Speaker 1 (00:08):
School of Humans. Oh hello, people of Cadaver Gals, Caldaver Pals,
hi Land, heyd Land. Um, this episode is going to
be a little different because we have some news that
some of you will not like. Well, if you're listening,

(00:30):
you probably won't like it. But um, first, I'm Gabby
and we have Nikai Hi and Taylor Hi. So on
today's episode, we are going to be talking about one
single death, which is the death of a podcast called
Cadaver Gals. Guys, surprise Taylor, it's canceled. No, I mean

(00:52):
it is. Taylor knows though. It's like Taylor, don't worry.
Taylor knows that it's over. But um, yeah, so we are.
I mean I guess it's it's either a hiatus or
a permanent hiatus. We will see the fewer is forever uncertain.
But unfortunately, this will be our last episode of cadavergau So. Um,
you know, thanks all of y'all for listening. We've had

(01:14):
some really good listeners. I mean, there need to be
more of you, but you know it's okay. The numbers
we have were fantastic. No, I honestly love exactly how
this went down, like truly and I think our listeners
are so special and that's that big gratitude vibes, you know. No,
that's good. Um. So what we're gonna do is we're

(01:36):
gonna tell the story of this podcast and how it died,
and you know, also recap some of our favorite episodes
and see what the best fitting death would be for Cadavergauseum,
so let's play the theme music. Why not. I don't

(02:04):
know what y'all are going to say. You don't know
what I'm gonna say. Everything is on the table right now. Yeah,
this episode, it's free form, so if you like structure,
get addie here. Listen to the previous episode. That one
was fun, wasn't. I created an outline so not to
be type a but I am a teacher's pet, and
I am it's who I am. No, it's good. Someone

(02:25):
had to be so absolutely Anyway, guys, listeners, here's what
happened the podcast. The podcast had many iterations before it
became kid averg gosh. Yeah, it started as a joke,
so it's only correct at an end in this well.
But it started almost a year ago as a joke.
Or was it two years ago? Two years ago? Oh

(02:46):
my goodness, it's been This has been like a two
year long road. Yeah. So in twenty nineteen, Taylor, Nik
and I still all went into the same office, and
at some point I was just going to say, in
the days of the megadesk, Yeah, we had a megadesk
where we Taylor and I said, across from each other,
and then Nico in the front. Unfortunately for Nika wasn't

(03:09):
the best place to be in the office. But what
happened is one of my friends who also does comedy,
who's also a public defender, she had this case at
one point that she told me about where she went
into this. It was like they were collecting evidence about
this woman who had died, and what had happened is
they had gone into her apartment building and she had melted.

(03:31):
I had forgotten that is exactly what I couldn't even
remember what we talked about that story for weeks. Yeah,
because what they think happened was that it was a
BDSM situation gone awry and then the person who accidentally
killed her or made her pass out or something. What

(03:52):
they did is this was like in the middle of
the summer in Georgia, and they left and they turned
on her heat really hot and then it was really
hot outside, so then her body just melted. And and yeah,
my friend was telling me about this that, you know,
she was telling me about the photos. And there was
also one person working on the case who I think

(04:12):
was like, so, obviously, having to look at a melted
body all the time is probably not the most fun.
So what they had done to I guess grow accustomed
to it is they had put the melted body as
their like phone background, so they were just get used
to it anyway. I don't I know, but at first

(04:32):
that was kind of like we were thinking, Okay, that's
a horrific, terrible story. But then we were thinking kind
of like about dying alone and what that even though
this she didn't technically die, she was probably killed, she
didn't technically die alone. But then we had this idea
of doing a show called Dying Alone. Well, and to
be fair, it also came out of Taylor and Gabby

(04:53):
were single at the time, and they kept making jokes
about dying alone because of this, of this unfortunate incident,
and because they were like, we're so single, We're going
to die alone. And that's also kind of where the
name came from. But I also want to die alone.
That sounds better to me. I just want that on
the record. Okay, I went on the record that I

(05:15):
was actually never single this entire time. That's true, because
never single. I was single, and then I wasn't, and
then I was single again. I've been single the whole time,
you guys, Taylor wins Um, the oldest and the singlest
of us all. Maybe it's just because I'm hise enough
to not um find a partner. Yes, that's what it is.

