This week we flash back to one of history’s most disgusting medical mysteries: the Insatiable Tarrare, an 18th-century French man whose appetite was so extreme he became the fascination of spectators, surgeons, and even the military. From chowing on garbage and live animals to swallowing secret military documents, Tarrare’s story is part body horror, part history lesson, and part “please don’t listen to this while eating.” Was he cursed? Sick? Or just the hungriest man who ever lived?SHOW NOTESBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/scared-all-the-time--7084296/support.Get the latest episodes of our bonus show NEW FEAR UNLOCKED -- and a whole lot more! -- by supporting the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ScaredAllTheTime

Chris and Ed kick off the second annual Summer of Fear with guests Cassidy and Amanda from "Drinking the Koolaid" for a terrifying deep dive into tsunamis. From the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami and the 2011 disaster in Japan to ancient waves that may have helped topple civilizations, the crew explores what causes tsunamis, why they don’t look like movie waves, and why seeing one usually means it’s already too late to run.SHOW NOTESBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/scared-all-the-time--7084296/support.Get the latest episodes of our bonus show NEW FEAR UNLOCKED -- and a whole lot more! -- by supporting the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ScaredAllTheTime

Summer is here and it's time to get scared. In this special minisode, Chris and Ed officially announce SUMMER OF FEAR 2026 - but that's not all!  They prepare for a season of horrors by looking at the disgusting summer of 1858, when London’s River Thames became an open sewer so foul it forced the city into a full-blown sewage revolution. Then they cool off with Ambrose Bierce’s short horror story “One Summer Night,” a classic tale about being buried alive, dug up, and still having things get worse.SHOW NOTESBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/scared-all-the-time--7084296/support.Get the latest episodes of our bonus show NEW FEAR UNLOCKED -- and a whole lot more! -- by supporting the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ScaredAllTheTime
