This week your girls welcome Kayden from the Happy Hour Podcast to dive into the boil infested history of diseases! Kayden kicks us off with the spooky history of the OG plague then Kyna casually transitions into syphilis before devastating us with some horrible history. Finally, Nat blesses us with some pretty awful excuses to miss school or work throughout history.
