  We have history to thank for many things, but also for a lot of misinformation that lasted in some cases for centauries! There is a long list of diseases that we woefully misunderstood up until quite recently. Today we chat through some of histories big hitters, like the black death, HIV/ AIDS, and syphilis.

Today we discuss the very different lives of two brothers, one a hero and one a monster. The first who was abducted and abused for a huge portion of his formative young life, who escapes, saves another young boy in the process and is considered a hero. The other remains in his family's safe care, raised by those who love him becomes a serial killer brutally murdering 4 women and is considered a monster. A truly interesting couple of cases in the question of Nature vs Nurture, and how their experiences did not decide the outcome of these two men's lives.
