This is a special live episode of Terrible Trends, recorded at The Wellness Cottage during their metaphysical fair! In this double-header episode, we dive into two fascinating and peculiar trends from history. First, we explore the history of long fingernails in ancient China—what they symbolized, how they were maintained, and their cultural significance. Then, we take a bizarre detour to Russia to uncover the strange method they used to keep milk from spoiling. Sit back, hold on to your butts, and enjoy this payback episode where Colleen finally gets back at Margaret for all the times she grossed her out!
