Popular Science Presents: The Weirdest Thing I Learned This Week

The Weirdest Thing I Learn This Week can get plenty spooky any Wednesday of the year: Popular Science’s hit podcast has featured tales of murderous taxidermy art, fatal insomnia, and the time people tried to turn George Washington into a zombie (yes, really).

This October, let Rachel Feltman and the rest of the Weirdest Thing crew take you on a spooktacular journey through the creepiest and crawliest facts they can find. You’ll come away with six scary stories from the history of science, medicine, and tech just in time to share them at all your black masses and holiday masquerades.
