Let us give us what he needs one two Thank you It's about the wild world of polyphagia It's not that wild It's pretty wild yeah now before we get into anything Let's acknowledge our source for all this the source is the two-headed boy and other medical marvels by Jan Bondeson which is a wonderful book for anyone who enjoys the sorts of stories will be telling today
Starting point is 00:02:49 I love this book. Oh my god. Remember when we went to the mutter museum or was I alone super hungover? We were both alone and we were both alone and hungover in the mutter museum and I threw up outside of it The smell of formaldehyde and looking at skeleton conjoined twins is a hangover. I had no idea. I didn't need Yeah, this story. Yeah Lay it out dog meat Now today's story is not necessarily one of murder in mayhem Although it certainly is disgusting and it absolutely involves more than a few dead bodies So don't go worrying about that. We're gonna get to some death. I will say though
Starting point is 00:03:27 Unfortunately, this episode is really light on castration. I Miss it almost already. I miss it. We talked about it at nauseam for damn near a month Yeah, okay Well today, we're gonna be talking about men from the past who have suffered from a condition known as polyphagia Well, essentially these are men who eat anything but usually have a taste for objects normal folk would find revolting Inedible or both now polyphagia on the light side is normally a symptom of diabetes It also comes up. Sometimes if you have it It's a weird thing that it attaches itself to certain types of like
Starting point is 00:04:10 syndromes and kind of shit like so on on one level It's debilitating and awful, but at another level it can be turned into a career Yeah, absolutely. All these people needed it was YouTube and they would have been huge Yeah, these are muck bangers These are muck bangers Isn't that what muck banging is I think thing is when they eat that weird food that has the shell on it But then it's really big and long like a weird like alien dick. You talking about shellfish. Yeah, but it's like that really long one Oh, you're talking about a muscle. No, no, a geoduck something. Yeah, but they're delicious. You've ever had it
Starting point is 00:04:45 So it's very good Muck bang is more often I believe it is small women or or bigger women of men maybe too, but they eat food Sloppily and they eat it needs And they smack it around they have a big old meal and then you see the big distended stomach again I don't want to get riled up. Well, there was a YouTube conspiracy hole And I'm totally blanking on the name of the woman but there was a woman who was forced to eat on YouTube And then she disappeared and no one knows where she is
Starting point is 00:05:12 But off-camera you could hurt you could hear a man be like eat eat more Was that Ricky Lake? Ricky Lake! I love Ricky Lake. Great in hairspray. Yes, he is. Yeah, absolutely The kondit and also crybaby. Yes The condition of polyphagia is related to but is not specific to a different condition called pica Which is a psychological which is a psychological disorder Characterized by an appetite for substances that largely give no nutritional value whatsoever like hair plastic All right, I think and I think there was one woman on an episode of my strange addiction that ate drywall Oh my goodness
Starting point is 00:05:50 I thought you were gonna mention the woman who ate toilet paper which by the way, oh fruit by the foot Fuck you. How about toilet paper by the roll? Yes, how she literally would just she would put it up to her mouth and roll it in and man I wish it was I wish I liked it because it was such a great way to eat if it was pasta then you'd become a mayor in Italy My strange addiction was pretty much just people with pica for the most part except for the people who took the coffee enemas three times a day My mother did a coffee enema and she has never been better. She did it 50 years ago and she is still alive today Oh, it's time. Oh kissle. Oh, Benjamin time for me to sit down and have a bit of my one Valdez. Yeah, you think my mom called me kissle
Starting point is 00:06:38 I did listen to a audio documentary talking about pica and it also comes up in pregnant women if they have very low incredibly low doses of iron or like they have iron deficiency and one woman was talking about how She would vacuum and then open up the vacuum bag and the dust in the bottom vacuum that would make her stomach So rumbling she gets so hungry that she just start eating it with a spoon. Oh Well, I guess there's someone there, but thank God for them Before vacuums because then you just grab them by their ankles. You just Over your carpet, I love my new Hoover bitch Well, one example of a pecan was an Irishman named Francis Battalia who lived in England in the 19th century
Starting point is 00:07:26 build as the stone eater Battalia made a living in London by chewing and swallowing large plates of stone and gravel Then shaking his body violently so the audience could hear the rocks rustling around in his stomach Oh, he's like a little bird in another country there. If this was another country, they'd call me mr. Maraca. Oh, oh, it's It is fun Well, the story that they gave was that Battalia have been shipwrecked off the Norwegian coast and he'd spent 13 years surviving on rocks Before being saved by a passing ship by then his diet had shifted permanently to mineral based meals
Starting point is 00:08:04 I don't know how many times I sit in my own home That has edible food groceries Yeah, I just sit there and you're like, okay anything eat that I'd like and you just sit there all pouty Be like, I don't want chips. I don't want beans. I don't want pasta. You want rocks. No, I'm just saying this guy He's fucking eight rocks, dude Yeah, I mean there's a part of me not joking that is extremely jealous of the fact that they see food everywhere It's like that movie mate meat meatballs from sky the sky meatball meatballs with a chance of meatballs Okay, I'm just saying but it's can you imagine that if the whole world you saw a building obviously we see brick
Starting point is 00:08:48 They see lasagna Garfield syndrome exact But Francis Battalia by all accounts walked the walk and during his frequent shows He would grind stones and pebbles between his powerful jaws making a horrible crunching sound Presumably until all of his teeth were broken and he could no longer perform man. I got a fuck good night guard Yeah, this guy. I mean my teeth can't even handle my own teeth It reminds honestly when I was a kid we had to go see I think they were called like the big horny power force But do you remember that Christian group of dudes who are obviously on steroids who would be like Jesus helps me bend me at all
Starting point is 00:09:29 Midwest thing I forget what they were called But this guy easily could have spun this into like Jesus gives me the power to crunch rocks with my mouth No, give me money. Yeah, see my priest took it took took us to this act called the caterpillar boys Oh my these guys they fit into each other almost like a Legos. It was yeah, it was amazing to see that three armed almost Like a Indian God with the way its arms to go back and forth and then they would eat a baguette and let it slide through each One of them till it came out the very last one of them That is simply the Catholic version of human centipede. Oh
Starting point is 00:10:06 Interestingly though the consumption of strange and disgusting objects became a bit of a fad in England for a short period of time a Newspaper article from London printed in March of 1778 ran this short notice Amongst the curious bets of the day may be reckoned the following the Duke of Bedford has bet 1,000 guineas with Lord Barrymore that he eats a live cat it is said his lordship grounds his chances of Unhaving already made the experiment upon a kitten that cat The cat is to be fed as Lord Barrymore may choose. I am just so happy that the same people who said the internet is gonna make a Smarter Flashback where the same people with a printing press once we get the information to the people they're going to be brilliant
