This week on Blurry Hysteria, we slither into science's weirder corners with two stories that ask the age-old question: “Wait… you did WHAT to yourself?”First up, we meet a man who voluntarily got bitten by hundreds of venomous snakes. No, it's not a new Jackass reboot—this real-life serpent sponge may have accidentally stumbled into creating a universal antivenom. Spoiler: His blood is basically Gatorade for science.Then we chill things way down (literally) as we dive into the world of cryonics horror stories—where getting frozen after death might be cooler in theory than in practice. From misplaced heads to the kind of lab hygiene that would make a raccoon say “ew,” it's a frozen nightmare that's less Walt Disney's dream and more your uncle's meat freezer.Join us for a venomous, brain-freezing romp through the strange side of science—where survival and sci-fi horror are only a syringe apart.Links & Resources

4.15.25 | "How To Respond When A Snake Bites You" | Bishop R. L. Williams by The Rock Church of Fort Myers

Join Rich and Ron as they recap the Cubs' four-game split with the Arizona Diamondbacks. The duo takes a big circle around the four-game set, beginning with the bullpen blowup over the course of a few games. Although it's early, the guys are frustrated. From there, the guys touch on some of the good. Baserunning, hitting, starting pitching, and defense were all positives for the Cubs. However, the idea of spending money on the bullpen and premier players sours the long-term message for some current positivity. Closing out the show, the guys look ahead to the A's series before closing down our first Sunday show of the season!

