normally today? Who
0:33
am I? That's
0:36
why? I know? Yeah,
0:39
no tricks yet. So today
0:42
we're going to hear a tale about a king
0:44
who maybe met his end in a different
0:46
way that people had originally thought that.
0:52
You know, he might have died one way, but maybe he
0:54
died a different way. Um, we're gonna
0:56
hear about that. That's pretty exciting. And then we're also
0:58
going to hear about a lady who stuck
1:01
the wrong thing in her husband's
1:03
But oh my gosh,
1:05
I don't get too excited. I'm so
1:07
excited. I found a confetti dildo
1:10
that I am like you,
1:12
No, I'm buying it for myself either
1:14
when I get a promotion or on my birthday. Wait,
1:16
does a confetti inside of you?
1:18
Uh? Yeah, it's like no, it's like what
1:21
it doesn't have confer Okay, No, it looks
1:23
like confetti, but it's obviously
1:26
it's inside the silicone. So it's not like anything
1:28
crazy. You sound like it was
1:30
like a confetti gun. No, yeah,
1:33
you're like no
1:36
anyway, No, we are going to talk about vaginal
1:38
health later in this episode, so I think
1:40
that's a good foreshadowing. It's
1:43
a good vaginal Do
1:45
you have some tricks up my sleeve? I guess wow?
1:47
Yeah, Um, so I guess, Trey,
1:49
your warnings for today are I guess,
1:51
vaginas. But that's towards the end. Um
1:54
vagina. But we're gonna be talking about disease,
1:56
infection, you know, maybe some guts,
1:59
alcohol poisoning, but um,
2:02
and Catholicism. Oh my, So
2:06
we'll be right back. Listen to the theme music hap
2:08
on cadaver
2:22
Gals. Here we are. Wow, we have so
2:25
many interesting factoids to get
2:27
through today, and Nikka is
2:29
going to start us off with the very vague
2:31
description of the king who died
2:33
but maybe died in different way. So why
2:35
don't you like go into some more detail about
2:38
that or something, Nica. You know that
2:40
is the plan according to our outline. So
2:44
we have a nasty
2:47
story today, and I am so
2:49
excited about it. So I was reading
2:52
my weekly paper. I feel
2:54
so fucking stupid saying my jokes
2:56
when I know they're freaking like written down, like I'm
2:58
not funny. I think I need everyone to know this podcast.
3:00
I'm not funny. Okay. I was reading my weekly paper,
3:03
the Journal of Stomatology or and
3:05
Maxillofacial Surgery, as
3:07
one does, right obviously it's
3:09
called being smart, and they
3:12
reported that a certain king we
3:15
thought died of dysentery or plague
3:17
actually died of scurvy
3:21
like a pirate, right, oh
3:24
my god, wow, yes,
3:26
and just like pirates, this king was
3:28
in fact burning and pillaging
3:31
lands. So here we go.
3:33
Good, What a thing for people
3:35
to be doing. What a thing, honestly
3:37
in the medieval times. Um, I think
3:40
he got what he deserved, although he ended up being canonized,
3:43
which like, okay, spoiler
3:45
alert, sorry, okay, whatever,
3:48
anyway, we're talking. That's right everyone. I
3:50
know, everyone knows who we're talking about. I know everyone
3:52
knows King Louis the Ninth,
3:55
We know, we know. Yeah, I
3:57
was gonna say, was it Louis the ninth or eighth?
3:59
You know? Yeah? Yeah, well not
4:02
everyone
4:05
have their science and their Journal of Stomatology
4:07
on deck like me, you know.
4:10
Anyway, So he ruled
4:12
France as we know, from
4:14
twelve twenty six to twelve seventeen,
4:17
and oh my gosh. First of all, I find
4:19
it really funny that he had
4:21
to take the throne at twelve years
4:23
old, which, no,
4:25
that's like jof free status. I
4:28
know. I'm pretty sure that I was still playing with my
4:30
littlest pet shops at twelve years old. But anyway,
4:33
so he took the throne at twelve.
4:35
Obviously he could not rule at twelve
4:37
because he would probably be like make everyone race
4:39
or whatever. So
4:42
his mom ruled as like a
4:45
regent I think it's what it's called until he
4:47
was about fifteen, I think, and he
4:49
was like a major mama's boy. And when
4:52
his mother picked the wife
4:54
that he would marry, she was like, oh, this will be
4:56
a great political marriage whenever, blahlah blah. They
4:58
ended up actually really liking each other and having
5:00
like a good relationship, which is kind
5:02
of rare back then. Yeah,
5:05
sometimes moms know their boys just
5:08
knows what they want, which is a political alliance
5:10
exactly. But um, medieval
5:13
people said that the mom was
5:15
super jealous because of he
5:17
was an ardent husband, is
5:19
what they wrote down. And I'm like, oh,
5:22
giving me okay, bad vibes,
5:25
giving me mommy issues. That's not
5:27
okay. So apparently she was really crazy and jealous
5:29
and hated the wife because of that. Anyway,
5:33
just some medieval tea on your
5:35
morning or afternoon or wherever you
5:38
are listening, it's morning for me. I
5:40
think it'd be good for a dating app. Is you
5:42
know, you should just put in your qualities as like I
5:44
would be an ardent husband. I
5:46
mean, I love the word ardent. I read
5:48
that and I said, okay, exactly.
5:52
But he was also like super super Christian,
5:54
So how ardent? Can you really look kidding? Anyway?