Starting point is 00:10:55 Well, everyone will be enlightened. It matters what you put on it. I've been I could eat a cat We're gonna put that on the front page What about that plague that's happening I don't want to fuck with the golden and stock market literally a market where they sell stocks For some reason the people of London responded to this strange bet between noblemen not with revulsion but extreme Curiosity so much so that the newspaper ran a follow-up story based on further reportage under a headline that simply said cat eating that's it simple it's like that with bad neighbors those Seth Rogan movies yeah great stuff Marcus I'm actually gonna have to call you out I'm
Starting point is 00:11:37 gonna call Henry out as well I'm gonna call myself out we would be on the fucking front lines I would be wearing a cat hat I would be putting bets down tail first because the tails like spaghetti and of course in old England they talked like a rural rednecks it's our scenario but you know we'd be there that's the same thing with the Roman Coliseum I would have watched those people getting eaten every day splattered with blood yeah and all the people that are upset about the cat eating don't worry a baby will be eating later oh great well in that follow-up article an authority on blood sports
Starting point is 00:12:23 pointed out that the bet was not without its precedent in the annals of sporting he said that he himself had witnessed quote an imbecile Irishman eat five Fox Cubs after a crowd ponied up 50 pounds I just love that the big fat stupid friend and every friend group has always been there there's always a guy that will eat something for money every single friend group has that person eat the worms eat the bugs you think that person's going going to go on to a career of comedy they go in to being a lawyer or selling sex wings or like to be in a senator and never know Jackie was the one of her friend group
Starting point is 00:13:12 I'm not saying this but Jackie used to eat things for attention as well I was not a eat things for attention person would you think I would be I could see it but I wasn't unfortunately okay Jackie did she did eat some things for for fun well you got money and profit would you have to make that cash but of course Lord Barrymore responded to the notice accusing him of potential cat eating by saying that this at all just been a big misunderstanding he claimed that he did not say he could eat a cat but rather that he could find a man who could eat a cat you think I can't find a guy can eat a cat 3 p.m. 3 p.m. I'll get
Starting point is 00:13:52 you guys how are you gonna find this I'll find a guy you can eat a cat okay alright so don't worry about that I guess I won't it is however unknown if he managed to find a cat eater there was not a follow-up to the story but weren't people actually hungry back then you could probably eat a cat if you were starving right I mean it's not that outside of the realm of edibility it's eating a cat it's eating a living cat whole as the cat is still alive well you break it's I'm certain you break its neck or you bite its throat if I were to eat a cat truly and I was gonna really get into it right I
Starting point is 00:14:25 guess you go right for the throat first you pin its face closed with a closed mitt right you get some kind of like big either mesh made or some big cloth you wrap it around its head till it's fucking can't move and you pin its arms with your hands right it's a little legs in the back really dark you just want to because it's the first couple moments that are me the worst that's what happens when the average Polish men meets with the imbecile Irish men they come up with a lot of ideas you mean the manager and the talent absolutely I've been fighting with Jerry quite a bit he's about the size of a large cat that's
Starting point is 00:14:59 actually a good technique Henry but that didn't mean that cat eating wasn't happening quite the opposite and if you want to know how it was done I can tell you in January of 1790 a man ate a nine pound cat on a bet at a pub in Windsor and the incident was actually written up as news in a publication called Sporting Magazine oh god sporting magazine does sound like one of those like vaguely innocent sounding magazines and you open it up and it's just a woman dresses George Washington taking a shit in a glass Sporting Magazine I get it a question though true question do you shave the cat
Starting point is 00:15:37 we'll get into it okay we'll get into it the Sporting Magazine article said concerning the action of eating the cat that quote the man monster made a formidable attack on the head of this antagonist and with related bites soon deprived it of its existence for some reason I feel like cats are serial killers they know the game they're playing and if we're gonna have to kill any domesticated animal I don't want to say it cats cats are you know how many birds they kill a year every time your cat goes out and comes home you're like oh what a cute adventure it must have had it just left a family without a father
Starting point is 00:16:16 because that's what cats do they are brutal serial killers you're like in a weird world of fival where you view the cats as like you know fucking criminals of war yes there's no cats in America because the imbecile Irishman's ate all of them well this man ate the cat whole fur and all leaving only I mean it's part of the bet that's we got the whole thing eat eat the cat start with a living cat eat the cat whole fur and all leave the bones and he left the bones quote as a memorial of a most astonishing instance of the exercise of brutal appetite and the degradation of human nature because honestly you know
Starting point is 00:16:56 I've mostly heard that to be frank on the dumber side of the Irish there's not a lot of pussy eating going on yeah could be I mean oh I actually don't know if that's true seems like procreation on that side of the intellectual spectrum seems to flourish but yeah but it's gushing inside I don't think there's a lot of like mine and going on in the hills outside of Dublin I don't know maybe it's a theory the bog people got to know how to pleasure a woman oh well if you're working in the bog all day up to the waist and you come home and you're like master thespians both later though the same man who ate the cat while
Starting point is 00:17:58 hanging around in the same pub where he ate the cat he took a machete and very suddenly and without reason hacked off his own hand wait what it's just a show you I mean business I don't give a fuck I don't give a fuck but I never gave a fuck about even giving a fuck as far as polyphagias go our men in the pub was merely a rank amateur the professionals were men like Nicholas Wood aka the great eater of Kent oh yeah wood a simple servant became locally famous in his native Kent after eating a whole hog day one sitting hell yeah yeah I hope it was the hog it's a big hog it's a full hog okay is it was it dead yeah it was
Starting point is 00:19:00 dead it was like hey there's a hog eat the hog and Nicholas okay I'll eat the hog it now it was just I think it was raw because most of these guys like eating stuff raw so I think it was just a dead hog he just he ate a dead a dead hog which is different from eating pork it is only going thank you that is with the sound they make only going and this is what happens when he provides production material I wrote that down actually hold on my notebook for the show oh yeah he's been a real Mark Maron right now going going oh very soon the nobleman of the area got wind of woods talents and began inviting him to
Starting point is 00:19:36 their estates for demonstrations of his abilities oh wait this made him more popular dude it was a skill he was actually in Jam Bondison's book he was described as a local hero that's great amongst you know amongst the lower classes we like it a lot we all like people who eat big well this is why we are living in a better time because you remember now I have to remember my favorite gal go home cook some soups eat some bread at least we're eating bread and soups now it is she died at the Capitol she did not die she did not invade the Capitol she didn't bat in sassy maybe her husband and her son's went
