Mother Knows Dad starring Nicole and Jemmy and Maria qk Hi. Everyone.
Welcome to Mother Knows Death. On today's episode, we're gonna
be talking about Chad Michael Murray, otherwise known as Jake
(00:28):
from Freaky Friday. They have a new sequel that just
came out, and he was recently interviewed and talked about
a hospitalization he had as a teenager. We're going to
talk about a singer that was on a competition TV
show who had a really excruciating terror on her volva,
and other weird injuries that happened while she was filming.
(00:48):
A woman who was just randomly dancing on a roof
and fell through the chimney, a dead infant that was
in a hearse but it's not what you would think,
and a specific ear piercing you may be able to
get to make mys go away. All that and more.
On today's episode, let's.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Talk about Jake.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
He's Tristan from Gilmore Girls, So get it right, because
that was that was first.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Oh I don't I didn't watch Gilmore Girls. I don't know,
but he was like, he like the heart throb. Is
he still good looking?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I never He's not really my type. But he he
left us.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
In the Gilmore Girls University Go on One Tree Hill.
Then he was in I think Cinderella Storried with Hillary Duff.
He was totally like my era, millennial era, like heart Throb.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Right.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
He was always in those teen magazines.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Yes, we're gonna go see that this weekend, right, Yeah,
I really want to say it.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Of course we are. Isn't that where make Good Choices
comes from?
Speaker 1 (01:44):
When? I don't know if when when you drop the
kids off at school you say make good Choices when
they get out of the car, and I think it's.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
From the movie.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Oh, I thought it was from Mean Girls.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Oh, I thought maybe maybe it's not.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I thought it was like Amy Poehler and Mean Girls
that was dropping off the kid.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I don't know anyway.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Chad Michaelberry was on The Great Company podcast and revealed
that when he was fifteen, he spent over two months
in the hospital because his intestines were quote twisted.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
So, just based upon the little information that was given
in this article, I think that what happened was since
he was still considered to be a kid, he probably
had this condition called intestinal mal rotation, which is when
you're a fetus, and you're developing, your intestines kind of
twist and then they move themselves into a proper position,
(02:33):
and sometimes they don't twist in the right way and
don't go into the proper position, which because think about it,
it's like your intestines are like a hose, Like if
you have a hose outside, it's a hose that's like
finally finally woven into the abdomen like that, and if
it's not in the right place, those loops of the
(02:55):
hose are able to twist on each other. And what
happened in his case was that they twisted on each
other and it could cut off the blood supply to
the bell. But not only that, it also cuts off
the hose itself, which is responsible from bringing your food
from your mouth to your anus. Right. So when two
(03:15):
ends of that the intestines are clipped off like that,
the bell can start dilating and getting very big, and
that's called evolvulus, and that could lead to a lot
of different things that could make it kind of just
get so big that it bursts or it perforates, and
all of the poop that's inside of there gets inside
the abdomen and it could cause a person to become septic,
(03:38):
and I mean you could die from it. It also
could cause that portion of the bow to die and
you have to get it surgically removed, which honestly he
said he was in the hospital for two and a
half months. So I'm thinking that like one of these
major complications happened from that, because he seemed like he
got really sick, to the point where he was talking
(04:01):
about like like last writes in God and like you know,
so things got really bad there for him for a while,
and I'm glad that he survived us. But this is
something that I've seen from time to time in pathology,
for sure.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
So something really cool from this story is he was
saying that the nurses were all like fawning over him,
telling him he should be a model, and he was
not necessarily interested in being a model, but was interested
in being an actor. But I guess one of the
nurses was like, no, I have like a connect that
a'm modeling agency. Let me hook you up, and she
did follow through with that, and then he started an
acting career shortly after. I mean, I think he was
(04:40):
born in eighty three, so if he was fifteen when
that happened. That was like what ninety eight, so he
was on Gilmore Girls. It had to be like two thousand,
two thousand and one that he was on that show,
So it seemed like it went pretty well for him
pretty quickly.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Do you think this nurse takes responsibility for discovering him?