#713 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/713  Presented by: Yellowstone Teton Territory Scott Reimer, head guide at The Lodge at Palisades Creek, shares invaluable insights into the unique mutant Stonefly hatch, one of the most fascinating hatches in the Western fly fishing scene. Throughout the episode, you will be guided through the South Fork of the Snake, learning not only where and when to fish a double dry fly setup but also mastering the art of reading water and setting the hook. Whether you're an avid fly fishing enthusiast or a curious beginner, Scott's tips on drift boat fishing and exploring small creeks will equip you with the tools to enhance your fly fishing adventures. Episode Chapters with Scott Reimer on The Lodge at Palisades Creek 2:07 - Scott recalls his first encounter with fly fishing in the Black Hills of South Dakota, where he received his first fly rod at the age of four or five. Encouraged by his father, who was an avid fly fisherman, Scott honed his skills in the backyard with a makeshift target practice involving a piece of pipe cleaner and a trash can lid. 4:23 - Scott discusses the guiding season, which typically begins in April when he starts assisting at the fly shop and occasionally running trips, depending on the weather and interest from clients. The main focus of their guiding is on the South Fork of the Snake River, as they hold a permit that allows them to operate there exclusively due to Idaho's strict regulations. 6:34 - We discuss the geography of the area, noting the confluence of the South Fork and Henry's Fork, which marks the beginning of the main Snake River. Scott clarifies that American Falls is approximately 60 to 70 river miles from this confluence. 9:19 - Our chat delves into the impact of hatches on fishing success. Scott explains that fish behavior is closely tied to these natural events, influencing when and where they bite. While some hatches are predictable, others have become less prolific, affecting fishing strategies. 10:02 - Scott shares his journey and experiences as a guide at the lodge, where he has been working for 12 years. He recounts his early days on the river, starting with his first drift boat, an older Clackacraft he acquired at the age of 18. Despite its imperfect condition, with visible repairs and missing parts, it served its purpose and floated well. 12:06 - He discusses the various hatches that anglers eagerly anticipate throughout the fishing season. He mentions the early spring betas, noting that while trout don't often feed on them from the surface, streamer fishing can be effective during this period. As the season progresses into mid-June, anglers can expect a short but excellent green Drake hatch, primarily on the lower river. 13:11 - Scott explains his approach to determining fishing techniques, often starting with a dry dropper setup and adjusting based on fish activity. He shares a memorable experience from the previous season, where he successfully used double dry fly setups for several weeks following the salmon fly hatch, with fish heavily focused on caddis patterns. This technique involved using different sizes and patterns of caddis flies for effective fishing. 14:07 - We get into his double dry fly set up. Scott explains the strategy behind using a larger, more visible dry fly alongside a smaller, less visible one to keep track of potential bites while fishing from a boat. This setup helps maintain visibility and improve the chances of a catch. 18:09 - Scott talks about the logistics and characteristics of the sections near Palisades Dam. He explains that the fishing area is divided into four sections, covering approximately 66 river miles down to Menan. The colder waters from the dam influence the timing of hatches, with the upper section starting later than the lower sections. 19:40 - He shares some essential tips for fishing from a drift boat, especially focusing on the South Fork. As a rower, his primary role is to maintain the drift and guide anglers on when to recast. He advises keeping a 45-degree forward casting angle to maximize success, as casting behind the boat is less effective. Scott notes that on the South Fork, long casts are unnecessary because shorter casts near the boat can be just as fruitful. 21:11 - We discuss how the salmon fly hatch typically occurs in July, followed by the appearance of golden stones, which progress from the lower river upwards. Scott reminisces about a particularly good salmon fly hatch, recalling fishing well into August with these flies. As the season progresses, anglers can expect a variety of mayflies such as PMDs, sulfur duns, and mahogany duns, especially on overcast days. Towards the end of August, the unique mutant stonefly emerges which are best fished in the early morning. Scott shares the excitement of early morning fishing programs, where anglers start at dawn to target these skittering insects using patterns like Dornan's Water Walker. 23:16 - Scott shares insights into the best fishing practices, emphasizing the importance of water temperature and timing. He recommends fishing with stonefly nymphs, such as patched rubber legs, when water temperatures approach 50 degrees, just before the hatch. This period, often in June, is prime for targeting stonefly nymphs before the larger hatch in July. 28:20 - The conversation highlights the differences between the rivers, with the Henry's Fork experiencing hatches earlier due to its status as a tailwater. 32:30 - Scott shares that Henry Winkler and his wife Stacy are frequent visitors to the area, with Stacy often being guided by Scott himself. They fish separately to enjoy the prime position at the front of the boat, which is typically the best spot because guides naturally focus on the forward drift. This strategy gives the angler in the front the first opportunity at the catch, especially effective when using a double dry fly setup. 37:32 - Scott shares insights into techniques, particularly when navigating new water or changing conditions. He emphasizes the importance of adapting techniques based on the fish's behavior and water conditions. He advises getting the fly close to the bank, especially when fishing with a single dry fly, as fish might be hiding in submerged grass. However, after certain hatches, fish tend to move to seam lines, making a dry dropper setup more effective. Scott suggests adjusting your approach if fish are not biting, such as changing the depth or the type of flies used. He describes using a double dropper setup, with a big dry fly and a couple of feet to the first dropper, and even adding an unweighted pheasant tail nymph if necessary. He notes that fish behavior can change rapidly, sometimes overnight, requiring anglers to frequently modify their strategies to find success. 39:09 - Scott highlights the significance of local fly shops, such as the Swan Valley, for current fishing insights and guidance. 41:15 - We ask how anglers can avoid missing strikes when fishing with a nymph. Scott emphasizes the importance of setting the hook frequently, noting that "sets are free." He advises that if something seems suspicious with the dry fly, anglers should set the hook without hesitation. Treating the set like a recast means they won't lose much time, and although it might not always be a fish, there's always the possibility that it is. 44:40 - Scott shares his bucket list trips, highlighting New Zealand and Patagonia as top destinations for their exotic fishing opportunities, including the elusive peacock bass. 45:00 - The conversation shifts to Scott's personal experiences with steelhead fishing. He frequently spends time at the Clearwater and Salmon Rivers, with both offering unique challenges and rewards. 47:46 - We talk about the logistics and planning required if you're planning to fish during the prime salmon fly hatch season on the South Fork of the Snake River. Below are some key things to remember: Lodging Guest Advantage: Guests staying at lodges have booking priority. They can reserve trips up to a year in advance when they are checking out, ensuring their spot for the next season. Day Trip Bookings: While day trips are available, they typically fill in the gaps left by lodging guests. Booking for day trips usually opens in April, and availability is limited. Guide Preferences: Lodging guests have the flexibility to select their preferred guides. Day trip customers, however, might need to go with whichever guide is available at the time of their booking. 49:18 - Scott walks us through their lodge. The lodge is set on a 26-acre property featuring a private pond stocked with large trout, fed by a spring creek that runs through the grounds. Guests can stay in various cabins, including a unique cabin with a porch extending over the river, providing an exceptional view. They offer dining with breakfast and dinner, and guests have access to a dedicated staff ensuring a great experience with cocktails and excellent food. 53:08 - We ask some random questions such as his music preference, restaurant recommendations, among others. Scott shares his favorite local restaurants like the SnakeBite and Sandpiper for good meals after a day of fishing. He also highlights the Mountain America Center, which hosts events like hockey games and concerts. Scott mentions enjoying hard rock and metal music, specifically naming Kingdom of Giants as a favorite band. Show Notes:  https://wetflyswing.com/713   

