File 0133-0134: Trasmoz Hot Binturongs
07/12/2024
In this two-part episode our hosts, Cayla, Nathan and Halli take a look at three cases of intrigue
- Nashville Hot Chicken: Seems like every restaurant these days has hot chicken on the menu, but where did that idea originate?
- Binturongs: I have not seen a binturong in person, as far as I can recall. I certainly hope I would have remembered something that looks like a cross between a cat, a small bear, and a racoon, with a prehensile tail that's roughly the weight of a kindergartener.
- Trasmoz, Spain: In the 13th century, the entire village of Trasmoz, Spain, was excommunicated for witchcraft and in 1511, Pope Julius II ordered the village to be cursed and it is said to still be cursed today. That's the story anyways
