Episode 44 - From Within, Spontaneous Human Combustion

<p>For well over a century, some have made claims that a person can suddenly, and without explanation explode into a ball of fire.  The phenomenon of spontaneous human combustion or SHC has been talked about in countless books and television shows concerning unexplained mysteries.  I remember as a kid, I read stories about SHC in what my grandma called her newspapers which were the National Enquirer, and The World News.  I found the concept of SHC hard to believe even at this age.  There are three things needed to make a fire…oxygen, fuel, and an ignition source.  In the stories I read, they had two out of the three - but no ignition source.  Then how can this happen?  Is it even possible, or just another tale?  My child brain couldn’t help but wonder…could this happen to me?</p> <p> </p> <p>Welcome to Episode 44…From Within, Spontaneous Human Combustion.</p> <p> We got merch!