He is like very handsome, Like he does have a
very guy Yeah, he's just.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Not by type.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
I'm not in the Blonde I'm either, but I could recognize,
like I could recognize he just he has like a
very like charming way about him. So that that's pretty
cool that the nurse was like, I'm gonna call one
of my connections and then like it ended up working out.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
That's that's so cool.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Yeah, totally, And it's cool that he's still it's cool
that he's in Freaky Friday and I guess he's in
Freaking Friday and stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I honestly forgot he.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
Was in that movie, but I'm looking for it because
it is.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
It's very bizarre, like the way Jamie Lee Curtis is
like acting with him because technically she's the kid, so
but like it's just weird to watch it because she's
an adult like flirting with a child, you know, like
a teenage boy. So I love that movie. I can't
wait to see part two and Lindsay lohandle oh God,
please tell me who's taking care of your face?
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Because I want.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
That so good, the best work I've ever seen it
by life. I know they they just look so good.
I'm just like, please share your secrets.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
And I don't know if you saw that picture of
Larsa Pippen that was going around last Oh. Yeah, she's
claiming she had an allergic reaction to whatever she got done.
I'm like, no, I think you're just really going overboard.
And she was so beautiful before she started trying to
turn herself into a Kardashian. So I can say that
about all of these people. It's it's really.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Sad, all right.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
So let's talk about this this singer that was on
one of these competition shows.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
So there's a show called Celebrity Sas Who Dares Win,
which I've never heard of. So when I looked it up,
it's in the UK. I guess it's our Like I
guess our version of the show is called Special Forces,
where they have celebrities go on and try to do
military training and then they survive it or they don't.
But in this case, singer Lucy Spragan, she's on the show,
(06:51):
and she revealed that during one of the stunts, her
vulba ended up getting ripped.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Oh my god, this sounds horrible. I do understand what
was happening, because it seems like she had like a
harness around her thighs and that could cause a tear
in the skin if it's if the force is great enough,
that would cause an actual laceration.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Right, maybe you should use this as the example.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Yeah, And I just keep thinking about that and just
the vulvas in such a really like delicate place because
it is also around the crease of your leg, And
just imagine how difficult it is trying to heal a
wound like that. Of course, if you're like a sexually
active adult too, that would also just be a terrible
(07:40):
location to get such an injury. So that one just
sounds like really painful. And at the time she felt
like she thought something happened, but then there was it
was something that she feels she has to get surgically
repaired because it was that bad.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
I don't know why anybody wants to go on these shows.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I don't either.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
It's like it, I mean, there is something to be
said about doing something out out of your comfort zone
and pushing yourself to do something you wouldn't normally do
just to say that you did it. But like, yeah,
that that to me is like I I do watch
those shows all the time, and I'm just like, yeah, no, thanks.
I could see like the Survivor ones and stuff, but
(08:22):
this particular one, I'm just like, absolutely not.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
I think Doctor Drew was special for she was really sick.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
It wasn't.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yeah, something happened with him, and something happened with Kate,
like John and Kate plus eight. Kate, Oh, you know,
she's gonna be on the next season. They Oh I
saw the cast Jesse Smallett. Yeah, and isn't. Oh there
was somebody else is Teresa?
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Good guys, Teresa and her daughter are going to be
on it.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Oh my god, there was somebody. I don't think I
saw that. It was Jesse Smallett. Yeah, he just he
just conveniently was like on the bottom of the list,
like we're just gonna slip him. There was someone else
too that I was thinking, like God, I never imagined
these people being in the same room together.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
This is so bizarre.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
There was a lot of Bravo people, I feel like
on it. Yeah, there was just a bunch of totally
unusual suspects going into it.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Not but not interested.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Especially so this lady had other she said that she
had so she was she had filler in her face
and she said she fell on her face and it
it like dislodged the filler so when it healed, it
was like in another area of her face. I'm just like, Okay,
that's something I didn't even think of before.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
But then she knocked the twothous She said she fainted
during another stuff. Yeah, I think with the filler too.
