It's time for another round of Unsatisfactories! This week, we discuss emerging research about childhood schadenfreud and uncover the real reasons behind why your child is laughing at you as you burn yourself on the stove. Hint: Karma's a real beotch! We also explore a popular TikTok claim that chainsaws used to be used during childbirth. Spoiler alert- this claim is based in fact.
