The Goiania Radiological Happening of 1987 | Episode 33
Episode 33

Description
You know the story about the guy who started with a paperclip and traded up to a Porsche? This episodes like that, but replace paperclip and Porsche with cancer, and here we go.
On this episode: not a lot of heist stories turn into full-on nightmares, so this is our first sort of cross-over crime/disaster episode. We’re going to talk about non-sexual swelling and burning, we’re going to see a punch-up at a funeral, and by the end someone’s arm is going to bubble off.
There are a lot of invisible things that can harm or outright kill you. The cast of today’s story will find themselves in possession of some of the worst stuff imaginable – and it doesn’t go well. You’ll learn how the dangers of simple scavenging, combined with the effects of the disappointing Brazilian education system of the 1980s lead to this cautionary tale about skin care and life expectancy. If you think that sounds bad, wait till we talk about how barfing and butt stuff can foretell an impending apocalypse at home and abroad.
Celebrity guest mentions include the Ikea Monkey, 90s children’s TV icon, Captain Planet and the Planeteers, and Former Toronto Mayor and some-time drug enthusiast, Rob Ford.

THANK YOU. Most shows survive at the whim of production companies and corporate sponsors, built from the top down. Doomsday doesn’t exist because some network exec believes in it – it exists because actual people do. It's built from the bottom up, and it’s been my privilege to bring you these stories. Just you, me, and a microphone.
I don’t do this for you, so much as I do this because of you. If you'd like to support the show at Buy Me A Coffee, or join the club over at Patreon for AD-FREE EPISODES, LONGER EPISODES, EXTRA CONTENT, all that good stuff (I’m truly sorry about those ads, they're not in my control)