(05:37):
That's what it is, Taylor. Yea happened after that. So
then after that, Okay, So then after that, we were like, hey,
we have all this access to these microphones and whatnot,
let's like make a podcast about it. Like somehow we
were like, we should just do a podcast. So then
we recorded an episode right before the Christmas holiday for

(05:58):
our bosses. We gave it to the gift as a
gift as a Christmas gift unbeknownst, which was really ridiculous
because I'm pretty sure you referenced my breasts as saggy
tits that you roll up in. Um. Yeah, but that
was gifted to our bosses, which they, you know, loved

(06:20):
hearing about that. I'm sure but they did like it.
They liked the episode, not that part of it, but
they thought it was good. So unbeknownst to us, they
they sent it to send the episode to iHeart and
they were like, Okay, do a bunch of these. Just
don't say the sea word and you're good to go. Yeah.

(06:42):
My Heart's only thing was don't say the sea word,
which I found hilarious. Cunt oh gem that bad girl girl.
I'm just clarifying. I'm just clarifying. Um. But yeah, and
I also yeah, because the whole point of the show
is we were going to say every case we were
going to do, it's about people who had died alone specifically.
And now that keep in mind, this is happening end

(07:04):
of nineteen early twenty twenty eight, where there are some
other things in the world that were happening that we,
you know, weren't really considering seriously. But um, but then
we did consider it seriously. Yeah, because then Nikod, you
would tell about like that episode we recorded in then
February in which we were riffing about COVID. I don't

(07:28):
remember that. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, because I was actually
I could have had COVID at the time. Honestly, because
remember I had a really bad cough and you we
were like, do you have COVID or something. You're like
making silly jokes about it. Wow, yeah, and then we
were like oh and then things happened, as we all know,
we were all there. So then it was dying alone

(07:50):
was not an SEO searchable term, and also terrible timing
to talk about something like that, because yeah, that was
like the early part of COVID, which is like so
many people had it, knowing like people weren't getting hospitalized,
hospitals were overrun. It was terrible. So many people were
dying at home. And meanwhile we were like, well, we
had this podcast idea, so silly, and then we're just like,

(08:12):
oh no, oh no. So obviously the next move is
to just call it cadaver Gals and continue to do
the same thing that we were going to do. Well
pretty much there, it was death in general, and I
really opened it up. Who I think was it Gabby's idea?
Whose idea was it? Because I remember Rain it was

(08:33):
mine because I was I was on a ship's creek
bench at the time, and so I was like, oh,
jazz a gals, and I was like could have a Gals.
I love that we were sending each other names, silly
names for a podcast for like a week before we
figured out Cadaver Gals was what it was going to be.

(08:53):
It sounded too ridiculous at the time. Yeah, and then
also but yeah, that was the one that we liked
the best. And also moving it to general death did
work better because I honestly don't think we would have
had that many episodes, Like if a pandemic hadn't happened
and we had continued as dying alone, Like I don't
know if we would have found enough information, and like

(09:15):
if the stories would have been this is I mean,
this is like doing true crime podcasting is so morbid.
It's like I don't know if these deaths would have
been interesting enough, you know, Like well, and towards the
end I was of Cadaver Gals, I was like trying
to repeat to Oopsies. Oh yeah, where it was like
I was like, oh, yeah, we already talked about people

(09:35):
who are covered in honey and eaten by bugs off shoot,
that's so ten weeks ago, Taylor. But yeah, and then
the podcast launched, and yes, December twenty twenty, and a
lot of people were still mad about it, about us
doing a death podcast in the midst of so much death,

(09:58):
and I do think it was still poor timing, but
it was just kind of funny that it's like it
couldn't have been even worse time. Honestly, yeah, did the
haters think that it could have been worse haters? It
took us a minute to get our stride. I think
so once we did, but like we turned off enough
people in the beginning to her, it was like no
coming back from it. Absolutely, Yeah, we really found our

(10:21):
niche and it was y'all. So thanks y'all for listening, honestly,
so yeah and now so yeah, we've done fifty episodes.
First four not so good, but I feel like the
rest of them are pretty good som and we've learned
a lot of information, but unfortunately due to timing and
jobs and listenership and other things, alas cadaver Gals is

(10:46):
getting staked right through the heart. Oh is that how
you wanted to go? Well, no, I'm but I feel
like maybe it's like vampiric though, and then we could
like come back later in the future maybe as like
you know, like the vampires in like New England and
Rhode Island where they were just like, we're going to
feed off of like our surviving podcast somehow, right, right,

(11:10):
like the vampires that were feeding off of their ancestors
energy or no, the ancestors that were feeding off of
their families energy because they were actually vampires. Yeah, yeah,
that's just like that, just like that, just like that,
I mean, tuberculosis vampires. I hardly could tell the same thing,
same thing. Okay, that's a fantastic way for the podcast
to die. What about Unica, I think that the podcast

(11:35):
should die by a girl Boss death And yeah, I
actually do you guys remember when we did the girl
Boss Prophet when Gaby did Joanna Southcott's death. Oh yeah,
I don't remember. They basically, okay, Taylor, basically this is
how the podcast is going to die. So she was

(11:56):
would lived in like seventeen fifties in England, a small town,
and in her forties she got prophetic visions. She got
this like massive following. Actually she said of the next Massile,
I was gonna be a woman to like because Eve
did the bad thing, So the next MASI I was
gonna be a good thing. And it turns out that
she had a distorder that made her look pregnant, so
she said that she had the female Messiah in her belly.

