When a whale washed up on an Oregon beach in 1970, local authorities decided that, given the horrible smell, they had to get rid of it. Their plan didn’t go brilliantly. Then we’re off to meet Elsie Eiler, the sole resident (and mayor) of the town of Monowi, Nebraska. Mel will then tell us about Frasier the lion, who after being in a circus for nine years, was sent to an animal reserve where he … left his mark. Lastly, we’ll learn about a man who died while participating in a very strange (and gross) eating contest.