Starting point is 00:20:16 she wasn't attributed to the raid because she fell through a manhole cover she drowns you not ever demean the woman that I can't remember the name of but as nobleman are want to do they treated Nicholas Wood as a play thing less than human and pushed him almost to the point of death for their own amusement we would never do that now hold on a second I got a little good big swallow on YouTube barely eating a light bulb at noon good listen guys we got to get into the pig swallow community this is big this is the next thing what was the name of that one guy job of the mutt or something like that what the hell was the
Starting point is 00:20:51 name of that fat fuck who used to eat nails and stuff and then it turned out he got a massive stomach problem that I think he's dead now yeah who's the first YouTube guys what a great story there was shoe nice yeah he ruined his life he's deeply troubled yes see deeply deeply troubled yeah so that's what all your dreams too far yeah but one is state wood was made to eat an entire banquet's worth of food which caused his stomach to distend to the size of a large balloon then remember when Oprah said she ate six pounds of probably equivalent wood
Starting point is 00:21:33 was near death and losing consciousness so servant smeared fat on his belly to help the distinction tell me somebody was like my name is Don Pillsbury and I just found myself the Pillsbury doughboy we're gonna be loaded if this was an Eddie Redmayne film Don Pillsbury played by him he'd have a big weird mouth and he'd like you know have kind of a limp for some reason look through the window and see the big fat man he's go oh you've got it I'm just happy you were able to shoehorn in your hatred for it for mr. Redmayne again completely unwarranted killed two girls and you did not kill
Starting point is 00:22:18 any grace well Nicholas would survived but the next day the nobleman who had hosted woods gluttony decided to humiliate wood publicly for causing a fuss and dragged him from his sick bed to be placed in the public stocks to be ridiculed by the town's folk not feeling good do not be not here but at the same time I'm glad that the stocks are doing well isn't that nice oh the stock again it's all about manipulating the stocks you're getting into investing more fun more fun for the people in the for let's just say if we're regular guys right so we're there we're three guys I fucking love stickball I love wings and I
Starting point is 00:22:59 loved oh I love the scene I love the ability to see very good so the the royalty get to see him eat a bunch but how fun would it be to see how much he pooped well that would be what we would do we would look at the stocks and be like he's gonna poop I mean he'd be shitting himself in the stocks yeah I mean I'd be hanging out for a while I definitely would like get a coffee in the morning and watch him for a bit and then go home and do my work and then like come back maybe at night with like a beer and like watch him for a bit and see how much he shits or whatever watch him yell cuz I'm certain he'll be like
Starting point is 00:23:30 well we will get into the defecation habits of these men later on it's interesting I know but despite this little hiccup would soon made a comeback and won a bet from a nobleman named Lord Wotan by eating seven dozen rabbits and a single sitting oh my god like cracking I guess eventually word of woods talents reached London and he was invited to perform at a bear pit in Bankside which was usually where people would watch among other things men fighting bears or in one historically documented instance dogs fighting an ape tied to a horse honestly dude you get a fucking guy of a pretty even
Starting point is 00:24:26 substandard metal band playing behind that right off-coast see that in a fucking second yeah a dog fighting just a process of watching the ape get tied to the horse we're called non-slipknot we're like slipknot but we wear those shoes that are very comfortable when you work on McDonald's yeah however when it came time for Nicholas Wood to make his London debut he was struck with a bout of stage fright and had besides just days earlier lost all but one of his teeth after being tricked into eating a shoulder of mutton bones and all you know honestly which is really fucking ironic same thing
Starting point is 00:25:04 happened with Adele isn't that love Adele leave her alone no matter what Adele is let her eat her whole side of mutton in peace or let her not whatever she wants to do so instead of performing at the bear pit where Nicholas Wood might not have even bit the weirdest thing seen that day would escape from his lodgings and was never heard from again wow oh no he was fine with private shows it was a big public show that he couldn't handle hold on young Timothy if you listen very closely you can hear the fart of the man who wants eight twelve dozen rabbits the theme of Edward Scissorhands playing as the shit
Starting point is 00:25:40 particles come from the sky like it never used to brown snow now stick out your tongue and take it in even though the English had their fair share of polyphagis no country even came close to matching how many famous medical glutton's came out of the country of France I honestly wonder why because France is also the they are the heads of the in the the progenitors of Gormand eating right like gourmet food and they've celebrated food as an art probably longer than many other civilizations I'm not quite certain but I think what it is it's I think it's kind of the same reason why you know
Starting point is 00:26:18 everyone says like oh America has the most serial killers it's not necessarily that we have the most serial killers it's just that we're very good at identifying serial killers we catch in America we catch serial killers which is not necessarily the truth in other places not always and I think it's just I think it's just that for some reason the French were specifically fascinated with polyphagis and so they talked about polyphagis a lot they wrote about them they made plays about these guys yeah they were performers of the day too so they were interested in them as performers where we had acting
Starting point is 00:26:58 and shit in America but America was so especially this time period the very beginning of America we were so puritanical and we were so locked down that I wonder maybe that censorship is why we didn't get a man eating a bunch of cats while they were making the the Constitution well we had to kill up we had we were fighting we had a lot of fighting to do I know so much about everything I know you do buddy that's why you have a podcast yeah can we can we first of all I think America has more celebrities serial killers because we make them celebrities and things like that and they made these food consumer
Starting point is 00:27:34 celebrities over there can we just stop with the notion that the French are romantic about the French I don't even understand why people started thinking that you're gonna ruin our whole free tour no I love the French I'm just saying it's not like it's smell like it's anyway it's like Wisconsin with a little bit more dignity wow that's a hot take well for one a contemporary of the aforementioned English stone eater was a Frenchman named Montsue de Four unlike Nicholas Wood de Four was a seasoned performer and executed entire shows that were almost solely composed of him sitting on stage and eating a four
Starting point is 00:28:25 course meal made up of disgusting and strange food okay and one show he started his meal by eating poisonous snakes boiled and simmering oils along with thistles and spiny burducks okay for the main course he had roast owl toads flies crickets spiders and caterpillars by the handful in five years you will pay a hundred and fifty dollars for that meal exactly for the encore he swallowed the still burning candles on the table washed them down with a flaming glass of brandy and ended the show by swallowing the contents of an oil lamp and opening his mouth to show it fully engulfed in flames this has been a very strange
