Episode description

What's Corpse Wax? Did you know there's chemicals called putrescine and cadaverine? Did you know the body has 5 phases of decomposition? All of that and more is covered in this fascinating scientific look at the process of human death, decomposition, and how we're able to measure and understand all of it through the power of research and plenty of math!

Content Warning: This episode covers many deep, gross pieces of death and decay that may not be for everyone. If you get a little squiggy around these descriptions, you may want to skip this episode!
