About this episode

This episode discusses a bizarre medical emergency involving a live World War I artillery shell.

⚠️ Explicit / Not Safe for Work ⚠️ This Five Minute Friday is a public service announcement disguised as a podcast episode. We’re talking about a real news story involving a live World War I artillery shell, an adult medical emergency, and a French hospital that absolutely did not sign up for this. The content is crude, ridiculous, and firmly not safe for work. Do not listen at work. Do not listen around kids. Do not listen if you’re eating. You’ve been warned.