Starting point is 00:29:11 episode of beat Bobby play but my father became known by his friends as they called them the flaming lips because he's to take those burning shots were used to line up the shots yeah and on his motorcycle he showed me they'd painted a pair of lips with flames coming on the side of it then I just think about like how I look just like him yeah this guy Henry's a brass flame and lips yeah same same lips we'll get your father drunk and we're gonna hear a lot about the non-gay sexy had with men he was gay for beer that's not to say all French polypages were stars of the stage some like
Starting point is 00:30:01 Charles Domary who was recorded by the French army to have eaten a hundred and seventy four cats over the course of a year were mostly revolting curiosities my favorite kind yeah although Domary was Polish he served in the Prussian army but deserted to the French because the French army gave you more food that's not the simple things boundaries as a person about what you need and what you expect from your employer so frickin Polish it's just like the invasion it's like if he invaded Iraq he invaded Iraq in 2003 and defected because of full awful dry if no food was available Domary would eat four or five pounds of
Starting point is 00:30:45 grass every day to satisfy his appetite Wendy yeah his claim to fame was that while serving as a sailor a fellow seaman had his leg shot off by a cannon and Domary grabbed the severed appendage off the floor and began eating it then and there before the other soldiers wrestled it away I just like it would be so fun to be in that scenario cuz everyone's in shock a fucking cannon ripped through this thing it ripped off your buddies like everybody's screaming like get down get down right he just sees the leg and he's running towards and he's like it's lunch time yeah there's a eating on it and they all have
Starting point is 00:31:22 to go they're all shocked and they have to look at him for a second go stop that yeah in the middle of the war you gotta be like that's too gross I think it for him it was you know I think a lot it seems like a lot of these guys do end up eating human flesh at some point but it's usually dead I think they're always very very curious about it and I think Domary at this point in time just saw the opportunity I can finally eat human flesh and not kill anybody it's just there so I'm gonna fucking do it well part of one of the documentaries I watched in Polyphagia is that some people the the it's not just the eating of it
Starting point is 00:32:01 it is the need to do it it's the feeling of hunger it is the fact that you become ravenous and uncontrollable you lose impulse control like there's some people that will eat trash they eat in edible objects they really go and there was one story of a little kid that had Polyphagia and they had to close the all of the the cupboards had to be padlocked because you couldn't get into it in one time that they left it open he ate like a dozen raw eggs and all his raw sausage and he'll just eat fucking whatever pick a chip off the ground eating it because he can't it's like a compulsive well I mean honestly that house
Starting point is 00:32:36 doesn't need to lock up anything just get a bunch of mr. yuck stickers remember the mr. yuck stickers a little green stickers that means that you knew it was bad you know mr. yuck stickers the green sticker the green sticker that was sold as mr. yuck stickers so the kids don't know it's yuck like it's bad for you what really I have no idea I have no I guess my family have a but did your family have a problem with you just eating yucky no mr. yuck a mr. yuck sticker just sounds like a sticker or someone would a priest would put on a child be like did this one already would you just stop about how you were
Starting point is 00:33:12 never molested I didn't want it she's no I remember those they weren't they weren't when Domery was captured by the British and put in a military prison he ate the prison cat at least 20 rats and any candles he could find the British naturally fascinated decided to run an experiment and fed him 16 pounds of raw cows udders and four bottles of dark beer which Domery ate without defecating urinating or vomiting is this holding McNeely at fucking dinner table also can we just like air quotes the word experiment what's the conclusion yeah he's shot yeah like what do you think it's gonna happen that is
Starting point is 00:33:57 the great experiment isn't it well after being released he disappeared from the pages of history and no one knows what happened to Charles Domery all these guys are afraid of appearing weak and so they immediately retire okay then there was the slightly more respected Montchor be you be you specialized in the most disgusting of meals and once devoured the diseased carcass of a lion after it had been sitting dead in its cage for days not good in addition to being a famous glutton Bijou also considered himself a great naturalist who had an elaborate system of classifying animals based solely on the appearance of their
Starting point is 00:34:36 excrement and he kept a large collection of fecal matter displayed in a private museum wait this is just the kind of guy they all the future generations of them just like hung out with Jeffrey Epstein yeah I don't understand having a shit museum is but so specific and it's I mean again I guess someone has to have a way has someone has to have one side stories LP otl at gmail.com this is the question doesn't shit go bad doesn't go away is it a kind of airtight box then it's gonna it's gonna crust up and harden and I'm sure you're gonna have it for the very least your lifetime and this is a private museum this is for his
Starting point is 00:35:20 own personal use yeah he liked to walk around hit the headphones on like we remember we found this right crumbly wasn't it but each one is like but shit starts bad and then slowly becomes rocks oh okay all right please becomes rocks so you think so do you think rocks are just shit sometimes shoot us an email I have no idea how you do it well perhaps the most interesting of French polyphagis was a man known simply as Terrar this is the this is the man this is the real star this is the goal is terrar we're gonna put it like he was the Ryan Gosling of loose skinned a frog fucking
Starting point is 00:36:09 weird fucks I don't know what you call this guy I like Ryan Reynolds better in the battle of the Ryan's whoa I like Ryan Reynolds cuz he's truly funny he's very handsome and I love him and I would want to be him pressure he's a lot of pressure it's hard to be Ryan Reynolds perfect the Terrar might have been his real name but it's most likely a nickname stemming from a saying that was popular at the time when someone observed a powerful explosion it was fashionable to say boom boom terrar and our man terrar farted so loudly so often and with such scent that terrar became the best way to describe him a lot of
Starting point is 00:36:51 people in the beginning were calling me to fishy tuba but it doesn't necessarily smell so fishy so that wasn't an appropriate name was it yeah because my bottom it makes all sorts of mischief remember I remember when man I just there was the clip of us doing the last room on the left where you played that character with the football game manager yes the equipment manager man that's fun well born in the French countryside just outside of Leone terrar's parents kicked him out of the house when he was a teenager after his appetite grew to such heights that they could no longer afford to keep him as a
Starting point is 00:37:35 family member man that's like get let's get rid of a Pomeranian yeah they are very hungry very hungry he spent years in the company of robbers and vagabonds until a quack selling snake oil employed him as a clown eating stones corks and live animals again mostly cats to attract a crowd while the charlatan hawked his wares I'm actually pretty professional performer you are doing anything for tips and yet where you catch me on twitch.tv slash terrar's own and we're gonna be doing all sorts of I'm gonna eat all sorts of things but a better not show any pictures the balls or anything that being appropriate no