(12:19):
And then and Gabby did such a great job at
telling this story. But she quote unquote had the baby,
but there was no baby, so she called it a
spirit baby. I do remember the spirit baby. Yeah. And
then she like would roast people if they were mean
to her, and like she wrote like a fifteen page
letter to this guy who like roasted her, and the

(12:39):
guy was like, dude, I don't even know you. And
she just she had a lot of haters, but she
was a girl boss to the end and never gave
up and was very firm in her beliefs. And I
just think that's how we go. That's how cadaver gas goes. Okay,
And there might be a spirit baby, you know, positively, Okay.
So I just said that that y'all are gonna make

(13:02):
fun of me, but I said that it was just
gonna die of natural causes, like how would die? Now?
But I think that we need to take enroll the
Cadaver Gauls episode or podcast into the facility in Arizona
to cryogenically freeze it so that we can use it
later if we need it. So I think that's a
very smart idea. Yeah, so I forgot about cryogenics. How

(13:25):
could you forget? That is weird? That is weird. And
the vegetable burrito, the vegetarian ba that necessary detail. Go
forget that journal entry. I had a veggie burrito and
then he died in my arms. Well, you know, we're
gonna have to really pull our moneys together. But it
would be really cute if we all were cryogenically frozen

(13:48):
too with the podcast, So just in case, like you know,
a couple hundred years later or so, they're like, you know,
we should really bring that podcast back. They can bring
us back. Wow. I mean, I'm sure more deaths will
have happened by then, so more material it will, exactly,
and we would be able to have experienced it so extraordinary,

(14:11):
much better than current. Maybe we would get good deals
too if we did, like, because we could just do
the head thing right where you think you can just
your head just getting your head frozen is cheaper, and
maybe we could do like a three for two or
something and the Okay, oh my gosh, yeah I forgot
that there are people that are actually just freezing their

(14:32):
heads because they believe that science is going to regrow
whole bodies whenever they get unfrozen. Look, that's not out
of the realm of possibility. And for me because like
most of like everything's controlled by your brain, like your
whole body. Your brain controls your whole body, so like
why would you need anything else? And what about Well,

(14:53):
but if your brain's functioning and it has something else
that's making blood go to it, it's fine. I just
think it's like so dystopian sci fi to think of
it like that, Like, what are we squints? Just growing
u tentacles? It's kind of hot human humans evolved as squids.
I've learned so much about myself on this podcast. Okay, guys,

(15:14):
we're gonna be right back, and we're going to talk
about other ways that the podcast can die based on
previous stories um that we liked. So you know, we're
going to be right back. Okay, guys, we're back, just
like hoot and hollerin that's what we're doing today. And
Nika had asked a superb question to Taylor. I did, Taylor,

(15:38):
what are your favorite episodes? Okay, I kind of feel
like you could guess that, y'all, could guess one of mine,
because I feel like I talk about him a lot?
Is it horse adjacent? No? Who's him? Whom? Who? Him? Who? Him? Him? Wait?
Wait do you want to guess? No? I literally no, mmm,

(15:58):
tycho Brahi No no, but I didn't think about him
a lot. You did, and I remincing no, Sir Hugh
Willoughby willob trying to boating around with his boys? Oh yeah,
boating with his boys? Taylor, what happened that story? I
kind of I kind of forgot. So basically, um, as

(16:21):
as it usually happens, there's a guy who wasn't very
good at boating around, and so he got promoted to
be a captain of a ship or a fleet of
three actually on the Bona Esperanza was one of was
the boat that he was on. And basically they were like, hey,
if we get lost, um let's all meet back at
this one place. Well, like pretty much immediately, Sir Hugh

(16:44):
Willoughby and one of the other boats they got lost
could have immediately they got lost. Immedia, they get lost,
I mean like right off the bat they like, getting
out of the harbor. They struggled, I'm pretty sure, but um,
how embarrassed well into like a bunch of other boats,
and you're like, oh my bad. They really did, like
they did have issues because there was like bad weather