5:57
Um? Well, his wife is his mom and the
5:59
Lord. That's a lot of love. That's
6:02
relationship. That's as PolyAm
6:04
rose as Christianity. That's kidding, kidding,
6:07
Um, I see you Christian polyamory people,
6:10
Okay. So um he was very very Christian
6:12
and he would punish blasphemy by mutilating
6:15
people's tongues and lips. And
6:18
he also led France to a time of economic
6:20
and political prosperity, which is good.
6:22
So you know, you got some bad the
6:24
mutilating, you know, all that sort of stuff,
6:26
and he got some good Ardent husband
6:29
political prosperity. Okay, Now,
6:32
crusades were very popular back
6:34
then, as we all know, and he was
6:36
a big fan of them. He was like, yeah, let's go on
6:38
crusades. He got really really sick
6:40
one time. Um, he was like on his deathbed
6:43
and then as he like, the last
6:45
words that he said were give me the cross
6:48
or actually he's French, so but I won't.
6:50
I won't do that. Don't look claw.
6:53
Hey, Yeah that's like that
6:55
sounded like, just give me a look,
6:58
cry one
7:01
seltzer water please. I mean
7:04
that's I feel like that's what people would do now.
7:06
But yes, he was like, give me the cross. And
7:08
they gave him the cross and he put it on his chest
7:11
and he miraculously got better.
7:13
And so he promised God that if he were to get
7:15
better from this illness that almost
7:18
killed him, he would go on a crusade.
7:20
It would be his first crusade
7:23
like that he was leading. So that was a big deal. That's
7:25
such a weird thing to do. But okay, what I will
7:28
say, though I know it sounds crazy, but especially
7:30
in Catholic countries, that still happens
7:32
now. Like I'm pretty sure my
7:34
grandma she asked God to
7:36
heal her from something, and then God
7:39
did wow. But
7:42
and then she had promised him that
7:44
she would go to see I think
7:47
the Virgin Mary or some
7:49
rosary person in Mexico.
7:51
And the doctor was like, you shouldn't travel, you're
7:54
just recovering, blahlah blah. She was like, she
7:57
said, she promised God, and so she went
8:00
to Mexico and she climbed up all of these
8:02
stairs to go and see the Virgin Mary
8:04
and go down. And that was like her pilgrimage.
8:07
So it's very much a thing that people still do, which I'm
8:09
like, okay,
8:12
you know, I thought you were gonna say she went on
8:14
a crusade. I was like, damn niked, no,
8:18
no, she did not go on a crusade, thankfully.
8:20
How do people just like decide randomly
8:22
like, m if you hear me,
8:25
I will go on a crusade. Okay,
8:28
you know, if you hear me, I'm you know, I'm
8:30
gonna just go travel the world. Like I
8:32
know, if you'll heal me, I'm gonna get
8:35
Lubatan's for myself. Okay. Anyway, so
8:38
you can say, okay,
8:41
So he did it like he
8:43
was like, I want to go in to a crusade because I want to spread
8:45
the word of God, but then also kill every
8:48
Muslim I meet um, which is
8:50
not not good. That is, that
8:53
is very bad, very
8:55
rude, exactly good crusade analysis.
8:59
Yep, you're welcome. So he went on his crusade
9:01
to the Holy Land, which is Israel, and
9:04
he decided to go through Eja, and he thought it would
9:06
be really easy. He was like, we are
9:09
better. Basically, we are more
9:11
quote unquote advanced, is what he thought.
9:13
So he took an army of forty thousand men with him,
9:16
but they were literally barely halfway
9:18
across the Nile before
9:21
the Muslim armies of Egypt attacked
9:23
and captured him, which like that
9:26
little bitch, that's what gen Z calls
9:28
an el. Okay, wait,
9:30
what does that mean? Like like a
9:32
loss a loser. You can make you ws
9:35
and you can have els. That's
9:37
also what smash mouth says. So
9:40
that's older. That's know gen xer.
9:43
Oh it goes back to gen X. I would
9:45
say, okay, well, I
9:47
didn't know the L the
9:50
history of the word l. Oh, my gosh, I've
9:52
never watched L. That's a letter, you
9:54
know, I got. Okay, I'm gonna
9:57
keep moving. I'm gonna keep a moving. So he
9:59
took his army. He got captured immediately,
10:02
big els all over here. He was eventually
10:04
released for an insane ransom.
10:07
He was released for four hundred thousand
10:09
I hate like, I
10:12
don't know how to say that, but that was basically a third
10:15
of France's annual revenue.
10:17
So he really done messed
10:19
up aa ron Okay, Anyway,
10:22
I say this to emphasize that he was not very good at
10:24
crusades. That's really the only reason
10:26
why I brought up his first crusade. He
10:28
did end up actually when he was captured them, he
10:31
ended up staying after paying the ransom for four years
10:33
and making friends with all of the army
10:36
generals and governors of that
10:38
province. And so he was a very good,
10:40
charismatic political leader. He
10:42
was just terrible at army
10:45
stuff. He was just bad at it. Okay, So
10:47
is he like, shoot, God is mad at
10:49
me because I didn't do my crusade? Well, I
10:52
mean I think that he thinks,
10:54
you know, God, I did it for
10:56
God and God said no this time. I
10:59
feel like that's the way that you know, people think if
11:01
it doesn't work out for them, that's
11:03
still what God wanted, even though it sucks
11:05
for you and you're kidnapped. That's what
11:08
God is. He's test right,
11:11
right, Like Drake said, Okay,
11:14
so not good at crusades and he
11:16
didn't go on another one for over twenty
11:18
years. He stayed in his lane, king,
11:21
and he should have because
11:24
things got nasty on the second one. Sometimes
11:26
as we get older, we forget the lessons that we learned from
11:28
our youth, as we all know. And
11:31
sure enough, at fifty six, Louis
11:33
is like, I want a crusade again. You
11:36
know, it's time to ride fast and furious nine
11:38
the last ride, you know what I mean. So
11:40
he packs his stuff up, his armies, et cetera,
11:43
and he goes to Tunisia, which is in Africa,
11:45
to start the journey of taking the Holy Land back
11:47
from the Muslims again. Okay,
11:50
y'all, they didn't even pack
11:52
water, they didn't even pack roads of vegetables.
