Episode 650: Snakes: On A Mothaf*ckin’ Podcast!

On this episode of The Sofa King Podcast, we look at the animal that even makes Indian Jones’ skin crawl—snakes. Found through all of human mythology, this slithery mother can represent medicine and healing or Satan and destruction. It is an animal so radically different than humans, that it might as well be an alien. It has senses we can’t imagine, is a ruthless killer, and is a primal fear in much of the human population. So, what are the most deadly snakes? Where are they found? What exactly is snake wine, and where (and why) do you drink it? What country has the most snake deaths, and why is antivenom one of the craziest medicines to produce? Listen, laugh, learn.   Visit Our Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/adder https://www.livescience.com/deadliest-snakes.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snakes_in_mythology https://www.history.com/news/snake-symbol-history-mythology
