It's all lab coats and frozen dead guys this week on Afternoonified as we explore the world of cryonics! We'll get into how nature has figured out it's own freezing and unfreezing processes and how humans have adapted that for their own purposes. There's also a handy guide on what to expect when you've mostly died and want to be put into cryonic suspension to be revived in a couple hundred years (probably)!

We're back with the thrilling conclusion of the Holy Rollers saga! Strap in and get ready because this episode has more twists than a dance hall in 1962 and fewer reasonable people than you'd hope for.

Okay, it's not, but when Emily makes a promise, she delivers! This week we're actually talking about birds and babies again... as in a selection of stories about birds kidnapping babies and how many men with guns it takes to fight off an eagle.

Before you pick up that oil painting of a crying boy at your local thrift shop, maybe take a second to consider that it's cursed... This week, we're taking a look at a couple of cursed objects that range from kitschy art to literal historical artifacts and what effect they had on the people who encountered them.
Also, we know we were actually thinking of David Attenborough, not Richard. It'll make sense later.

We all have that one project that we've been working on for what feels like forever. But imagine that half done jigsaw puzzle was actually the largest church in the world and you've been picking away at it for over a hundred years.

The story of Cleopatra seems pretty straightforward. A beautiful Queen using her charms to gain power and, eventually, lose it tragically. While some of that is true, Cleopatra's image and story have long been the victim of Roman propaganda and rumor.
We don't claim to have all the answers, but hopefully we can set the record straight on a few details of this incredible woman's life.

In 1911, two groups of men decided they would try their luck at being the first to reach the South Pole. Of course, it being 1911, this was a bit of an undertaking that resulted in some very cold boys and quite a bit of drama.
Warning: This might get rough if you're a fan of dogs and/or ponies...or humans, I guess. Mostly the first two.