11:55
I'm just like, I pack
11:57
better than like for a
11:59
six hour Florida road trip than they do
12:01
on a crusade. And that is lame anyway,
12:04
they were not. But you're super type and
12:06
like, let's plan and g coo everything.
12:09
Um, that's more dangerous a crusade
12:11
are going to Florida. Honestly, I
12:14
will let people answer in the comments
12:16
because we do not know. Okay, Florida
12:18
has some messed up things and
12:21
spaces and places. I was there two weeks
12:23
ago, and I was dancing in a bikini in a gas station.
12:25
Okay, I would never do. I saw some
12:27
things, Nica, you did.
12:30
I saw some things. O the
12:33
Graham, Oh my gosh, me contracting
12:35
syphilist because I was barefoot on a gas
12:38
station. Anyway, I don't even know. That's how you contractsyphilis.
12:40
I don't think so, Okay, unless
12:43
your vaginas on your feet, Taylor,
12:48
I knew that we were going to talk about vaginal health.
12:50
This is how you contract syphilis. Okay.
12:53
So they didn't even get to fighting.
12:55
They didn't even They literally set up camp, and
12:57
then one
13:00
sixth of the army died just
13:03
with setting up camp, including
13:05
Saint King Louis. Uh huh.
13:08
He also passed. Now for a while,
13:10
scientists believe that he died of the plague
13:12
because it seemed like a big plague was like riling
13:14
up the camp. Okay, but it
13:17
seems like that was a mistake and also a bad translation.
13:20
Of what actually could have been pestilence, so
13:22
they translated the
13:24
medieval French as plague, but it was actually
13:26
probably pestilence, which is interesting. His
13:29
job okay, well,
13:31
fuck you, Gabby. His job was
13:34
found buried in the Notre Dame
13:36
and they found evidence of scurvy
13:38
disease. Interesting now,
13:41
yes, now this tracks with a medieval
13:44
chronicler from that time who said
13:46
that the army had suffered from gum necrosis,
13:48
which is when your gums die.
13:51
Now, what they would have to do to
13:53
kind of fix this so they could keep eating and stuff.
13:56
They would have to cut the dead tissue off
13:58
the soldiers, and all throughout
14:00
the camp you would hear soldiers screaming in the agony
14:02
as their gums would get cut up and their teeth
14:04
would get hold because they were indeed
14:08
suffering. Oh yeah, that's
14:10
what happens with scurvy as your gums suck.
14:12
Well, it was like it's one of the many scurvy
14:15
symptoms. But yes, your gums just start falling
14:17
apart basically, yes,
14:19
yea, which like yucky
14:21
gums. I don't
14:23
think about, yeah, like I don't think about
14:25
how much they must hurt if they're not working
14:27
or if they get infected. But like that
14:30
must be very painful and scary
14:32
and also not cute at
14:35
all. You must have a weird smile after that,
14:37
exactly. The medieval
14:39
chronicler also mentioned that Louie
14:41
this is so disgusting, would consistently
14:44
spit out bits of his gums and his
14:47
teeth all around the camp. I
14:49
don't like. Oh that's gross. I
14:51
don't like that either. Nows scientists
14:54
were scratching their heads as they
14:56
do, because why would
14:58
he be suffering from scurvy? Tunisia
15:00
has a ton of fruits and vegetables, but
15:03
it seems like King Louis didn't want to try
15:05
any of the enemy's foods, and so he kept
15:07
eating the rations that they brought from France, which
15:10
were literally just meat, basically
15:12
just meat and fish, essentially not
15:14
exactly a Balas diet exactly.
15:17
Also, he would fast a lot because of
15:19
his religion, and so it seems like that
15:21
also affected the way his
15:23
bones. Like. They
15:26
did some testing to see how his bones were,
15:28
how his job bones were, and they showed
15:31
evidence of someone much older than King
15:33
Louis. But they think that that's because of his really
15:35
messed up diet, because he was
15:38
not built well basically, he did not
15:40
take care of himself. But it's for God, so
15:42
it's fine to have bad bones, right,
15:45
yes, exactly. Now scientists
15:47
are it's going to check louise guts next,
15:49
because they say that maybe the scurvy
15:52
wore Louis down and an infection actually
15:54
took hold of him and killed him. The
15:56
great news is that his intestines were boiled
15:58
in wine spices and salt and preserved,
16:01
so it shouldn't be long before we find out what parasite
16:04
or infection actually killed this ancient saint,
16:06
which is exciting. Wow.
16:09
So they haven't just like hopped on this research
16:11
immediately to you know, make this
16:14
profound discovery that we all need right now.
16:16
It's in progress. It's in progress.