00:46 Designing new antivenoms to treat snakebitesResearchers have shown that machine learning can quickly design antivenoms that are effective against lethal snake-toxins, which they hope will help tackle a serious public health issue. Thousands of people die as a result of snakebites each year, but treatment options are limited, expensive and often difficult to access in the resource-poor settings where most bites occur. The computer-aided approach allowed researchers to design two proteins that provided near total protection against individual snake toxins in mouse experiments. While limited in scope, the team behind the work believe these results demonstrate the promise of the approach in designing effective and cheaper treatments for use in humans.Research Article: Vázquez Torres et al.11:28 Research HighlightsHow male wasp spiders use hairs on their legs to sniff out mates, and how noradrenaline drives waves of cleansing fluid through the brain.Research Highlight: ​​​​​​​Male spiders smell with their legsResearch Highlight: ​​​​​​​How the brain cleans itself during deep sleep13:53 Earth breaches 1.5 °C climate limit for the first timeNews broke last week that in 2024, Earth's average temperature climbed to more than 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels for the first time.

It's estimated that snakebites kill more than 30,000 people across sub-Saharan Africa every year, and leave thousands more with permanent disabilities. Yet, 70% of cases go unreported, especially in rural areas where access to treatment or antivenoms is limited. In today's episode, Alan Kasujja speaks to Dr Blessing Kasenge, who is campaigning for better access to antivenoms, and Rudo Nalondwa, a Zambian student who shares her harrowing experience of surviving a snakebite and the challenges she faced in getting proper care.

Conversations is bringing you a summer treat — a collection of Sarah's most memorable guests through out the years. Brendan James Murray tells the story of the hunt to capture the Australian coastal taipan, and the quest to create the world's first taipan antivenom in his book Venom. Listen here to Sarah's other Conversation with Brendan James MurrayThe story of George Rosendale, a 19-year old from Hopevale North Queensland, became the stuff of legend when he survived being bitten by a coastal taipan.One bite from the snake was usually lethal.Brendan James Murray unearthed George's story when researching a book about snakes.He became fascinated by the near-hysteria surrounding the search for the coastal taipan in northern Australia after WWII. This species had been thought of as a myth by Europeans until 1933, when local Indigenous people led naturalist Donald Thompson to a living specimen. To the Wikmunkan tribe, the snake was known as the Nguman, and it was seen as a part of the landscape, but best avoided. For Europeans, the discovery of a living taipan began a scramble for an anti-venom for the lightning-fast snake with hooded eyes, which could kill with one strike. This episode of Conversations contains discussions about taipans, brown snakes, venom, antivenom, Australian fauna, reptiles, Australian history, poison, poisonous snake, Queensland, hospital, lethal venom, author, biology, medical research, snake bites

According to the World Health Organisation, roughly 1 to 2 people die from snakebite in Australia each year.

