🎙️ Episode 5: Parasites Pt 2 – Tapeworm Tapenade

Welcome back to Mutant Hollow for Part Two of our three-part parasite series—where things get slimier, squirmier, and far more grotesque. This episode is all about the monsters that feed inside us: tapeworms, roundworms, and other writhing hitchhikers that blur the line between horror and biology.

From chilling case studies of Trichinella outbreaks and parasitic infections in pythons, to the mind-bending tale of a tapeworm that gave its host cancer, we dive deep into the dark side of parasitology. We’ll chew on the infamous “tapeworm diet,” gape at the sheer scale of whale tapeworms, and serve up a fictional sponsor you’ll never forget: Tapeworm Tapenade—spread it, share it, survive it.

💀 Creepy science.

💀 Disgusting case studies.

💀 Speculative zombification.

💀 A few gag-inducing surprises.

This is Part Two of our Parasite Trilogy—so if you thought disco-ball snail eye stalks were bad, just wait until you hear what’s wriggling in your dinner plate.