16:18
You know. I am checking the Journal
16:21
of Stomachs Ofciology
16:24
and maximum a lickive facial
16:27
something every day, but nothing
16:29
yet, but I'll keep you guys posted. Wow,
16:32
I love. Why was his guts boiled
16:35
without just like a classy thing, yeah
16:38
like back then? Um, yeah,
16:40
no, no, they didn't want to cook them, Taylor,
16:42
You said that boiled they did to
16:45
preserve it. So what they would
16:47
do with peple? Okay,
16:50
what they would do with fancy people's
16:52
bodies, holy people's bodies, kings and stuff
16:54
like that. Is, they would preserve almost
16:57
the entire body basically, so like, for example,
17:00
to preserve the bones, they would boil
17:02
off all the fat and then they would polish
17:04
them so all of the bones would like remain perfectly
17:06
intact. That's why the job bone was in such
17:08
good condition. With intestines, they
17:11
would basically boil them and then
17:13
add wine, spices, salt and literally
17:15
preserve them as if they were like salted
17:17
beef, essentially because they believed
17:19
that all parts of the body were
17:22
holy. Okay, m
17:25
not to like, I'm
17:27
not saying to eat, but they cooked them.
17:29
That's forbidden meat actually just
17:32
forbidden meat, cannibalism.
17:34
It's the mystery
17:37
flavor, mystery,
17:39
jerky mystery, jerky
17:42
Louie the Ninth. While
17:44
Nika, that was so interesting, thank you for keeping
17:46
us up to date on this uh
17:49
breaking news, and um
17:51
we will be right back. It's
17:56
cold dab a gals here we are um
17:58
as Nika spoiled earlier
18:01
in her story but then actually didn't say anything more
18:03
about it. But Louie the Ninth was
18:05
canonized, okay, and
18:08
that doesn't mean he was put into
18:11
a human cannonball. And
18:14
I thought it too, and I was actually going
18:16
to write that into my outline and that I said. I'm gonna give Gabby
18:18
that. That's sweet of you. I
18:22
don't know why that's so funny that they put
18:24
a dead king in a human cannon
18:27
this launch. But the guts
18:29
is boiled guts. Okay,
18:31
um, that's not what it means. I'm
18:34
sorry, this is not funny. Okay, not
18:36
to be gross though, but um,
18:38
beef like preserved in wine and spices
18:41
sounds real good. I'm not saying guts. I'm not saying
18:43
people's guts. I'm saying people
18:45
cook with red wine all the time and that's yummi
18:47
as heck. So you get mad at me.
18:49
I said that they cooked
18:52
it, and you're like, no, Like, I know, they're
18:54
not going to eat it. They're not going to eat a king.
18:57
You don't always eat the things you cook, Nika.
18:59
Sometimes you let it just rat in your
19:01
fridge, tailor
19:04
grocery shopping. Okay, okay,
19:08
so he was not putting a human
19:10
kim in ball. This
19:13
is when you get sainted, even though it
19:15
is fun to think about. That's what all the
19:17
Saints are just human shooting
19:20
them out. Sorry Catholics.
19:22
But um, I was thinking about you know, Loui
19:24
the ninth he was sainted, so I was like, well,
19:26
if he could do it, we all could
19:28
write, we can all get saanted. So I was trying to look
19:31
at the steps, like, what do we need
19:33
to do as could avergals to
19:35
be calm saints? Is it? Um?
19:39
Her mother Teresa Saint, Yeah,
19:42
that bitch is and let me tell you about it.
19:44
She didn't even have to go through all the normal
19:47
rules. Okay, like I
19:49
think we might have to go buy the normal rules
19:51
unfortunately, but you know, she just
19:53
got passed through world quick. I're
19:55
just like, yeah, I honestly
19:58
don't think that we qualify.
20:00
Hey, because if I's podcast to be
20:02
saints, that's why we're going to delete
20:05
all the epis. So it's after this one listener.
20:07
So basically, okay, first
20:09
first thing you gotta do is you have to die, so
20:12
step one to being sainted. But
20:15
you know there's some things we should do before
20:17
we die. So um, basically, after
20:19
you die, what they do is like you know, your congregation
20:22
or people who you know, like you your
20:24
followers, your Instagram followers
20:26
will you know, hopefully still five years
20:28
after you die, they'll still be following you even
20:30
though you're not putting out content. You know, hopefully
20:33
you have those that real organic reach,
20:35
you know, on your Instagram. So
20:38
then you have to get your congregation followers
20:41
to then approach your area bishop.
20:43
Okay, so I need to figure out
20:45
who that is. Get to the area bishop,
20:47
and then the bishop will be like, yeah, okay,
20:50
yeah, the kidavergals were
20:52
pretty cool, so I think we
20:54
should try this process. So
20:57
then the bishop hires get some Catholic
20:59
investigators, like It's a True Crime
21:01
Catholic podcast investigators
21:03
to look at your writings and your sermons
21:06
in your life and like interview people about
21:08
you to see if you were
21:10
truly a servant of
21:12
God. This is our trump. This
21:14
is where we might have some issues. So
21:16
that is why we will need to delete everything
21:18
we've ever done and then starting
21:21
now probably just do some sermons
21:23
in the service of God. So that's
21:25
one step. So anyway, they do this investigation
21:28
to establish how much of a servant
21:30
of God you are, and then
21:34
they at that point then they might get permission
21:36
to exhume your body because you know,
21:38
I guess they need to see the holiness of your body,
21:41
which I mean we're gonna be looking pretty
21:43
good, I think. So I didn't
21:46
people's bodies what. I love
21:48
doing that, Nico, we talk about They know it's
21:51
not all the time, but I think, you know, maybe
21:53
they have to look at your bones or some see if
21:56
they had you know, Louis had bad
21:58
bones. But I think we have good bones,
22:00
you know, because Nika has good snacks
22:02
going to Florida. So that's
22:04
good. So after that they'll be like,
22:07
yes, you're cool and holy I'm
22:09
going to give you the title of venerable,
22:12
meaning that you are heroic and virtue.
