This week Carrie and Mandy explore both a modern conspiracy theory surrounding a beauty queen named Barbra Miller, also known as Barbie, and the ancient phenomenon of bog bodies found primarily in Europe.

After talking about the Barbie conspiracy Carrie dives into the ancient mystery of bog bodies, which are remarkably preserved human remains found in bogs across Europe. These bodies date back to the Iron Age, and their preservation is attributed to the unique chemical conditions of the bogs, which prevent decomposition. Carrie provides a detailed explanation of how bogs form and how they contribute to the preservation of organic matter and then she tells about some of these bodies found and what is believed to have happened to them when they died.
