The Human Exception

In this two-part episode our hosts, Cayla, Nathan and Halli take a look at three topics of intrigue:

• Léo Major, the Rambo of Quebec: Stubborn, focused, and an all-around badass, Leo Major is one of very few soldiers to receive the coveted DCM metal and receive a bar in addition. A native of Montreal, Canada he earned the nickname "The Rambo of Quebec" for his wild feats during WWII and the Korean War.
• Anatomical Venuses: Incredibly detailed, accurate to life wax sculptures of women that could be disassembled to show the workings of human body
• Catatumbo Lightning:  Catatumba means "House of Thunder" in the language of the Bari, the indigenous people of the area around Lake Maracaibo. A well deserved name for a place that receives 1.6 million lightning strikes a year

Pt. 1

In this three-part episode our hosts, Cayla, Nathan and Courtney take a look at two topics of intrigue:

• The Science of Swearing: Whether you hate it or love it, swearing is a part of the human condition, but also turns out it has a much bigger impact than just being colorful language
• Eden: Paradise Lost: In 2016 a UK show asked the question "What if we could start again?" and took 23 people and dropped them off in the wilderness of Scotland to see if they could survive and thrive. The results were unexpected

In this two-part episode our hosts, Cayla, Nathan and Halli take a look at three cases of intrigue

• The History of The Written Language: It's easy to forget that the written language is still a relatively recent phenomenon in human history, we take for granted that everything in modern times is written down and anything posted to the internet is forever, for good or for bad. We write texts and posts memes without thinking about it, we jot down grocery lists, reply-all to email chains, nearly every aspect of our lives involve some form of written communication
• Bicycle Face: Once upon a time the greatest threat to a man's masculinity was if his woman rode a bicycle. So naturally, they had to make women feel bad about it

Pt.2

• Bicycle Face