(17:05):
or some thing and they couldn't navigate it. So they
were like two or three weeks late from the start.
But anyway, so they eventually they find some land and
it turns out there on they're like somewhere near Russia
or something, and these fishermen come and they see these
two boats. So they get on and they're like, oh
my gosh. All of these people were on like all
that from both ships were on one and they were

(17:28):
all like frozen in time. Like one was like Sir
Hugh Willoughby himself like had his pen in his hand.
He was journaling. Some of the other like there was
even like a dog that was like or a cat,
I can't remember. One of the two were chasing a
mouse and like mid chase and the mouse was like
I mean like everybody was frozen into frozen in the
air and so leaping into the air now I'm just kidding. Yeah,

(17:51):
So so yeah, and then um they're like, oh my gosh.
So like they these fishermen are call up Russia their motherland,
and they were like or they call England and they're like, hey,
come get your boys, okay, right, and so they come,
they're like, oh, we can't get them for a while
because the weather's pretty rough. So they're like, we'll come
get them a little bit later. And then one of

(18:13):
those like the ship sank and like more sinking happened
and more death happened. Oh yeah, because the dead boys
on the ship sank after they were going back. Yeah.
So so anyway, but we knew about Rob this because
of his journal, which was the modern day on Twitter.
M So what a tay was tweeting away on his

(18:37):
journal about what was going down, and so that's the teeth.
Oh no, I'm gonna die mid tweet. I don't even
h God, I don't know. I did well, I did.
My Twitter was my public radio Twitter when I did that,
but now it's just my ass joke Twitter, which is

(18:59):
embarrassing because my public radio people follow me. But now
I started a new Twitter so I could stock people
in a professional way. But I haven't tweeted a single
tweet yet. So Gabby's Twitter user name is like love
slim Jims or something like that. No, it's not it's
slim Jim abortion No, but it should be. That's my

(19:21):
comedy brand, honestly. Is what was your favorite? Gabby? Oh?
I mean I had a lot of favorites, um, because
I love myself, and I mean I think the classic
was when we called to Nicolas Cage to help us
dig up the body of Tennessee playwright Tennessee Williams so

(19:43):
that we could give him the proper burial that he wanted.
Oh yeah, yeah, that was a good It was a
good Nicolas Cage impression too. On my end, Yeah, yeah,
it was very good. But yeah, yeah, no, but you
should it was an incredible impression. And because the thing
is what I think we discovered on this podcast is
do you know sometimes people just don't respect your wishes

(20:04):
after you die. So make sure you just die, you know,
with you know where you want to be, you know,
like if you're gonna be cremated, make sure you just
die inside of a furnace or like no, I'm just kidding,
I'm fake this was fake news. Okay, anyway, Nope, Tennessee Williams,
you know, he died and he had written this whole
thing where he wanted to be thrown at this specific

(20:25):
spot in like the Gulf of Mexico, because this poet
he really liked had thrown himself overboard at this one
specific spot. So then Tennessee Williams wanted to be tied
up in a sack and thrown overboard to lie at
the bottom of the ocean, but alas, instead what happened
was then his family buried him next to his mom
in like Saint Louis, and he didn't really like have

(20:46):
like they you know, he I guess he was close
to his mom, but they had like a pretty dysfunctional
relationship as seen in like most of his work is
about like dysfunctional family relationships. So he got buried next
to his mom, which I'm sure isn't That wasn't what
he wanted. Well, remind me, did we call upon Nicholas
Cage because Tennessee Williams was a national treasure? I don't recall. Yes,

(21:08):
he is a national treasure. So that was that's how
we made that connection. Well, in Nicolas Cage like you know,
steals things, like you know, he's a tomb stealer, he's
a gray because you know, the guy in National Treasure
is just that's actual Nicholas Cage, because those are documentaries,
as we like to say about feature films. I like

(21:30):
that we also covered Graham Graham Parsons because that was
actually the exact opposite. He died and then he was
about to go get the whole tradish tradish situation, and
then his friend said, oh no you don't, and we're
super high, and went and stole his body and burned
it in Joshua tree and then left and like hid

(21:51):
for two weeks and then no charges were made. If
I if I die first and I don't get buried properly,
y'all better be steal in my body to do the
right thing. Oh anything to get high. I'm kidding out. Um,
absolutely yes, that'll be better best content. Well, don't you
just want to be obliterated? Isn't that what you said