22:15
Okay, so that's the next step, is you get that title.
22:17
You know, it's incredibly ironic. I did not plan this,
22:20
but I got my nails done yesterday
22:22
and they have little share of
22:24
angels all over them. So
22:27
I feel like I'm one step closer than all of you.
22:29
Yeah, this is a good step. Okay,
22:32
after you're called venerable, here's what happens.
22:35
It's a real biggie. That happens is that
22:37
you have to prove that
22:39
you have some that you you're the reason
22:41
for a miracle. By you, I mean your
22:43
followers. And this is where I thought like you
22:45
had to do miracles in advance of dying,
22:47
but actually it's post death miracles
22:50
were people. Yeah, so people
22:53
have to pray and say that they are
22:55
praying exclusively to you, and
22:58
through that act a miracle occurred.
23:01
Now, miracles are usually in the healthcare
23:03
system. It's like, Yo, if
23:05
you have a disease or an ailment, or you're in an
23:08
accident where you're like finna die,
23:10
then someone prays exclusively to
23:12
you or exclusively to the
23:14
person, to the cadaver gals, and they
23:17
get and they heal without any like
23:19
scientific explanation. That's
23:21
how you prove it's a miracle. So
23:23
basically, you just got to find some sick people
23:26
and you got to pray to the one
23:28
person you want to make a saint, and then
23:30
the miracle has to occur. They have to get
23:33
better without any reason and you're being
23:35
like doctor, I would be like wow, wow, what happened.
23:38
So that's how usually a miracle be happening.
23:40
Okay, the miracle is
23:42
not that this show got green light and we did it. That's
23:44
not the miracle. It
23:47
is a miracle, but it has to be more
23:49
of like you know, a dire more of a dire miracle.
23:52
Okay, So and then once
23:54
that happens, then that's that's
23:56
beautification. And
23:58
it's when you're beautified, that's
24:01
what that's called. But so you got to be sexy,
24:05
Yeah, gotta get beautified, Okay, absolutely,
24:08
So after you're beautified, the thing one way we
24:10
could surpass this pass this
24:12
step would be to
24:15
die martyrs, so you don't
24:17
have to do that miracle if
24:19
you're a martyr. You know, you die if you die
24:21
for you know, the Lord
24:23
sad sadly though, the next step after
24:26
that is another miracle. So
24:28
martyrs you only need one miracle,
24:30
but non martyrs you need to do like
24:32
two miracles to occur. But
24:35
then once you have that next miracle,
24:38
then you know, people can finally
24:40
like start you're finally a saint
24:43
and they can finally start like you
24:45
know, erecting churches in your
24:47
name, are renaming churches to your name,
24:49
and you can also like you get a feast
24:51
day and shit. But the thing is, like, I
24:53
don't even think it's that special, you
24:55
know, because there's like more than ten thousand
24:58
saints and shit, and so it's like the
25:00
only people who might celebrate your feast day would
25:02
be like your original Instagram congregation.
25:04
So it's like, ah, is it really even
25:07
worth it? I did not know that there were
25:09
over ten thousand saints. I had no idea
25:12
who's the most over ten thousand miracles?
25:15
Wow. I would
25:17
just like to say, I already am a church
25:19
so imbed very
25:22
funny, Taylor church very
25:25
and I'm a lightbulb lots
25:28
of watts. Okay, I'm a sexy
25:30
last Nambaka's just sexy. Okay, great,
25:32
yep. Anyway, this is how we can
25:34
eventually be celebrated across the Catholic
25:37
diaspora. But we'll figure that out
25:39
at some point. We got we gotta just delete
25:41
everything, but we'll get there anyway.
25:44
We're gonna I'm gonna segue into
25:46
Taylor's story really smartly.
25:48
You know what Catholics like drinking
25:51
the blood of Christ. You know what the blood
25:53
of Christ is is
25:55
wine, and you know water into wine
25:58
wine, wine. Oh, Taylor,
26:02
Taylor's story has some
26:04
alcohol on it too. That
26:08
also saints know what saints
26:10
have butts okay
26:14
wow, and so Taylor, Yeah,
26:16
take us down the rabbit hole
26:18
of your story. Great, yeah,
26:20
I will um as you just
26:22
said, we're talking about butts. Yea.
26:26
My excuse for my sucking
26:29
at telling a story today is that I'm busy
26:31
at work. But when in doubt talk
26:33
about butts. Yeah. Absolutely.
26:36
Also, you literally haven't even started. You
26:38
don't suck yet. Okay, I'll tell you. Yeah, I'll tell
26:40
you if it happens. Not yet, okay. Two
26:43
thousand and four. How are we feeling so far? Bush
26:47
Presidency? Email music,
26:49
great, low rise
26:54
sticks. It's like we're trying to go back there now
26:56
anyway, it really is, and it's dressing me. I
26:58
don't like that idea. But um so there's
27:01
this couple and they were in their forties and fifties.