It gave her an appearance of a black eye and
it didn't go away by the time she had her wedding.
So like now that's in her wedding photos, and it's like,
was it worth it? I just hope going on this
show is worth it for all the shit she had
to go through. Yeah, no, thanks, no, all right, this
(09:55):
what is ridiculous. Police recalled after a woman was seen
dancing on the roof of a park building before climbing
into the chimney and getting stuck.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Yeah, and so like the fire department had to comment
do a rope rescue and get this lady out because
she was three feet into the chimney. And this is
like the old Santa Claus thing, like people get stuck.
It's not like she could come out the other side
and like out of the bottom like Santa does. She
was stuck in the middle of it.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
What I found funny is they were saying they were
getting reports of a dancing woman on the roof, and
then more calls came in a little bit later because
she went in the chimney and then people heard her
screaming yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
So I mean, clearly she was on something, right, Like
what was She's either she either has a mental situation
going on or she was I feel like she was
super drunk or on drugs or something because she's thirty
years old.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
They said she was conscious and alert when they retrieved her.
They ended up getting her out with minimal injuries, but
definitely not advised to go in a chimney exactly. This
episode is brought to you by the Grocerom. Guys, tune

as it's really interactive with the grocery members, which is
cool and we're really starting to get to know them
and just talk about different things that we do talk
about in the gross Room and that we don't And
(11:33):

com now to sign up and get your exclusive access info.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Okay, so over the.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Weekend, the body of a one year old girl was
found in the back of a hearsh by funeral home staff,
and now the baby's mother has been arrested for the murder.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
This story is so bizarre because someone at the funeral
home called their boss and was like, I thought there
was a doll in the hearse and it turns out
that it's a dead baby, like not in a casket
or anything. Imagine getting that phone call as a business
owner and hearing.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
That, well, you know, the headline is kind of confusing
because the headlines of anytime I looked this up, it
was like dead child found in hears, but like a
hearse is intended to transport dead bodies, right, so it's
confusing what happens. But I don't know what was going
on with this mother. The baby had evidence of strangulation,
(12:37):
so did she kill the baby and put them in
there is some weird grieving thing.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
I can't understand it.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
How did they do? You know how they figured out
because obviously, like you find a baby, you call the
baby's dad, you call the medical examiner, or how did
what did they do to determine that that was the
that's the mom? Like did they find her?
Speaker 3 (13:01):
I'm not really sure how they ended up locating the mother.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Yeah, I was just wondering, like was she a former
employee or yeah, it was quick, That's what I was saying, Like, obviously,
I know that they can do DNA because like the
easiest thing to do is like dental records, which obviously
aren't going to be available for an infant, so they
could do DNA, but that usually doesn't come back so fast.
So I was just wondering, like how they had her
(13:26):
as a suspect so fast? They could have had her
on a video or somebody and recognized her. I mean,
I understand they could do DNA, but I think they
got the mom with like in under twenty four hours,
so I don't think it would come back that fast.
And yeah, I would say probably not even if they
didn't test thing and she was in the system.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Right.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
God, it's such a weird thing to like this reminds
me of a story that actually has really nothing to
do this, But I don't know why it reminded me.
This one time, so we were working at the hospital
and of course we always there's always dead bodies in
the morgue that we pull in from the refrigerator, and
you know, so like we're not scared to see a
dead body. So one day Frank and I are eating
(14:08):
lunch and we go back because we just were like
going in the morgu to do some stuff. And so
we go back in the morgue together and we walk
in and there's just a dead lady on a gurney, Like,
no body bag, no toe tag, She's just dead on
a gurney in the morgan It was just like so weird.
(14:28):
So not in the hallway, like, not in the hallway.
