Hello, dear poison fans! We have part two of The Bubonic Plague and its many outbreaks throughout history! I hope y'all are ready, because this is a long one because I didn't want to leave too much out. In this part, we review the decline of the medieval Black Death as well as various (and strange) cures that honestly did not help. We also discuss the rise of the Great Plague that hit London and surrounding villages in 1665-1666 and the effects of it, as well as the changing beliefs and still strange and unhelpful remedies. We can't NOT discuss more modern outbreaks or how it was finally discovered what was causing the plague and how this changed everything. Oh, and speaking of modern outbreaks, we still see them some places. So we are talking about that as well! Lets have some morbid fun and learn something new!

We love and appreciate y'all listening and supporting. Please come share ideas, questions, or just say Hi! in the IG DMs or comments on Spotify and such.
