“Cry for human bodies, not celestial bodies!” In the second to last episode of ASP Stuff Radio’s season two finale, Alberotle, Steveocrates and Paulato break down (not during) the hyped up 2017 solar eclipse that occurred on Monday, August 21st.  In particular they expound their insightful and somewhat bleak views on why so many people were verklempt while protectively gazing at the total eclipse of the central celestial body of ‘our’ solar system.   Furthermore, Alberotle reveals (although in crude terms) that many Native Americans consider an eclipse a bad omen, and required to observe this sacred day by remaining indoors and refraining from their daily activities.

Paulato’s recent bout of food poisoning inspires the second topic of discussion: what is it, and what should you do to cope with and mitigate the negative effects from ingesting toxins in food?  Are there any natural home remedies to soothe your damaged gut?

Finally, in light of Hurricane Harvey ASP thoughtfully consider what they would do if they were faced with the choice of either staying at their house and riding out the severe and catastrophic storm, or evacuating.  What would you do? Download and enjoy episode #47!