Starting point is 00:38:14 spinny that's inappropriate you can't show balls but you can show people getting beheaded and you can show a lot of violence and you can eat whatever you want on twitch. I'll eat a big head. You can eat a big head yeah big hammer big head whatever you want to do yeah no the French. I'd definitely rather be head than be butt. You my friend just you are the yogi bearer of this show you the hidden gems the wisdom that you that you give the insight is unbelievable the French fart the flatulence of the French cannot be underestimated or misunderstood to the power like the power down is so frickin strong Andre the Giant I just rewatched the documentary 20 minutes of
Starting point is 00:38:56 only it's an only an hour and 20 minute documentary 20 minutes is just on how he farted loud that was like and I'm watching by how loud he farted can you just edit that out of my documentary I'm just gonna let everyone know I have been known to fart every now and again everyone toots I wrote a book about it but just you don't need to put it in the definitive documentary about my life yeah big but you don't fart loud no yeah actually the French loved farting so much that one of their most popular performers in France in the first half of the 20th century was a man named Le Petamaine he was a flatulence which is a
Starting point is 00:39:37 professional farter and he was insanely popular because he would fart symphonies he would fart conversations real skill it was a real skill yeah it's like you know farting Gary remember the mr. show sketch farting Gary of course how could I forget this is farting Gary but imagine if an entire country was in love with farting Gary okay if he was the coolest guy in the room I well he always is the only seven that's true when 1788 terer left his partner and traveled to Paris to strike out on his own swallowing entire baskets of apples one by one completely whole all for a few coins from passersby on the street
Starting point is 00:40:18 you won't believe it I got in a train the other day and it's incredible to be inside of a sandwich that can take you to London isn't that nice I have to say the apples so far not bad everyone can eat a lot of apples that's not so bad I know people that I can eat one apple I guess but in this case it's better than a cat well he's shoving entire apples into his mouth and swallowing them whole he's not just like eating an apple like he because he also had uncommonly large jaws he could pretty much like on he could unhinge his jaw like a snake and just fucking shove stuff in apparently his mouth was close to six inches wide
Starting point is 00:40:54 holy hell massive mouth and it his face would hang like it was he was built for this I think I've seen some video tapes of something similar but such displays were not without risk after one performance to rare was rushed to the hospital with an acute intestinal obstruction but as soon as a purgative was applied to rare offered to swallow the surgeon's watch and chain just to show it he still got it let me do it I'll be I'm like a little cupboard for jewelry would you not do that this is why you're in the house because the whole time you sit there and you look at it simple to rare and you're just like god
Starting point is 00:41:31 damn it rare what I wouldn't give to see it but technically I just pulled a watch out of you when he did a purgative like at the time is that like something like something makes you throw up or is that straight up like fucking rock terrio like blowing an enema back up your asshole and something makes you throw I don't know if they had like the charcoal the the whole like charcoal stomach pump thing going on at this point but it's definitely like a I don't know maybe castor oil I don't know what they I think what you gotta do you know those sex machines that just pounding pounding pounding again you can give women
Starting point is 00:42:02 terrible expectations of what a man can do they build to that yeah you put them on all fours you put one of those in his mouth and one of those in his butt and you just turn them on and see if you can't shake it out either end okay well to our then joined the French army just as the Revolutionary Wars were kicking off but the thing about to our was that his urge to eat was an actual medical malady and if he didn't consume at the level that his body demanded a crippling fatigue would set in oh that's a very common sign of polyphasia so after he washed out due to his condition he was
Starting point is 00:42:41 sent to military doctors who were again fascinated absolutely fascinating see from accounts terer's belly hung like a huge leather bag that had to be wrapped around his waist when it was empty that's called being a flappy you gotta be resourceful sometimes you got to turn your belly into clothes absolutely never nude but after terer ate one of his enormous meals the punch would distend and become disturbingly full I'm big huh I kind of I imagine it to look kind of like the remember the final monster from Dead Alive yes of course I imagine him to look a lot like that I got to see him as a big drunk frog like
Starting point is 00:43:24 version of what's that pink thing the pink thing Kirby from the video games yeah he also kind of reminds me of Bastion Booger the short-lived professional wrestler whose entire thing technically was this he would eat a lot of food and then sit on it on its face I was my favorite it was kind of the inspiration for this episode that's just how it got me down the people who eat obscene amounts of food behind the scenes you know how did he die he died at 53 of a massive massive heart attack he is gone yeah yeah however physical appearance wasn't the only thing that
Starting point is 00:44:07 made terer's body a wasteland of unfortunate conditions he sweated profusely and was constantly surrounded by a malodorous stench and after he ate he smelled even worse the sweat would flow from his pores and his eyes and cheeks would grow bloodshot he smelled so bad the animals would flee from his presence and but on the other hand animals also may have fled from his presence just from knowing that terer was actually a dangerous predator who might gobble them up at any second I don't know how much you must stink you are in the 1700s in France and you notably smell worse than everybody else
Starting point is 00:44:50 like I can't even I've been on every greyhound that this great country has provided us and I can't even imagine the smell of that I think it technically makes you encrypted it could be I'm no doctor but it don't you fucking lie to me but going off of these descriptions the most likely culprit for terer's condition was an extreme case of hyperthyroidism which accelerates metabolism and therefore increases appetite and overloads the sweat glands in addition to a whole bunch of other symptoms and today hyperthyroidism is treated with radioactive iodine thyroid surgery or common anti thyroid
Starting point is 00:45:35 medications okay but back in 1788 terer was simply a curiosity to be exploited and he was shit out of luck he should be lucky he had a job yes see after feeding him live cats snakes and lizards just to see what kind of gross shit terer would eat army army doctors came up with a plan to see what terer was capable of man I just love this idea of them looking at this simple huge man and like between you know they didn't even have he's not even huge he's like my size yes yeah but them like cuz they didn't even have double-sided mirrors then so they just are directly in front of them just how do we use this freak
Starting point is 00:46:18 for the army yeah it's what they would do to the grace hey man I mean if you if I am an imposing army and you just sent that man you set him at a table full of food and you see this man consume all of that food you have to assume everyone in that army can eat that much which means that they're strong and bigger I would immediately give up it seemed to be actually more opposite they're very vulnerable because they get tired of they don't eat and you just have to control the food lines you fucking you constantly pillage the food lines and you starve them out until they turn around grab their ankles open up their butt