(22:13):
you wanted with your body at one point, Taylor is
very It has changed so much over I don't I
honestly don't even know, um how Taylor's Taylor. You're the
kind of person that's like plant me into a tree. Well, yeah,
that's actually what I've always said that I've wanted. But
there was a time that I think that I was
like just obliterate me. I want no part of this. Yikes,

(22:34):
mid pandemic Taylor, that was that was the vibe? Was
that your favorite one, Nika grand Parsons, No, oh my,
I have two faves. My first fave is the Thanksgiving
dinner Amima Nelson when she killed her husband and chopped
up his body and ate some of it. And when today, oh,

(23:02):
is that the one where she like got her ex
boyfriend friend's help. Absolutely, that is the one where she
got it seems into an altercation with her new husband
of like just a month, and she killed him and
then cut up his body put some down the food processor,

(23:24):
which the neighbors were like, we heard the food pressors
there going for two days and we were real confused.
They found like pieces of his torso and the freezer
they found like apparently they never found his penis, and
they think she ate it. Yes, And so she was
freaking out because she still had I think some of

(23:45):
his head and some of the things that she couldn't
get rid of. So she went to her ex boyfriend
was like, I need help, please, I'll give you like money.
I think she offered her ex boyfriend like one of
her husband's motorcycles, and her ex boyfriend's said, of course,
of course, like, let me just put my shoes on,
called the police on her immediately, and there you have it,
and she is still in jail right now. There was
during Thanksgiving, so everyone giving dinner from hell. That's what

(24:10):
everyone calls it. But I think it's that one. And
then also probably flush eating bacteria, just because I have
a personal um connection to it, because I also I
don't I have never had flush anybody, but I think
about it a lot because I get my you know,
I get my acrylics and stuff. So now every time
I have like any amount of pain in my nail,
I'm like, is that the bacteria that eats a flush?

(24:32):
Like that's my real question. But the good thing is
that I now know all the symptoms and exactly what
to do, so I feel like that God willing will
not happen to me. And I have to thank Cadavergus
for that. Yeah, you're welcome. I'll have saved my life.
It sounds like we've made you slightly more neurotic or something,
but I think that's very possible. Possibly possibly. I mean, yeah,

(24:56):
I feel like the death that I do that I
think was too short as there was not very much
detail about it. But the one that I do think
think about probably weekly is the poodle death where the poodle,
and this was in Argentina, there is a poodle on
like the thirteenth story of an apartment building that jumped
off of a balcony landed on a woman and she died,

(25:21):
and the poodle died, and then a bunch of people
like gathered around to like see the death because it
was like, ah, terrible. And then another woman who was
in that crowd stepped backwards and got hit by a
bus and she died. And then there was like a
man down the street who was like, I think an
older man who came out of the pharmacy and had
a heart attack and then on the way to the
hospital died. So that one is just like what the

(25:44):
hell we were going to bring that up, but I
just remembered this is where we learned of Nika's disdain
for labradoodles. Oh yeah, I have said it before and
I'll say it again. They are mutations. They were never
meant to be on this earth, and they look like
people men in dog suits. Humans and dogsuits. I actually

(26:07):
am jumping on that bandwagon and let me tell you why.
Oh okay, wow, growth everybody, everybody and their mom has
elaborate like a doodle thing. I just I keep calling
them doodle things now because like everywhere I turn, I
see a doodle thing, and I'm like, what are you doing?
Everybody's being so basic with their little doodles. What are

(26:27):
you doing? What are you doing with your doodle? Right?
And like, let me ask you a question, listener, and
my friends, when's the last time you saw an actual poodle?
Not recently? Right? Who knows? I did a comedy show
at a dog park, so I did see some pood
I was that fetched the other day too. Okay, I
think you're mistaken because I think that labordoodles are actually

(26:51):
making poodles go extinct. Oh they're not going at but
they're probably not as popular as they were because they
are now other mutations. So we've created a new creature. Whatever.
If anyone wants the link to the labradudo creator saying

(27:12):
I regret my creation, I have the link to the article.
It's in my notes up and keep it with me.
Thank you, Nica. I want to I want to remind
you guys of one of my second favorite death, and
that is of m President Garfield. If you recall, yeah,

(27:32):
shot guyan man, who a white man who thought he
deserved this job that he was unqualified for. They were like, yeah,
you have to speak French, and he's like, I don't
speak French, but I deserve this job. And he's like, no,
you don't, and so he's like okay, so then he
like shoots him. Um. Really not cool and so um,
he totally could have been saved. But his doctor doctor

