Things Observed by Things Observed

Episode notes

In this episode we talk more about Lyme disease, and we specifically cover the discoverer of the bacteria responsible for Lyme Willy Burgdorfer. We discuss his work for the US Biological Weapons program ran out of Fort Detrick which includes tinkering with things as deadly as the plague. We also cover two possible bioweapons attacks on Communist Cuba as part of the CIA's psychotic cold war. This episode can get under your skin or on top of it? I don't know surely there's some sort of word play to be made
