Rachel Teichman, LMSW, and Victor Varnado, KSN, take a look at the manchineel tree, one of the most dangerous trees in the world. Found in tropical regions, this deceptively harmless-looking plant can cause severe burns and even blindness. Its toxic properties earned it the nickname "tree of death." Listen in as the hosts explore how something so beautiful can be so deadly!
