1818: Bible Belt Buckle

Gen Z Listeners, Alpha-Gal Syndrome, Lone Star Tick

The podcast addressed its growing Gen Z audience and clarified a previous discussion regarding Alpha-gal syndrome, a meat allergy caused by the Lone Star tick. A mammalogist listener corrected the hosts on the classification of marsupials as mammals and shared a personal account of developing a beef allergy after a tick bite. The segment also noted the establishment of a new Discord server by Sir Patrick Coble to facilitate better communication among the show's "intelligence" community.
