035 – THE ZOMBIE AUTOPSIES
This week on MonsterTalk, we interview Harvard medical doctor Steven Schlozman, author of The Zombie Autopsies and get inside the walking dead to discuss a plausible mechanism for the zombie apocalypse. It took a lot of guts, but in this episode we discuss:
- How did a doctor become
interested in zombies? - What can zombies teach us
about neurology? - Which is scarier:
infection or cannibalism? - Why don’t zombies have sex?
- What’s the best way to slice a brain?
- What do brains taste like?
- Plus much, much more!
