Details for the Live Box of Oddities Fall Tour Here! What separates a stroke of brilliance from a spectacularly bad idea? In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro dive headfirst into history’s most baffling tightrope walk between genius and ridiculousness—where “visionary” and “what were they thinking?” become disturbingly interchangeable. Then, things get even weirder: scientists are turning spinach leaves into functioning human hearts through tissue engineering. Yes, the same greens in your salad could one day pump blood through your veins. From questionable intentions to leafy life support, this episode blends the bizarre with the groundbreaking in ways only The Box of Oddities can. Tune in for strange science, hilarious commentary, and stories that prove reality is stranger than fiction. #WeirdScience #TissueEngineering #OdditiesPodcast #GeniusOrMadness #TheBoxOfOddities Learn more about your ad choices.