(27:53):
if you recall his doctor's name was doctor. Oh yeah,
he was fishing. I remember this one. This one's bad.
So he was like fishing through the wound with his
dirty fingers, not knowing about bacteria and whatnot. And then
and when Garfield began losing weight, he was given beef
stew up his bomb, which did nothing because you do
not receive nutrients that way. Um, but he was just

(28:15):
getting to expel them. He was just getting beef stew
up the bottom like two or three times a day,
and also um, a shot of whiskey to ease the pain.
You can look up the recipes. It's so it's like
two grains. It got me. It was like two to
three grains of salt got me so uncomfortable. You get

(28:36):
that salted seasoning for your stew and you're intested, And
then didn't you say that that's probably like that's what
killed him, not the gun wound. It wasn't. It wasn't
the gunshot wound. It was um sepsis from like the
bacteria from um you know, just fishing around in his
bullet wound. He could have been saved if doctor doctor

(28:57):
knew what he was doing. I do think though, that
like putting beef stew up your butt is not like
a recovery thing. Like I'm sure it didn't help, definitely not.
And like afterwards, he was like, oh, I'm gonna create
this pamphlet for you so to like tell everybody all
about it. And they were like, no, that was no,
that doesn't that's not how that works. And it was

(29:19):
like provenly proven to not work because Garfield still was
losing weight and added an exceptionally fast rate. That's a
quite perverse one, Taylor, But I yeah, I guess I
would expect that of Gabby, not of you. But it
was a president, and I just find that's so interesting.
The presidents of Crazy Stories spinoff podcast I'm kidding. I

(29:42):
really love that one. I think, yeah, I think that
the way that I think my favorite in terms of
like if I gotta go, I go, I go, Like
this is the poison one. Do you guys remember the
Tafauna water one, which one I know, I love it.
I love you know, I'm like, women can murder just
a little bit, you know, And this one hurd it

(30:02):
over six hundred men, but all because they were being
if to their to their wives, and so she created
an odorless, tasteless poison. This was in Italy, like the
fifteen hundreds, I think, and she had this like black
market basically for her poison for wives of all you know,
walks of life basically who were poisoning their husbands and

(30:25):
getting away with it. And they went really well until
one wife, you know, it was like I don't want
to do this, and therefore she was betrayed, which big drama.
You know, y'all know I love theater, so it's like
I want betrayal, like I want crazy story. I wanted
to like, you know, I want esthetic like the poison
bottles were beautiful, and and then she was hidden in

(30:46):
a convent, still working her black market operation. Through nuns
and priests, and then finally there was a revolt because
someone was like, she's poisoning the water supply, and they
all believed, and so she was tortured, confessed to over
six hundred murders of men, and then executed. Hashtag girl
boss for sure, girl bossing. Yeah, do we think we

(31:08):
should take a little break and then come back. We're
gonna take a break and come back and we're gonna
talk more. We're gonna reminisce a little bit more and
also maybe have some complaints hot gossip for you. I
don't know what the complaints. We're gonna come up with
some hot gossip for the last section of the podcast. Okay,
we'll be right back. Okay, Cold aver Gals, Cold Avergas,

(31:31):
get Cadavergals, caldaver Pals. We're back with some complaints, corrections
and you know, general reminiscences is reminiscences, reminiscences, reminiscence, pretty reminiscence.
But I guess be which here are some things we
mispronounced throughout the show. Oh yeah, na, oh no, this

(31:51):
is bad. This is this is no. I think that,
but I feel like that was the most glaring one
was the was Pike higher episode saying Pica, but that
was confirmd T confirmed it though. I was like, for sure,
that's what it is. So and we did have a
lot of good puns about it. You know, Pika chew Pika, Nika,

(32:13):
but Pika so Pike and Knife. It really just fit
our narrative better as Pika. So that's why we we choose. Yeah,
we choose our own our own truth, don't we all
as humans? Yeah, that's our truth is. Words are a suggestion.
That's all I'm saying. Um, And then oh, but then
Taylor didn't make a mistake. But then someone said she

(32:36):
made a mistake. Here's what happened. Tell us to our gear.
She we heard about this from month. Yeah, I'm I was.
I was pretty pissed about this. So we got this
like angry comment from this man. He was like, you,
I assumed it was a man. I have no idea,
but oh gosh, sex similar Seimar. They were I know, sorry,

(32:57):
they were saying that I said that in World War
One the Holocaust happened, which is not the case. I
went back and I was like, oh my god, did
I misspeak because obviously I know that the Holocaust happened
in World War Two. So we went back and checked.
All was fine. He just wasn't listened, didn't have his
listening ears on, and I would like to stay yet again,