Show Notes:  https://wetflyswing.com/677   Presented By: Yellowstone Teton Territory Sponsors: https://wetflyswing.com/teton  Today, we explore Fly Fish Food Jimmy's, a top fly shop in the West, now under new management. Join us as we speak with Madison Losee, the new shop manager. She'll share tips for your next fly fishing trip, including ways to avoid crowds on the famous Henry's Fork and her preferred techniques over the dry dropper method in summer. Madison will also share stories, including a surprise visit from a celebrity. Whether you're heading to Idaho or looking to up your fishing game, this episode is filled with insights you won't want to miss! Episode Chapters with Madison Losee on Fly Fish Food Jimmy's 2:17 - Madison explains that after a changeover, the fly shop significantly increased its inventory, especially in fly selection, now offering four times as many flies as before. This expansion was aimed at accommodating the needs of both local fly tying enthusiasts and visitors preparing for fishing trips. The shop is positioned as a central hub for anglers heading to famous fishing destinations such as the Henry's Fork and the South Fork of the Snake River, benefiting from its strategic location near major highways. 4:01 - She discusses her background and experience leading up to her first managerial role at Fly Fish Food Jimmy's. She explains that while this is her first position as a manager, she has a strong retail background from high school and has grown up working for her family's drift boat company, giving her a long-standing connection to the fly fishing industry. 6:47 - Madison talks about the experience of running a fly shop in Idaho Falls, which attracts both locals and tourists. Common questions from visitors include where to fish and what equipment to use. She also highlights the shop's proximity to prime fishing locations like Henry's Fork and South Fork, which are about 30 to 45 minutes away from town. 10:45 - She describes the team at the fly shop. Madison has been with the shop since June of the previous year. She enjoys interacting with regular customers, learning from experienced fly fishers, and staying updated on new products and gear, which she finds both fun and educational. 21:41 - We talk about Jimmy Gabettas, who was the owner of Jimmy's All Seasons Angler before it was bought by Fly Fish Food. Madison shares that Jimmy is enjoying his retirement by taking bucket list trips, including a recent one to Mongolia, and continues to engage in fishing and hunting. Despite retiring, he still visits the shop regularly to stock up on tying materials and shares his fishing experiences with the staff. 15:04 - Madison mentions spending considerable time fishing in Wyoming and expresses particular enjoyment in fishing the Snake River through Jackson, indicating it's a favorite spot. 17:02 - We talk about fishing in the Snake River area in western Wyoming, specifically through Grand Teton National Park and Jackson Hole. Madison explains that while having a boat allows for covering more water, it is not essential for fishing there, though caution is advised due to areas with strong whitewater currents. 19:13 - We get into the best times to fish the South Fork of the Snake River. She mentions that although fishing is possible year-round, her favorite times are May and June during runoff, and especially July during the salmon fly hatch. She explains that this hatch is influenced by water temperatures and can be followed through different sections of the river, typically lasting a couple of weeks from the end of June to early July. 20:24 - Madison shares her preference for using large dry flies rather than a dry dropper setup, highlighting her technique of casting close to overhanging trees and "twitching" the fly to attract fish. She emphasizes the importance of precision in casting, even at the risk of losing flies to tree branches, and describes the satisfaction of making a perfect cast. She also explains her method of twitching the fly by wiggling the rod tip to create movement, which she finds effective in attracting cutthroat trout on the South Fork. 25:37 - She mentions the products available at the shop. Madison also recommends some gear to bring when you a plan a fishing trip to their area. When it comes to casting instruction, she mentions that due to the shop's downtown location, they don't offer in-person coaching. 28:01 - I briefly share about my recent interview with Chris Korich, the coach of renowned fly caster Maxine McCormick. Chris shared insights on how Maxine began casting at the age of nine and quickly won championships, attributing part of her success to the type of rod used. Our episode with Chris will be released in November. 30:46 - Madison describes the experience of visiting their fly shop, highlighting their extensive fly-tying materials section. The shop maintains its original structure, with enhancements for more inventory. 35:48 - She highlights her top flies, mentioning the Chubbys as a must-have. She also mentions the "Pink Albert," which she describes as a fly with a pinkish hue, resembling a pink PMD or potentially a brown drake subspecies. 37:07 - We delve into the gender dynamics within the industry, specifically in fly shops. Madison notes that there is a slim percentage of women visiting the shop, which she finds interesting considering her own background in the industry. She also shares her personal experience of being questioned about her fishing skills despite her position as a shop manager. 40:48 - We ask Madison about some local attractions in Idaho Falls. She recommends The SnakeBite, a well-known local restaurant, popular even among celebrities like Harrison Ford, who visits when he's in town. She also tells a story about encountering Ty Burrell from "Modern Family" at their fly shop, highlighting the area's appeal to celebrities. Beyond dining, she describes Idaho Falls as a hub for outdoor activities, including hiking, dirt biking, mountain biking, and hunting. 42:55 - We discuss fishing opportunities throughout the year in Southport, which remains productive, especially with mid-hatch nymphing. Madison explains that the water stays open, allowing for fishing without obstacles. We also talk about the proximity of steelhead fishing, noting it's about three hours away at the Salmon River, while the Clearwater River is six to seven hours away. 44:23 - Madison talks about how to make the most out of visiting a fly shop. She shares a perspective that visitors should consider spending money, as a form of appreciation for the advice received, instead of just collecting information and purchasing nothing. She also notes that fishing doesn't require expert skills everywhere, as even beginners can succeed. 46:22 - Madison admits she has never tried Euro nymphing, although she acknowledges its popularity. She explains her preference for fishing in her own style, even if it means not catching a fish. Show Notes:  https://wetflyswing.com/677