Starting point is 00:46:49 cheeks just with the power of their own anus and fart all over your military and the next thing you know they're all dead hey man if they manage to beat me in battle then they are the victor you know what I'm thinking about now Adam Richmond the cheater for man versus food fucking cheat he cheated of course the chicken wing stand bullet fuck the Buffalo Cantina challenge that I did well super cool we're in big fucking dick nose I'm just so happy that you're aggressive for me towards this man I actually that's a really great I'm gonna fucking go I'm gonna beat the hell out of him with my feet I just want to have
Starting point is 00:47:20 a person who has a little bit more ability to consume mass food because I was watching the new man versus food no problem with that guy he's a nice guy yeah he's exactly cheated us yet he hasn't cheated us yet but they just can't win the food you gotta beat the food they don't beat the strong enough that's not that's true okay well someone in the French army got the bright idea that if Terare can pretty much eat anything then why not use that ability to the army's advantage always R&D the scheme was to make Terare eat a wooden box with military documents contained inside then have him travel through enemy territory
Starting point is 00:47:58 with the box still rattling around inside and vomit it back up once he got to the intended recipient okay so tell me so I'm gonna take this food yes spinning and I'm gonna take the food and I'm gonna put it in my belly you're gonna actually gonna put the box that has the food in it in your belly but you know this is all food so you say me don't make shit no actually you make a lot of shit this kind of one of the only problems of having you in the military no I mean with the plan oh no you want to yeah you want to vomit that up okay front shit yeah front shit well this concept the idea of turning Terare into
Starting point is 00:48:41 a spy was taken so seriously that Terare was asked to perform the feat in front of several top-ranking officers which means that it is unlikely yet possible that he did this in front of Napoleon himself incredible you told us to think outside of the box but guess what this is what we're actually thinking inside the box in a way that is outside of the box and they bring him in and just like hi mr. big hat and I'm just like sitting with his head in his hands just like show me this but after Terare was able to easily swallow and regurgitate the box he was rewarded with a wheelbarrow full of raw bowls liver and lungs which he devoured on the
Starting point is 00:49:34 spot much to the disgust of the generals okay straight up you know how hard it is as a freelancer to get an invoice filled yeah they paid him in raw bowl of rock how long which is long they paid him in lungs a wheelbarrow of lungs and he was just fucking and he was so happy that's what I'm thinking like so in this case like it is sort of like no harm no foul he was happy yeah this is what he wanted to do it's like it's like a dog sniffing bomb or like you've ever taken a little person and had them check out for landmines they've been doing that for centuries I do like the idea of a dog sniffing bomb like a bomb that only
Starting point is 00:50:14 kills dogs I don't like that idea that's bad they don't they're betting they're not dogs now surprisingly Terare was made a spy after this demonstration somebody thought that somebody thought this is a fucking great idea but since Terare was not what you would call a learned individual he was never entrusted to deliver documents of any real import and seemed to have been installed simply to shut up whoever had the idea in the first place it's always been there bureaucratic bullshit it's just fucking give Randy what he wants or Randy's not gonna shut the f up at this year's Christmas party and as it turned
Starting point is 00:50:59 out the generals were right not to trust him Terare was sent through German territory disguised as a peasant but spoke not a word of German and was very quickly arrested by a patrol of German soldiers you know they got a big bunch of guys with the big pointy sticks right over there they're coming for you guys you better watch it you're about to be killed spitty within 24 hours Terare confessed to everything and that's the thing too is that Terare he was told that he was carrying like top-secret documents that could change the course of the war if they fell into German hands and that's what he told the Germans
Starting point is 00:51:40 like after 24 hours like boy you can't believe you're not gonna believe what I got yeah right here I didn't know that Terare was the Brendan dassey of the French Revolution and so he was chained to a military outhouse until he finally produced the box unfortunately that is much I thought they were just gonna gut him well yeah he could have but they're like at some point they're like it's like that's fucking cut him open at some point be like no no no he's a performer let me do his job he throws up for a living incredible tie him to the shithouse until he throws up that was the Germans
Starting point is 00:52:20 but the intelligence was low-level and of little use so Terare was so Terare was simply beaten and sit back to the French in disgrace they just let him go and they've just opened up the message be sure to drink your oval oh my this is an advertisement that poor German soldier who had to pill for a through all the vomit and all the shit it's like double dare but if oh who had a massive dookie fetish I forget but it's like if double dare wasn't full of green slime but nothing but human shit well Lou Reed used to like women to take dumps on glass tables sat under the glass table and looked up at it yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:53:06 that's like being in a hockey game if Lou Reed hosted double dare that's really what it's about instead of Mark Summers which by the way specifically about the shit or if it was about the degradation I think I'm not sure Lou Reed is a complicated guy he's complicated guys be sure to listen to no dogs in space for many more stories about complicated musicians speaking of complicated mark Summers is actually very OCD he did not like being dirty but yet he did host double dare so think about that it's all about the job that shows up yes it is now following his brief and ignoble career as a spy Terare returned to the
Starting point is 00:53:40 military doctors to try and find a cure for his gluttony everything from tobacco pills to sour wine to opium to huge quantities of soft boiled eggs were tried but nothing worked well why wouldn't like actual food like soft boiled eggs okay we're getting there it just seems like a normal food kind I don't know why they tried it they must have had some other medicinal idea of what they thought it could do but they just try to fill them up yeah just kept being like thank you yeah every time they would you bring them new medication be like oh this is a good lunch but I'm actually looking for a little bit more
Starting point is 00:54:12 than this so does his body have the ability to sort of like abstract certain minerals from things that most people don't because how is he getting any nutrition I don't know you you can live in a state of malturt nutrition for a bit okay yeah he's it he's not getting any sort of nutrition really from any of this stuff these eaters don't have something in their body where it's like we just happen to be able to get the minerals out that normal people can't know it's not that but some of the rocket some of these people do have like there was a guy another French guy that actually just died in like the mid-2000s
Starting point is 00:54:46 I can't quite remember his name but his stomach like he was actually able to eat entire like shopping carts he actually ate an entire Cessna airplane piece by piece and they found that his and they found that his stomach was actually his stomach acid was so insanely strong and his stomach was coated in this he was essentially like a fucking X-man yeah yeah yeah you know where these anything that he put into his body would be completely dissolved but if he tried eating any soft foods like cheese or anything like that it would make him insanely sick that's so he had to eat planes that's mean while to rare was