(33:19):
I had just finished a whole TV series on World
War Two, and so I was up on my World
War Two knowledge, especially at that time. So do not
tell me that I don't know World War Two versus
World War One, which let's be clear, I don't know
a lot about World War One. I will admit that,

(33:39):
but I know that the Holocaust was World War two.
Oh yeah, that's right, Taylor. You know that information? Say it?
You tell him? I love that, and then I think, yeah.
The episode I think that got maybe the most haters
was the rat torture episode, which yes we I yes,

(34:01):
have complained about this, but I still think about it
all the time and what it means for our society,
about the complaints we got. Because Niga, that was yours
right where you talked about you talked about what is
rat torture? Remind us what rat torture is? You know.
I'm so glad you asked, because I actually did have
this in my outline. First of all, let me talk

(34:22):
a little bit about my idea around this story. So
scared of rodents. Okay, I'm really scared of them. Do
I want them to die? Do I want them to
be executed? No? I don't. That's not what I'm implying
when I say that I'm scared of them. I just
do not like them. I think their tails are very

(34:43):
thick and pink, and they don't have hair. Do their
faces look cute? Yes, Okay, we're gonna give you that. Now. Listen.
I faced my own trauma. I said, you know what,
people have used rats in the past. I can't I
can't even say the word. I'll say it. Okay, rats
in the past to kill people. It is a proven fact,

(35:04):
as many other people have used animals in the past
to kill people. Because people are terrible. I don't know
if you understood. In Cadavergals. That is kind of the
point of this show is to tell you that people
in the past and the present are pretty terrible, especially
in the past. Well who knows. Anyway, Well, it's still
set today, so I yeah. Well, so I faced my

(35:25):
own trauma, and apparently it cost some controversy. I started
by basically talking about where rat torture came from it
was in London where like the underground Chamber and the
Tower of London would flood and then rats would pour
in to the prisoners and nibblanem and it was just
nival time was eating time. And then Emperor Nero also
loved to play hungry rats and he would put them

(35:47):
in a barrel with you know, with a torture person
or whatever, and the rats would eat through the people
or they would get executed or the very at least tortured.
And this guy diedrich. So Annoy also loved torturing people
with rats during the Dutch revolt. He was like known
for it. So this has been happening for a while. Okay,
it's not a surprise. And when I faced my fears

(36:09):
and I talked about my trauma, it caused a backlash.
Your trauma, your trauma has Gabby's song. Your trauma triggered
somebody else's trauma, which was just like because I mean
also the gross thing with the medieval like rat torture, right,
it was like they would put the munch of hungry
rats like in a baskin and then place it on

(36:30):
top of your belly and then they would like eat
through you, which that's you know, that's a little nasty.
But then all of the fucking people on the internet
were like, I can't believe you talked about that much
detail in reference to the rats. She was like, speak
for the rats, okay she was the people. Oh absolutely,

(36:53):
she was like, it's honestly so rude that you would
talk about rats being killed in this way. Mind you,
we don't know if the rats were killed, Okay, I
think that they had full tummies. Actually I think they
probably lived long and prosperous lives. I mean, they were
tords you, but so were the people. Like to come on, like,
so are the people too. There was I think a

(37:14):
child death in that same episode, Well it's child mutilation.
It was, yeah, it's or Narrow. He first all narrow
like killed his wife by like kicking her down the
stairs and then replaced her with a boy who he
castrated to look like his wife basically, And there's child molestation,
child torture, child death, all this stuff. But the rats,

(37:36):
the rats, that's the line. The rats were where we
draw the line. And it wasn't just one person. It
was like several people like complained because it's like a
breathantly small show. So when you like get any sort
of complaints, you're like, what the hell, what the hell?
Guys like, but there was like multiple people who complained
about how we described I don't even feel like we

(37:58):
like described the rats, like what was happening with the
rats that much, But it's just like doing just what
they were doing. Yeah, And I guess we were too
on chalant about it. I mean, sorry, Yeah, I'm not sorry.
I don't know. I thought it was pretty funny. It
was very funny, but it just like, you know, in
terms of I like, I feel like, you know, we're
all very like animal rights here, you know Taylor, we

(38:20):
always have Taylor's angle of the animals, and we got
we think about that. But you know, also that wasn't
the point of the rats. That wasn't you know, like, yeah,
care about animals. It's also animal welfare is a public
safety issue, it's a public health issue. It's all these
other things too. And yeah, we're probably the reason why

(38:41):
there are too many rats like in New York and
other places, because we just let them fester. And that's
what happens, you know, when you build civilization and shit.
And also but then we did talk about Strictney and
how people have been abandoning Strickney as rat poison because
it hurts the rats too much. So we have done
some rat we are advocating for the rats too. Yeah,

