The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

And you might say, well, they're still doing drugs, but who cares?

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

They're doing drugs that are way less likely to kill them and perhaps allow them to function better.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

I mean, this is the anecdotal case of the guy at the gym.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

Like I see this guy at the gym like five days a week.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

You know, he's up and he's around, he's doing stuff.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

He's not sitting in a dark room staring at his shoes while he drools.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

To me, that's a win for these people.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

I think really we just need more and better research into kratom, and that's going to be hard coming because the CDC and the FDA are both pretty hostile towards it.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

So in 2012, we first see the DEA list kratom as a drug of concern, which doesn't actually really mean anything specific.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

There's kind of a, I don't know if it's a spike, but there's a rising tide of

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

poison control center calls about kratom but given the number of overdoses we have even with multiple drug use i mean i've seen a video of a guy calling a poison control center because he thinks he's overdosing on weed so somebody calling a poison control center doesn't really mean much of anything i mean i called a poison control center once because i accidentally made toxic chlorine gas okay there's a story there i would like to hear it

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

So I lived off grid for several years and I had a composting toilet for part of that time.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

And basically the way a composting toilet is set up is, you know, there's a big vat for number two and there's a little jug for number one.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

And they're all set up in a toilet like enclosure, but everything's separate.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

And the number one jug gets kind of crusty.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

So pro tip, don't clean that out with bleach because as it turns out, those are ammonia crystals and it will make, I guess it's not actually mustard gas, though.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

King of the Hill lied to me about this because King of the Hill told me this was mustard gas and apparently it's not.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

But it's toxic chlorine gas, which is, you know, not really much better.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1257: Kratom | Skeptical Sunday

So anyway, the reason I bring this up is I made this toxic gas, which is banned in warfare.