Imagine you're exploring the great outdoors when, out of nowhere, you feel the fangs of a snake – a poisonous snake – breaking through your skin. Medical care is nowhere in sight, so you're left with the terrifying prospect of venom slowly infecting your body's critical functions.  This is the reality that roughly five million people face annually. Over 500,000 of which either die or are permanently maimed or suffer long-term cardiovascular/neurological impairments.   However, Drs. Rebecca Carter and Matt Lewin are working to change that. Their work at Ophirex revolves around further developing Varespladib, a repurposed drug, as an accessible and affordable oral treatment to instantly combat venomous snakebites. By ingesting a small tablet or capsule, victims can buy time to seek out more advanced care, giving them a better chance to limit complications and prevent death.   Join us as we explore the impacts snake venom has on the body, how Drs. Carter and Lewin discovered Varespladib, how collaborations and partnerships have benefited their development of this treatment, and what can be done to improve its accessibility, especially in remote areas of the world.Show NotesOphirex Lifesaving Antidotes Antivenoms -_World Health Organization Interventions for the Preventing Reactions to Snake Venoms - National Institute of Health

Justice was served as a cop pulled over a mom at school drop-off today. Snake bit a man on the balls while he was using the toilet. Chick-fil-a plans to launch a streaming service. Also, I crown Popeyes as being the better chicken sandwich. Americans swear the most in the world. Adam Sandler was on with Jimmy Fallon talking about Happy Gilmore 2. Including a cameo by Taylor Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Plus, Rapid Fire makes its return!!

With the much anticipated early bird hunting season finally upon us in a few weeks, I've received quite a number of emails and messages concerned about snakes and questions about the Rattlesnake Vaccine so I thought it would be worth republishing the episode I recorded last year with Chris Jenkins of the Orianne Society where we talked everything snakes and how it pertains to all of us with dogs.

Types of venomous snakes and the regions they are found "Safe" temperatures for snakes to stay underground "Venom" vs. "poisonous" and the types The vaccine. Effective or not? How does Chris keep his dogs safe from snakes? Snake aversion training Non venomous snake bite concerns The make up of a bite: dry/wet, location, etc. Breaking snake myths - Snake Talk Episode 83.

First up this week, Staff Writer Adrian Cho talks with host Sarah Crespi about a fusion company that isn't aiming for net energy. Instead, it's looking to sell off the high-energy neutrons from its fusion reactors for different purposes, such as imaging machine parts and generating medical isotopes. In the long run, the company hopes to use money from these neutron-based enterprises for bigger, more energetic reactors that may someday make fusion energy. Next, we hear from Tian Du, a Ph.D. candidate in the Dr John and Anne Chong Lab for Functional Genomics at the University of Sydney. She talks about finding antivenom treatments by screening all the genes in the human genome. Her Science Translational Medicine paper focuses on a strong candidate for treating spitting cobra bites, but the technique may prove useful for many other venomous animal bites and stings, from jellyfish to spiders. This week's episode was produced with help from Podigy. About the Science Podcast Authors: Sarah Crespi, Adrian Cho Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

By Steve Myers in Cincinnati East, OH - June 22, 2024 - Just when we have everything planned out for our lives and things are going well - something unexpected comes along. A shipwreck of an illness; a snake bite of a job loss; a detour of plans; an unexpected change in circumstances. It may cause you to wonder, “Where is God in this situation? God, are you really leading and guiding me?” This sermon addresses God's perspective as he leads our life and lessons to learn about his guidance.
