Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we venture into a "yokai-esque" territory with a story about gut bug monsters from medieval Japan! Do little devilish monsters live inside our bodies that influence our health and give us diseases? The answer is yes - science confirms it. But what kinds of bugs? Sinister little beetle men who snitch about your misdeeds to the gods? Turtle clumps that wear little hats to protect themselves from acupuncture medicine? How's your gut bacteria feeling these days? We discuss all this and more!
