Always Wondered - Why Do We Get The Hiccups?

from Always Wondered

On this episode, we explore the Universe's cruelest practical joke -- Hiccups.  Why do we get them?  And more importantly, why do they arrive at the worst possible time?  Also - the story behind the weirdest baby accessory ever!  It was once a real thing, but when you learn about it, you're going to say "wait, what?"  Plus - the origin of the phrase "start from scratch".  It had to come from somewhere, and we have the details.  So join host Rick Peterson as he answers more of the questions you've Always Wondered about.
