This week Erica and Billy discuss a mass poisoning that took place in post World War 2 Japan in between talking about Bob Ross and Billy adding some words to his vocabulary. Was a simple painter with a family to blame or was it something more clandestine that relates back to a previous episode? (That question wasn't leading at all.)