27:03
Their names were what yeah, their
27:06
names were Michael and Tammy.
27:09
No hate, but like Tammy is
27:11
like is like the name Karen, except
27:14
for their thing is that they just do some like crazy
27:16
shit. Tammy is a crazy crazy
27:18
woman name. Um well that's like in
27:21
um uh Parks
27:24
and Recreation. Yeah. Yeah, and his
27:26
wives name Tammy and they're all crazy. Yes,
27:29
so good. I need to rewatch that. Tammy is like a
27:31
white trash Karen maybe yeah,
27:33
old Tam Tam. Um So
27:37
anyway, Michael, so we have Tammy
27:39
so, and then we have Michael,
27:42
who was a bit of an alcoholic goops.
27:44
Yeah, and he was sickly, which
27:47
made alcoholism a little bit tricky. He
27:50
had these ulcers and it also
27:52
gave him really bad heartburn. Also, when I was writing
27:54
this, I had heartburn,
27:56
and I was like looking for Tom's so I
27:58
could relate. I was like, no alcohol
28:01
for me, heartburn. Tam
28:04
Tam and the tom toms.
28:06
Tam Tam and the tom toms and Tam
28:08
Tam also had some tomtoms. Um
28:10
that was jomb okay, seem sucking all right.
28:13
Um So anyway, so that was problematic because he had these
28:15
ultrastuff he couldn't really swallow. He was all they were. All the
28:17
doctors were also like, you probably shouldn't have alcohol.
28:20
It's not it's not great for you in your current
28:22
condition. But he was like,
28:24
you know what I need, I need
28:26
it. But he was a trickster and found a different
28:28
way to consume alcohol. Um,
28:31
and he thought he was gonna outsmart the doctors. So
28:33
what he did was he would take alcoholic
28:36
enemas, specifically of the
28:38
sherry variety, Sherry
28:41
and his but yeah, I
28:43
thought Tammy was in his but not
28:45
sherry. That's
28:48
a good joke. I didn't think about so
28:50
an alcoholic enema. The youths
28:53
like to call this butt chucking or boofing.
28:56
In my day, we would just funnel beer
28:58
or do you like keg stands? But okay,
29:01
um, your button, no through
29:04
your mouth. So anyway,
29:07
but if you recall, you've seen a butt enema,
29:10
a butt chugging, yeah, at a frat
29:12
party. At a frat party, It's
29:14
it's disgusting. I
29:16
like, don't ever want to see that again ever in my
29:18
life. Okay, well it's really dangerous. So
29:22
yeah, yeah, I mean here tell you. Also,
29:25
I'm really dumb and I literally thought
29:27
that like an
29:29
alcoholic enema would just be like a
29:31
liquid advil or something that would just like dissolve
29:34
and then the alcohol would be there. I'm like, really stupid, but
29:36
really it I like looked it up
29:38
and it's literally like funneling through
29:40
your bottom. Absolutely, that is that
29:43
is what I saw. It was a handstand, it
29:45
was a it was a leg spread open, it
29:47
was a it was a funnel. Yeah.
29:50
So too, Literally, like Nika
29:52
just said, to have an alcoholic
29:55
enema, you just have a little funnel, a little
29:57
tube, you know, to do, just pick
29:59
your poison and bottoms up literally
30:02
bottom. That's really funny, Taylor, thank you.
30:06
But yeah, so I'm not judging, but the sherry seems
30:08
to be like a very fancy booth and
30:11
it's like why, I don't know, Like you can't even taste
30:13
it, right, which thank god, because
30:15
that would be really gross. That's nasty.
30:17
But also like he was an alcoholic. I think he needed
30:20
it, you know, I know that's what I'm saying. It's like, but
30:23
share it anyway. Whatever. But
30:25
actually, so when Michael was younger, his
30:27
mom, like all of this makes sense full circle. His
30:29
mom would give him these enemas, and he
30:32
basically became addicted to these enemas, and
30:34
so he became very dependent on them. His
30:37
mom gave him alcohol, not alcohol
30:39
like other enemas, but like why, I don't really
30:41
know. It was just like you're
30:44
not feeling well, enema, you
30:47
know, like I havena tell me like enema.
30:49
I don't know. Oh
30:53
so he Yeah, he became very dependent on them.
30:55
So it all kind of makes sense. But
30:57
anyway, this was a typical day,
30:59
I guess in Michael's like, Kunney, it's
31:01
time for my sherry drops
31:03
trial. Tammy does hurt. So
31:07
Tammy was helping him with the enemas this whole
31:09
time with the child obviously,
31:11
but so yeah, some people can do it on their own.
31:14
But Tammy was old, Tam Tammy, she
31:16
was nice and she was happy to administer
31:18
his sherry enema. But unfortunately
31:21
this would be the last alcoholic
31:23
enema he ever got. That
31:25
means he died. Oh
31:28
oh. So the
31:30
next day, Tam Tam found her husband
31:33
unresponsive. She calls nine to one one
31:35
where he's pronounced dead and the coroner
31:37
had suspected that he had about two bottles
31:40
of alcohol. That's a
31:42
lot. His blood alcohol content was point
31:44
four seven, which is like six times
31:47
the two drunk to drive limit. I
31:49
couldn't find exactly how much he
31:51
was given, like how much of this enema
31:54
he was given. But here's the thing.
