BREAKING NEWS: Sex Dreams, Lupus Genes, and Rabbit Queens


Listen Later

"BREAKING NEWS - You heard it here first! Your laptop is killing your sperm! Strap in (or strap-on in taylors case?) for a wild ride on Feel Good Friday as the boys dive headfirst into a world where science fiction meets reality, sweaty naked dreams blur into revelations, and history takes a hop into the absurd. First up, we've got a tale that's rhino-sized in both heart and hope. Scientists are playing god in the savannah, using IVF to give endangered rhinos a shot at love and survival. Then, Taylor takes us on a personal journey through dreamland, where the lines of love and identity blur in unexpected ways. Spoiler alert, Taylor is one horny dog in his dreams and he’s down to take what he can get! On the scientific front, Jer breaks down a major breakthrough in lupus research. A bit science-heavy heavy so we had our Gen Z consultant translate for all the TikTok-loving-Zoomers out there. It's all about rogue receptors, gene glitches, Yeet this and slay that. In a combo of WHAT THE HELLTH & History Lessons For The Boys, a dive into the bizarre tale of Mary Toft, the woman who turned 18th-century England upside down with claims of birthing rabbits.
Takeaways
- There have been significant advancements in IVF technology, including the successful creation of a southern white rhino embryo through IVF.
- Dreams can sometimes be confusing and may not necessarily reflect one's true sexual orientation.
- Researchers have made progress in understanding the mechanisms behind lupus and have identified a critical gene mutation that triggers the disease.
- The story of Mary Toft, who claimed to give birth to rabbits, highlights the fascination with sensationalized news in the past. Mary's hoax was eventually exposed by Richard Manningham's careful observation and investigation.
- Upcoming episodes of Sickboy include discussions on M.R.K.H., the opioid crisis, and a caregiver's experience with her daughter's cancer.