She was put in the morgue, not but she wasn't
in the morg refrigerator. She was just like laying on
a gurny next to the autopsy table. So we're like,
who the hell is this? Why the hell is this
person here? Because normally when we do an autopsy, like
the bodies are in the refrigerator, we pull them into
the autopsy room, they're in a body bag. They have
(14:50):
all of this identification on them, like a tow tag,
and there's also a toe tag tied to the body
bag too, And we just went in there and we
were like she he was like warm, and we had
no idea who she was. We were just like so
then it's like you have to go to the boss
and just be like, so there's a dead lady in
(15:11):
the morgue. We don't know who she is, we don't
know where she came from. And it ended up like
it was. It was because sometimes other places would use
our morg to do like external autopsies and stuff like that,
so it was like something to do with that, but
it just like I guess, you know, the guy who
brought her what was in the bathroom. It just was
like this weird timing that we just walked in. It
(15:32):
just was like very shocking to us. Even though so
it's I feel like it's the same thing. Like you
work at a funeral home. You see dead babies, and
you see dead people all the time, but it's just
like an unusual circumstance to go into the hearst and
see a baby they're not where they're supposed to be,
not in a casket, and just being like, what the
hell is going on right now?
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Yeah, And they said it they thought it was a
doll at first. It's that is like something in true
crime stories when somebody's like, I thought it was a mannequin, Like,
it's so disturbing, it really is.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Yeah, all right.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
So this woman said she was having five to seven
headaches a week with blurred vision and pressure in her head.
She didn't think, really anything was that bad until her
partner said she couldn't remember her last name. She starts
looking into medical advice, learning about different kinds of triggers,
just doing a bunch of research, and she comes upon
this unusual technique of a dath piercing.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
So I had a lot of piercings in my day
because they were really popular in the nineties. So I
had like my eyebrow and my nose and my lip
and everything done.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
I got.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
So I was going to the same guy all the time,
and he said to me, I want to try this
new piercing on an ear. It's called the dath And
I was like, okay, whatever, because I was just like
down for it and I thought that it looked really cool.
But I will tell you when I got that piercing,
like I almost blacked out. It hurts so freakin' bad, really,
and I have like a very high tolerance for pain.
(16:58):
I just I didn't really like I remember being like, dude,
you just pierced like my head. It wasn't even my
ear because it's the inside of the cartilage against your
head that's right above your ear canal. And I had
the piercing there for a while because I didn't ever
even want to touch it because it hurts so bad
(17:19):
getting it. I was like scared to death, and I
finally took it out. I think actually when I had
to get like an MRI for something, that was when
it was like I had to take it out. It
was probably closer to when I was having childbirth, you
know what I mean, Like when I had to get
that test done, and it it just like I don't know,
(17:43):
don't I don't really know, because now that I'm thinking
about it, I'm like, I don't know if I really
did have migraines until no, I did. I had migraines
when I had it, So I don't think that that's
even a thing. But people think that you're pushing on
an acupunk your point, and it is helping people with migraines.
(18:04):
But then like the American Migraine Foundation has had to
come out and say, there's no evidence that this is
actually a thing, and it might be.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Like a placebo.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
But let's put on our tinfoil hats for a minute.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Are they Are they financially backed by the I Was
Migraine Company. I was gonna say that because like, I've
had migraines my whole life, and it's just like they
always want to put me on these medicines, medicines, medicines, right,
And then when I finally figured out that, like I
had one of these genes for celiac, and then I
was like, maybe I'm having a problem with gluten. And
(18:41):
then I stopped taking the gluten myself, and essentially cured
myself of having the same thing this girl was having,
which was like five to seven days a week of excruciating,
debilitating migraines. And I went to the migraine I was
going to like a migraine specialist, neurologist and just saying like, hey,
do you think there's anything to this. I stopped eating
(19:02):
gluteen a month ago, and like, I haven't had any
headaches as much. Maybe I get like once a month
now as opposed to once a day almost, it seemed like.