(39:01):
we're doing some active healing at the moment. Now we
only talk about Strickney, and we talked about it in
terms of people poisoning other people. And that's okay though,
that's okay anyway. So what a rat torture? What a
fun What a fun year it's been. What a year,

(39:22):
I guess, Taylor, what was your most if the rats
were the most traumatic one? For Nico, what was your
most traumatic one was? I can't even speak of it.
You know what it is? Oh my god. We had
to record it twice. The first time they made me cry.
They being Nico and Gubby, y'all made me cry. And
so I said this in that last episode, the one

(39:44):
that we recorded, and I'll say it again, A we
didn't make you cry. Your trauma made you cry. Okay,
Honestly I was really worried about you though. You were
super triggered. And we are talking about the equine horse.
I forget how you what exactly that Basically the horse
going in the man's butt, and then busting his intestine,

(40:05):
and and the yep, and when I accidentally saw some
horseborn oh don't boy, and and and then I got
to do the little segment of what can and cannot
you put up your butt? Yeah, and you can put
a lot of things. Yeah, live eels. Gabby, were you

(40:26):
ever triggered? No, I'm dead on the inside. So um,
I'm just kidding. That is sad where I'm like, yeah,
nothing really affects me anymore more. That's okay, Gabby, You're
the strong one for Nika and I. I think this
was the triggering moment that you're you just not realize
you're dead inside. I'm just dead inside. I mean, I

(40:47):
think what was actually like triggering for this show, Like,
this show was a large emotional upheaval at the beginning
of it because we had so many like negative comments
on um the show. So I do feel like the
six weeks after we launched, I felt like shit, Like
I felt so bad because you know, you have people

(41:10):
telling you you're a bad person for like talking about
death in sort of this like cavalier manner, And at
that point I was like kind of on board with
that opinion. But now I'm like, I think there's different
people doing different things, different roles, Like I don't have
those like necessary those ethical qualms anymore. But you know,
you'd get that criticism of like you're a bad person,

(41:31):
or you would also get criticism like you're boring and stupid,
or you get criticism like you're a fat bitch, which
identify as a chunk cunt. So let's oh, sorry, I'm
saying kind again, but I'm just saying it's I think
that was like something like a learning experience that I'm
sure like a lot of people like go through when
you like launch something that people are like listening to,

(41:53):
which is that they're going to be so many opinions
about the thing that you're doing, and you kind of
like I have just learned, I do not look at
comments online anymore. I haven't looked at our reviews since
those first six weeks. I haven't like like even on
like our Instagram, Like I don't necessarily look at the
comments on what our posts or I don't like and

(42:15):
like other things in my life too, I just like
I don't. I've put blinders on to kind of like
that feedback because I didn't find it constructive. You know, well,
I think saying you're a fat bitch is not a
very constructive criticism. You know, does somebody call you a
fat bitch gubby? Well that was from TikTok. That's more
of my TikTok stuff. But I think there's like a

(42:37):
lot of like TikTok interaction and then this podcast created interaction.
And yeah, so any advice for people who are trying
to start things that gets like attention before you're necessarily
ready for attention. It's just like, don't you can't take
that shit to heart, like what people say, because people
are just gonna say negative things and their opinion just

(43:00):
as long as you feel like you're aligned with your
like have valuees, have morals. But like also what people
any criticism you can think of, people are going to
say that about you, and even more creative ones. But
usually criticism is not that creative. There's like five different
types of criticism I feel, and then just people saying

(43:20):
yas queens sometimes, which is nice, but you need like
you need like seventy yas queens to like compensate for
one like you're a bad person. I feel, Yeah, yep,
I think you're a great person learning and like moment
for you. Yeah, I think you're great too, Gabby, thank you,
but yeah, I guess I would like to say, lastly,
so thank you to everyone who listened. And it was

(43:41):
very nice that y'all stuck around and we it was
really nice to get to know some of you all
on the internet. And then also you know, I mean,
it's like it has been nice to have like that interaction,
to have like that those positive reinforcement and also people
like excited to hear us talk about Really, I would
be just how bizarre humanity is. Oh my gosh, really

(44:03):
so bizarre. Yeah, so very grateful to everyone who is
We love you so much listening. We love you, You
love you. If you were nice to us, yeah, only
only it. Yeah, just we're just three sensitive people who
made a show. So yes, thank you for listening. And

(44:24):
maybe we'll be back one day time. We'll tell dad.
And now to the bar, gol
