Ep. 109: The Mother of Rabbits

from The Tales We Tell · host Hannah Partsch

Babies, birth stories, bunnies, and bad doctors! They all come together to tell the story of Mary Taft, the 18th century woman who convince a lot of people that she was giving birth to rabbits. This week, the story is baby/birth-themed in honor of KATY BEING BACK! The girls could not be more excited to be reunited, and it shows, as they talk about the wild tale of dead bunnies, an unfortunate classist crisis, a bunch of dumb doctors (and a couple smart ones), and why you should never put live or dead animals into your vagina. This one was just supposed to be punny, but turned into one of the most fun recording sessions we've had yet! Pour your drink of choice, maybe grab a heavily discounted chocolate bunny from your local drug store, and settle in for this wild (hare?) of a tale! Sources: https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/mary-toft-gave-birth-to-rabbitshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Tofthttps://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-43073391Support the showFollow us @thetaleswetellpodcast on Facebook and Instagram, or thetaleswetellpodcast.comSupport us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/thetaleswetellpodcast?Click here for merch!
