In this episode of Bizarre AF, Alesha will delve into the unsettling connection between lead poisoning and the prevalence of serial killers in the Pacific Northwest. We explore the historical context of lead usage, its effects on human health, and the environmental consequences of smelting. The conversation also touches on ancient civilizations' use of lead, the greed that perpetuated its use, and the regulations that have been implemented to mitigate its impact. Ultimately, the episode raises thought-provoking questions about the correlation between lead exposure and crime rates, particularly in the context of the 1970s.
