659: Old People Smell, Fish on Drugs, & Mosquito Bites

Sarah has the giggles when she tries to fall asleep, so today we hear why you think things are funnier at bedtime. We discuss "old people smell," and learn why different age groups have different odors and whether it's hygiene, hormones, or just the smell of death. Sarah finds out why fish in certain rivers are hopped up on drugs and why it's affecting fish populations. We discuss the practice of putting ashes of a loved one in your tattoos and we revisit the skin preservation and framing trend. Finally, we hear whether certain people are prone to getting bit by mosquitoes and what factors influence their attraction to you.