And they were like, oh, yeah sometimes, And I was like,
you didn't think to mention that to me before I
was taking drugs.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
No, they don't ask you any of this stuff. Because
I went to the migraine specialist, I was getting same
as this girl, like multiple a week. It was to
the point where I felt like I was gonna pass
out driving once. And that's where I was like, I
really have to go get this.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Taken care of.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
You.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Go there, they barely talk to you.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
They talked to you for ten minutes and they're like, oh,
here's an anti seizure medication.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
COPA max, which is freaking terrible, Like it seriously, I
think it permanently damaged my brain.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
But like when I was.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
On that, I could not talk, but I couldn't get
like what it was in my head out of my mouth.
It was terrible.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
But when I went on it, they didn't say any
of the side effects I was gonna have. I only
knew what was happening because you had been on it
for so long and you told me what side effects
I would have, and I had all of them. And
if I didn't know that going in, like tingling in
your fingertips all the time, things taste weird for a
little bit slow speech, I would have thought I had
a brain tumor and died. Like I wouldn't have known
(20:14):
any of that going in.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Yeah, so I think, like, I'm thinking about this with
the exception of, you know, the excruciating pain, and I
know people that have had this piercing down and they
didn't think it was bad. Maybe I just had a
guy that didn't do it good or something. I don't know,
But why would you I mean, I guess with piercings
there's always a risk of infection and things like that,
but why would you tell people like go out of
(20:38):
your way to be like there's no evidence that this works, like,
let them freaking try it if they want to try it.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
So that's calling bullshit because if it works for something
like think I bought those nausea bracelets for the cruise
for example, right. I didn't end up needing them on
the cruise, but last week I had a pretty horrible
twenty four hour stomach thing where I was throwing up
for like twelve hours, and I use them and it
really did help with the nausea because it's supposedly pressing
(21:04):
on like an acupuncture point. Right, So if it works
for some people, it might not for others. But if
it's helping her, let her, let her do it, Like
who cares?
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yeah, I mean I guess. I guess as a medical
organization you have to say, like, there's no medical evidence
of this, But like, I don't even know why they
would put out a statement about it, just like let
you it's it's not it's not anything insane to me
that you're like, oh, really you shouldn't do this, because
you could get really her. It's just kind of like
an ear piercing relax exactly. You could put out a
(21:36):
thing that's like, listen, we don't have any studies that
back up that this works.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
But like, if it works for you, good good, you know,
go for it.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
But yeah, she's saying since she got it done well,
she was saying at first she figured if it didn't
work whatever. She is a cute little piercing now, but
she has noticed some difference.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Yeah, so if you want to try it, but also
know that some things don't work for everyone. But it
does make me think about what's going on behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Sarah was the first thing I thought.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Of, of course, And I bet you if you went
on your website, their website, you would see like you
brelv and blah blah blah blah blah, like you know,
you know how these places roll.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
No, I can't trust anything after the Oxycotton documentary.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
I mean that truly changed my life. I will say
it every episode.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
The thing is, though, is that you can't you can't
be like you can't be anti pharmacy either, though, because
there are some drugs that are miracles that help a
lot of people.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
No, I'm totally not against medicine.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
I'm just saying in instances.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Like this now you should question, Yeah, what's going on
behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
No, medicine's awesome.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
But it's it's just weird because it's just like, you
know how everything in life is like you got to
be so extreme in either direction. It's like I feel
the same way with medicine. It's like there's lots of
natural things that you could do. I guess, like I
would say, like get a piercing on a on an
acupuncture pressure point would be considered like one of those
non medical intervention things. And then there's and then medicine
(23:09):
helps in situations too, Like it's not like all homeopathic
or all medicine. It's just like a combination of both,
and then everybody would be happy. Well, that's how everybody
should be about everything. Yeah, you have to be one
side or the other. I mean, we saw it with
the care read thing. If you're not on one side,
(23:29):
people not everyone. No, I think that with there are
certain things that we are definitely hardcore, like pedophilia being
one of them. I'm not in the middle on that
at all. That's just I'm not here like go away
and get abolished off the face of the earth kind
of thing. But okay, well that's it for today.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Yeah, we're going to be at crime Con in just
