Ep 46: An Incredible Infantorium And Hollywood Curses (Or Coincidences…?)

What’s happening with the dice? Hids’ went first again! They took us to some fairgrounds and sideshows from the early 1900s…but not for the reason you might think! Hids’ introduces us to Dr. Martin Couney and his Infantorium! Thousands of premature babies were saved by Dr. Couney and his incubator sideshow and despite the critics, he was instrumental in finally getting incubators into hospitals in America by the middle of the century.

Jess’ topic was less heartwarming. In keeping with the spooky vibe of October, she talks about some haunted movie sets! Or maybe cursed? Or maybe it’s just that things happened that could happen anywhere on any set? Have a listen and you decide, was it a curse or was it coincidence?