31:56
When you drink alcohol, there's like a
31:59
lot of stuff that happens. It goes through a
32:01
lot of things, it gets filtered, and it's the alcohol
32:03
is gradually introduced into your bloodstream
32:06
and then so like when you have too much alcohol,
32:09
your body reacts by throwing up
32:11
or passing out to basically stop you
32:13
from poisoning yourself. But
32:16
with an enema. With an alcoholic enema,
32:18
that doesn't really happen. He goes directly to your bloodstream,
32:20
Like when it's taken, it's just
32:23
chilling in there, swirling around, going
32:27
into your bloodstream. So it's
32:29
pretty easy to have
32:31
too much. You don't realize how much you've had before
32:33
it's too late. So we can only
32:35
assume that that's what happened here. So
32:39
Tammy gets arrested. Oh
32:42
no, tarrested because
32:44
they're like, hello, he's
32:46
dead, what did what did you do? And
32:49
like, and she did say like, hey, he
32:51
takes alcohol enemas, like that's
32:53
a thing that he does. I wasn't
32:55
a hundred person if she actually
32:59
there. I saw where she like said that she denied
33:01
giving him the enema, but like sometimes like she
33:04
did, so I'm like kind of confused. I think she did.
33:06
But anyway, so she goes to jail
33:08
for a negligent homicide. She's
33:11
then released on the thirty thousand dollar
33:13
bond, and then three years later they go
33:15
to trial. The trials
33:17
then dismissed for lack of evidence. So
33:20
basically, the defense was making this comparison
33:22
that like if somebody has lung cancer and you buy
33:24
them cigarettes. Is that murder? So there's
33:26
like no evidence found whether she would
33:28
like intentionally murder her husband, and
33:31
like I think something else. She also
33:33
like burned his will,
33:36
which you're not supposed to do that, but like I guess she
33:38
did that to prove like I didn't want anything
33:40
out of this, like I loved him,
33:42
he loved me, like I was just doing
33:45
what he wanted. And you
33:47
know me, I love a good quote. So
33:49
here's what old Tam Tam said.
33:52
My husband told me he loved me more than anything
33:55
in the world except for God. Olwell,
33:58
I'm not ashamed of my husband because I
34:00
loved him and I supported him a thousand
34:02
percent. Whatever he wanted to do,
34:05
that's the way he went out. And I'm sure that's
34:07
the way he wanted to go out because he
34:09
loved his enemas wow
34:13
wow, oh my. So
34:16
she was like she was like, look, he
34:19
died, he died doing what he loved. I
34:21
supported him, but I didn't
34:24
kill him. Shit happens, like
34:27
it was a dangerous thing, and we
34:29
all knew that it was a dangerous thing. But that
34:31
was a risk I guess that he was willing
34:33
to take. So I
34:36
just that last sentence like
34:39
he died doing what he loved and that was enemas.
34:42
My god. Yeah, wow, I
34:44
mean some people, I mean beyond
34:46
and I don't know, Gabby, if you're gonna talk about this later,
34:49
but beyond the fact that it gets
34:51
you drunker faster, it's also
34:53
like kind of an erotic thing I guess
34:56
for some people. So I
34:58
don't know. I guess, well, Taylor,
35:00
thank you for that. Um, I
35:03
guess it's a good less
35:05
Yeah, sherry was a specific beverage
35:08
that is interesting. But we'll be right back
35:10
with a little bit more about sticking things in your
35:12
orifices. Okay, b I
35:14
b RB. Okay.
35:20
Here we are at cadaver Gal's
35:23
um having a good ass time talking
35:25
about, you know, an enema
35:28
of alcohol and your bottom.
35:31
Um. Okay,
35:33
so you know, alcohol enemas, as Taylor is saying,
35:35
they're a real thing. People do them. There's all a
35:37
large variety of different types of cinemas too.
35:40
And Taylor is also telling
35:42
us about how you know it's dangerous as heck,
35:44
because it means, you know, if
35:46
it's going into your butt, there isn't like a way
35:49
to regurgitate the alcohol. You
35:51
know, you can't throw it up so like you will just like
35:53
be more susceptible to alcohol poisoning.
35:56
But yeah, so throwing up
35:58
is let Okay, drinking is so cool. Okay,
36:00
but the butt is not the only orifice
36:02
people have put alcohol in before. Definitely
36:05
not why Okay, they've surprised.
36:07
They've also you know, have you know, soaked
36:10
tampons in alcohol and stuck
36:13
it in their cooters. Yeah
36:15
wait, JK, that's not a real thing. Okay,
36:18
this is actually an y Yeah,
36:20
okay legend.
36:24
I thought that. I don't. Wow, I heard
36:26
about that growing up, like in high school. That's
36:28
so weird. Yeah, this is the problem
36:30
with the media. Sometimes you hear a thing and then you're
36:32
like, oh my god, it must be real. It's like the show
36:35
this show where I like to do fearmongering.
36:37
It's the same thing. That's a lot of like fearmongering.
36:39
Like maybe a few times people
36:42
have done this, but it was not like the epidemic
36:44
of suburban teens that like the media
36:46
was trying to make it seem like, or the media
36:49
wasn't trying. They would just like caught got
36:51
caught up in like the salaciousness
36:54
and the dangerousness of this idea
36:56
that teens were doing this to get drunk,
36:58
okay, because basically,
37:00
yeah, because I remember this was like in twenty twelve, I think,
37:03
like, but the earliest time this was ever like
37:05
report ordered it in like a newspaper, was
37:07
in like nineteen ninety nine. But there really
37:09
just isn't Like most of the stories, there's
37:11
never an actual specific case where
37:14
this happened. And so basically
37:16
what they would say is that,
37:18
you know, parents, they need to watch out for their kids soaking
37:20
tampons and alcohol and sticking it in their vaginas
37:23
because they want to get drunk faster. They also
37:26
want to like not smell like alcohol.