Starting point is 00:55:28 sneaking out every night to the dark back alleys of Paris to devour whatever dead animals he could find when he couldn't make it off the grounds of the hospital he'd sneak to the beds of patients who were in the midst of bloodletting and drink their fluids good fucking Lord dude so hungry he would go and drink human blood it's a little nefarious at this point I don't know though but he's still just like I'm just hungry and anything smells good to me because everything did like that's the difference if you have polyphasia it's not like a willful you're not choosing to eat the things that you eat a lot of
Starting point is 00:56:03 times because you are wanting to you look at stuff that is not edible and you have the same reaction like I have to the meat accounts I follow on Instagram of course so the cat the cat cuisine shows him yeah well they don't know for sure but some people think that polyphasia specifically among the people who seek out like the most disgusting things it is a brain disorder sometimes caused by like a head injury where it's just that the the hunger set the thing in the brain that tells you what to eat what not to eat and tells you when to be hungry and when not to be hungry it just breaks it's all jacked up yeah and
Starting point is 00:56:38 everything just gets all fucked up yeah he can't he can't fix it with a wrench or anything maybe get behind the horse again get kicked again and then you'll be normal the Randy Quaid medicine yeah well more than once Terare was even kicked out of the morgue for taking liberties with the corpses and some doctors wanted him committed but there was one doctor named professor Percy who had grown attached and swore he could cure terror if only they gave him a chance he needed help I guess that all came to an end however when a 14 month old infant suddenly disappeared from its hospital bed oh and although there was
Starting point is 00:57:19 no proof everyone assumed that Terare ate the baby so he was kicked out onto the streets once again I mean number one where was Terare when the baby went missing I'd like to see a little bit of wanted a little bit of an alibi from Terare but the problem with alibis with Terare is a lot of times he considers a chair a ferris wheel just because he kicks his feet up in it you know I mean like Terare is he's got a whole shifted sensibilities and yeah to us you know he saw that baby and he thought like he was making Goo Goo Gaga's like maybe he was like asking him needed or being like I'm edible I'm edible and it also was
Starting point is 00:57:53 noticeable that he was wearing the baby's bonnet well I'm just impressed the baby can talk also you know what I already know we're gonna get a response you're like I can't believe you didn't make a fat bastard joke from getting my belly but we're not gonna do that the fans can do that you do you say get in my belly and then you make the joke and then you added to the show for yourself thank you and what a great joke you had in your car and you're living room or in your kitchen staring at your cat perhaps again remember that is get in my belly belly yeah Austin powers to the Terare disappeared from history for
Starting point is 00:58:31 a period of four years but came back into the life of Professor Percy through a surgeon named Montessier who had come across Terare and one of his wards Terare had requested the presence of Professor Percy specifically because Terare claimed that he'd swallowed a golden fork two years previous after he stole it and he believed that the utensil had lodged itself in his intestinal canal I can't seem to get it out of my wallet yeah yeah probably swallowing a for swallowing a fork might be I yeah maybe that might be the worst thing to swallow I did especially if you don't do it the long way I don't
Starting point is 00:59:10 even know I don't think there's any way to do it to swallow a fork safely yeah and keep it in I mean very quickly take somebody special take somebody with a certain set of skills and it takes somebody with the want and the drive to shoot for the fucking ring I'm actually sure we could find it on YouTube right now if we just searched it but we won't do that no yeah well once Professor Percy examined Terare he found that his former pet project was suffering from intestinal tuberculosis a month later Terare died amidst a continuous stream of pus covered diarrhea he died happy he said you don't worry Terare this is
Starting point is 00:59:55 just you're making silly string his boobie had bus on it how does that even work yeah man that's disgusting and what are you gonna do at least the diarrhea wasn't lonely the interesting thing is that no fork was found oh we shat the freaking fork at some point and didn't even notice it I mean you might have still been in there oh what a way to freaking die a bunch of pus and shit for probably took a week before he dehydrated and died but you know he died you know it's going bye bye doctor I don't know I hope they have lamb dick in heaven it's like I mean this is the closest thing to getting a
Starting point is 01:00:33 sitcom cancelled in the 1700s when this dude dies they're like no I guess we have to get a new show now we got a recast yeah it's gonna be difficult but it was said that Terare's body putrified uncommonly quickly and even the surgeons at the hospital who dealt with rotting corpses every day refused to dissect it oh that's actually they should have dissected it hey Marcus you you're okay we'll get into it but you would have been what do you think Marcus out of all three of us yeah I'm interested I don't want to do it I'll see it yeah I could do I can deal with smells I can deal with with corp smell I've dealt with it
Starting point is 01:01:12 plenty in my life because I would know shut up kiss a white with corp smell many times I don't want to know we're talking about it right now in rural Texas you know there's a ranch ranch life you know there's dead animals fucking everywhere you got to move them you can't just leave them there to fucking rot and sometimes if that's the other thing too that's a lesson that you got to learn the lesson you got to learn is that you can't just leave an animal to rot because it's a mouse mouse dies in your fucking wall you can just kind of wait that out because that smells for a few days and it turns the rocks it turns
Starting point is 01:01:43 like a big but when you have like a big fucking animal like a deer or a hog or a ranch or a coyote something whatever yeah that's gonna start that smell will go through walls it will pervade your every existence your entire being and then you learn pretty quickly that you got to dispose of these things how long do you think it would take let's say a nice beautiful 16-point buck how long do you think it would take for it to decay and how much would it smell for how long oh god I have no idea I grew up in Stevens Point Wisconsin and I never once ran into a dead animal I grew up in Queens New York and guess what sometimes
Starting point is 01:02:24 the bodies run streets but they were just not there they were just trying to live their dreams I want an answer I mean it's gonna start smelling after a day or two and it's gonna smell last oh it's gonna last a while because it's gonna it's belly's gonna puff up it depends on if the belly gets you know all the gases if it gets lanced if it gets lanced and all the smells gonna come out even worse but you know eventually it's gonna putrify that's gonna take a couple of weeks it's gonna take a long from now on from now on Marcus you know what you are the stink professor professor smells your professor smells
Starting point is 01:03:04 wonder if you ever did you ever cut open one of those animals and sleep inside of it I never cut open the horse yeah he's not a man and I think it's in you it now yeah good yeah well one person had the courage to dissect Terare's body oh that was monseur tessier when he looked inside Terare the rotting entrails were bathing in pus and the stomach filled the majority of the abdominal cavity fascinating his gullet was uncommonly wide and when his huge jaws were opened the surgeons could see a broad canal leading all the way down to the stomach or so they said the sarcophagus well that went down to his stomach
