In this episode, we discuss a myriad of fascinating stories relating to the Voodoo religion, practices, and real-life zombies. If smoking a foot long cigar and drinking a liter of rum with 2 pounds of hot peppers in it sounds like a good use of your Friday night, then you may want to look into converting to the Voodoo religion. Seriously, are they running a religion or a continuous frat party? Anyways, Imagine having a random tris with a pretty lass then proceeding to have a dream every night for the next two months where you get your ass handed to you by a guy with a snake head. Seems unjust right? But eventually you find out that the pretty lass from your previous sexcapade was actually married to the Voodoo serpent God Djamballah-Wedo. Turns out, you played mister steal your girl with the wrong supernatural entity. I’m pretty sure it’s going to take an exorcism to unring that bell. And finally, if you find yourself in Haiti, it’s best to play nice with everyone. Because if someone has a grudge against you, you may find yourself thinking that you’ve died and gone to hell, only to be brought back to a zombie existence in return for eternal servitude to a friendly witch doctor. It could always be worse…..probably.