37:28
And they also thought that you know, if
37:30
you got drunk in this manner, you
37:33
wouldn't when you were breathalyzed, there
37:35
wouldn't be any alcohol trace in
37:37
your breath. But all of this thing
37:39
is like even those points that
37:41
they're trying to make in this lie are also like
37:44
none of that actually works, because like even
37:46
if you did get drunk off of like
37:48
either butt chugging or having like a tampon
37:50
and your vagina soaked an alcohol, you
37:53
would still your breath would still smell because
37:55
it's still a way alcohol is expelled
37:57
and also your breath. You would when your breath, Liz,
37:59
you would still still in your Yeah,
38:02
it's still in your bloodstream. So all
38:04
of that is silly, even the
38:06
lines within the lie, it's all stupid.
38:10
Also another problem here's this
38:13
is why journalism is can be hilarious.
38:15
I guess journalism in quotation
38:18
marks. But there's this one blogger who actually
38:20
did an experiment who was like, Okay, they're saying teams
38:22
are doing this, so let's try it out. Let's
38:24
do it. And I
38:26
didn't take it upon myself try
38:28
it out this time. Good glad you
38:31
made that. But she did a test where she took
38:33
some tampons and she'd put them in
38:35
vodka to see how much they absorbed. And it
38:38
was kind of like with a regular tampon it would be like
38:40
a third of a shot, so a third of an
38:42
ounce basically, but then you know, made with a jumbo
38:44
tampon, at most it would be like one point five
38:47
ounces, so kind of like your standard bar drink
38:49
or whatever. But the
38:51
problem is, then here's the thing. Once
38:54
you like have a tampon that has liquid in
38:56
it, it's hard to put it up in there. We
38:58
all know that, you know, you're not going to do a
39:00
pre damned tampon up in there. No, So
39:03
like when you're even trying to put it in like that
39:05
alcohol, it's gonna like spill out of it
39:07
because you're and so the thing is like, even
39:09
if you did do that, like you're not even putting
39:12
that much alcohol into your body. Okay,
39:14
So it's all silly. It
39:16
doesn't make any sense.
39:18
So you wouldn't even really get drunk. So then it's kind of
39:21
like, well, how would you do it? Would you have to like stick
39:23
lots of tampons up in there? And
39:25
teens, teens, college kids,
39:27
I don't think anyone's you know, there's
39:30
a level of discomfort that people
39:32
do, I think to have fun. But that's just like a lot of
39:34
discomfort. So it doesn't make any sense. Also,
39:37
it's gonna hurt, like ass like, it's
39:39
gonna hurt so bad because especially if
39:41
you're doing it in liquor, you're putting
39:44
now you know, you're putting a
39:46
liquor stingy thing
39:49
into your very You know, we
39:51
should protect the vagina because
39:53
it has all this like you know, bacteria. It's a very
39:55
delicate balance of fluids
39:58
and junk and so you've
40:00
got to keep it all good, and so if you put the alcohol,
40:02
it would just be really bad for you. But also it hurt
40:04
really bad. Yeah, it's weird.
40:07
When I was in high school, I remember everyone talking about
40:09
this, but no one ever, like, I don't know anyone who actually
40:11
did it, you know, yeah, because it's
40:13
fake. I mean
40:15
I think it's someone's done that. I someone has done
40:18
this. You know, people have for sure
40:20
stuck things and their vagina
40:22
that maybe shouldn't have been there, just like the
40:24
butt. You know, we've done we eat on
40:26
cadiver gals have exposed some
40:29
of these problems of you know, like
40:31
eels in the butt like that. The eel in the
40:33
butt was crazy. That was one of
40:35
the stories I've ever told.
40:37
I didn't like that one anyway. But this
40:39
is kind of also like the
40:42
same thing with like tide pods,
40:44
where like it wasn't really a thing, but
40:46
then it just got blown out of proportion of
40:48
like, yeah, I mean tide pods,
40:51
probably someone's eating them before, but it's not
40:53
like an epidemic. Yeah, tiods,
40:56
do they look scrumptious? Yeah, yeah,
40:58
but like no one's gonna eat them. That's like when you
41:00
look like at rocks, like pretty rocks.
41:02
You want to put them in your mouth, but you're not gonna do
41:05
it because that's remember the bath
41:07
salt salt? Yeah, oh
41:09
my gosh, yes, when that one guy, everyone
41:12
thought that he was like crazy quote
41:15
unquote off bath salt and then he turns out he had severe
41:17
mental illness. We also talked about that in the podcast
41:19
We are Exposed a Queens. Okay,
41:21
wow, we know we literally
41:23
thought there was gonna be a zombie apocalypse, absolutely
41:27
absolutely because of bath salts. But no,
41:29
I was scared to use bath salts for
41:31
like the longest time. You were afraid we gonna eat them?
41:34
No, oh my gosh. No, I was just afraid they're
41:36
gonna seep into my skin and turn me into a zombie.
41:38
Okay, yeah, so all
41:41
I'm trying to say, kids, Okay,
41:45
if you're a teen who's trying to get drunk, just
41:48
do it the regular way through your mouth
41:50
hole. Okay, you
41:52
don't need these other holes, you know. Well,
41:55
