About this episode
It’s been said that a person swallows about eight spiders in their sleep every year. It's hard to say if that story is true or not but it makes a kind of sense. Spiders like warm dark places and the inside of your mouth sure fits that description. Gross as it sounds, if the story’s true, it seems to be mostly harmless.
But what if it wasn’t? What if you swallowed a spider that wasn’t just venomous, but the most toxic spider in the world? Let's find out! But please, please, don’t try this at home. Do not eat live venomous spiders!
