EP203 | Dissolving Bodies & Whey Too Much Protein

Welcome back to Topicopedia, the podcast that somehow gets weirder every week while Ste’s life remains "predictable". In Episode 203, Steve kicks things off with a passionate rant about the bizarre and potentially illegal world of TikTok Lives—from "scoop" scams to the sale of dangerous self-defense items. We then shift gears for Exhibit A, where we dive into the chilling history of John Haigh, better known as the Acid Bath Murderer. It’s a deep dive into one of Britain’s most notorious true crime cases, handled with our usual mix of "chaos and questionable life choices". Finally, we lighten the mood with Follow Fast or Scroll Past: Protein Edition, where we judge the rise of the protein-obsessed personality. We wrap up with our Joke of the Week, which might just be a "long story".