Starting point is 01:03:54 now Terare was not the only one of these men to exist in France during this time period and he wasn't even the grossest one that distinction belongs to Antoine Langoulay who was committed to an asylum for the criminally insane in 1825 Langoulay had an appetite specifically for the most disgusting of objects spending nights filling his pockets with awful scoured from the gutters of Paris searching for that perfect piece of putrid fly-covered beef way to say what's it called awful the name of the cut awful intestines livers you know awful it's weird that they have a natural inclination towards
Starting point is 01:04:37 awful because awful is also the most nutritionist meat in an animal like the yes the livers in the kidneys and the lungs they provide the most nutrients which is why like when you hunt when you're out there I've watched a lot of the show alone when you're out there and you want to eat the guts first because they can make you last for much longer because they get your iron a lot of because it's what they absorb and then you eat but it also be full of all the problems all the toxins and things like that you got to cook it yeah but all but wouldn't that just like be like kidneys and liver but what I don't think
Starting point is 01:05:13 intestines has that isn't intestines full of horrible juices and poopy you gotta clear out the poopy and you got to make it you got to boil them because as one thing you got it's really you got to boil them until they're tough cords but normally because intestines is normally eaten in the form of tripe like if you go sure that's intense than intestinal matter that you spike up but honestly it's filled with nutrition but I'm not a big thing on tripe because I don't like the texture of tripe did you call it minuto like the boy band just like that's that's what minuto is minuto is tripe
Starting point is 01:05:45 soup so they were gonna be called tripe perhaps but then they said they were like no let's go with triper minuto and they're like minuto sounds better they literally were they should have been called shit tube stew Langolay even made friends with the men in charge of rendering the corpses of horses who'd fallen dead in the streets and Langolay was sometimes allowed to feed on the raw meat of the sickest and oldest horses making sure to seek out the most inflamed tissues most altered by disease is there any like okay so let's just say we're all run a farm and I'm the one who does all the sleeping
Starting point is 01:06:24 what would the benefit of this person be is there any benefit to like well get no get the get the dude who can eat all this crap I'd like is there any he is literally still that this man is providing he is literally the jester for the men whose only jobs are to clean dead horse corpses of the streets of London like that's their only job is to just remove their corpses in Paris where the fuck they fucking did that's all they do and they would see him they were like as soon as a special one you call yourself a bit of groin me for you boy and they would all like laugh as this fucking serial killer man would eat all
Starting point is 01:07:05 of this infested meat so it's like a Jeff Dunham Larry the cable guy type he has a very it's a very working-class audience but horses apparently weren't enough for Antoine Langolais eventually he began robbing graves hopping over the cemetery gates under the cover of night with a shovel a mallet and a sledge hammer using these tools he'd dig up and break open the coffins of the recently buried to feed on the intestines before leaving the graves unearthed half eaten and open for all the world to see this is how people began to think vampires were real hmm so I guess I guess an intestine right after somebody
Starting point is 01:07:45 dies you do defecate right so perhaps it's a little cleaner I guess perhaps I'm just trying I just don't I don't want to see him taking it like it's gogurt but instead of yogurt it's full of shit and instead of plastic it's the human intestine and just sliding it into his mouth I think of that why why not but you should think of that that's what he did that's what he liked he liked it to him that was a positive everything that you said was a thing that he was hoping you get different strokes different strokes yeah you're judging him I'm dead in the grave you if you all of a sudden feel if you want to eat my intestines you go
Starting point is 01:08:22 at it go you can eat the whole damn thing I'll take your word for that please now first the locals thought that grave robbers were at work merely stealing valuables from corpses but after a doctor examined one of the bodies he deduced that there was an actual ghoul on the loose in the true sense of the word ghoul because that's what a ghoul is a ghoul is an actual it's a creature that breaks into graves and eats the dead cool I thought I thought it was someone who pops out of a toilet finally after months of discovering partially eaten corpses a caretaker saw Langolay pull the body of a young girl from her grave
Starting point is 01:09:02 and the caretaker gave chase but Langolay even while carrying the body was able to escape oh my god now he might have gotten away with it that time had a piece of women's clothing not been left behind just outside of Langolay's door which had fallen off of the corpse as he was taking the body over the threshold this is like when you finally get that detective game and you're like I'm just gonna play it on easy when the police burst in they found Antoine Langolay calmly dining on the corpse and he was swiftly arrested now Langolay was almost certainly a serial killer in training quite possibly something even worse than
Starting point is 01:09:49 Albert Fish especially when you consider his later admissions he was by all appearances a sensible and rational man but he readily admitted that he'd always wanted specifically to eat the bodies of young children but had not yet been able to summon the courage to kill them honestly currently right now I just don't have the bandwidth you don't all of these young children I just have so many things going on have so many production lines going on that I just feel like I just need to take a step back and he takes some me time and honestly the time I normally spend eating the bodies of young children I've
Starting point is 01:10:22 been doing a lot of self-care that's absolutely wonderful you do have a lot of pots in the old kettle there wait what pots in the fire either way what I'm saying is you're frickin fire yeah either way am I free to go am I free to go can I who are you can get out you want to stay away from my granddaughter based on this statement along with the evidence presented Langolay was locked away in the asylum forever oh so I'm going bye bye Matarare, Langolay, and Damary all shared more than just French nationality firstly all three could eat enormous amounts of food yet they never purged nor did they ever gain weight nor did they have abnormally large fecal what
Starting point is 01:11:05 would you call it shits yeah shits I guess you say yeah I was gonna I was trying to put it in the doctor yeah professor smells was trying to say yeah fecal emissions yeah dookies yeah I think so just yeah just just unedible sausage yeah yeah well their bodies just burned all of it up their metabolism was running at an insane rate they preferred raw rotten meat to cooked meals and both terer and Damary sweated profusely particularly after a feast and both were surrounded by a constant nauseating odor and all of this again points to hyperthyroidism that's how our buddy Eric Bergstrom found out he had
Starting point is 01:11:44 cancer is that he started to sweat so much while he was sleeping that it would sop his mattress well you were sleeping you found out you have cancer the sequel the sequel our last polyphages today however had none of that and actually seemed to be quite the gentleman he was yet another Frenchman and although his birth name was Louis Claude de lair he went by the stage name of Mack Norton yep I made my taxes and I eat chickens oh yeah absolutely love what love the letter you wrote to Nancy Pelosi Mac well one of Norton's acts was his ability to swallow large amounts of water until his belly was fully distended then he
