Ep. 203: You Are What You Eat

from The Tales We Tell

What's the most exotic meat you've ever tried? Gator sausage and scorpion have nothing on this episode. This week, Hannah tells Katy the legend of the Demon Butcher of Palos Park, and the horrifying (and stomach-turning) truths in it. The girls revisit a few cannibals from Ep. 24, find a great movie recommendation, and dive headfirst into how the sausage was made back when our great grandparents were buying it from the grocery store. This one is a bit of a roller coaster, both in that the "stories" vary wildly, and in that it might make you puke. So choose your drinks carefully, avoid food at all costs, and join us for this gross tale of Local Lore.Sources: https://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/06/nytnow/no-hot-dogs-do-not-contain-human-meat.htmlhttps://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2015/10/26/report-human-dna-found-hot-dogs/74617102/https://windycityghosts.com/the-demon-butcher-of-palos-park-il/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motel_Hellhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweeney_Toddhttps://www.snopes.com/search/human%20meat/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Methenyhttps://www.history.com/news/upton-sinclair-the-jungle-us-food-safety-reformshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Junglehttps://open.spotify.com/episode/5raj0ZFoeIlXyMwBUv8Man?si=8w9RepzsR1WsjVIv6k6K5QSupport the showFollow us @thetaleswetellpodcast on Facebook and Instagram, or thetaleswetellpodcast.comSupport us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/thetaleswetellpodcast?Click here for merch!
