National Geographic’s “Go to Hell”: Erika Engelhaupt

Do you love a lively, entertaining read that is hellishly clever while it educates you as to the world’s most interesting travel destinations? Are you intrigued by folklore, myths, history and fascinating places? Do you appreciate a good laugh? If so, this show is for you!

Our guest, Erika Engelhaupt, is a science journalist whose expertise lies in all things macabre. Her work in National Geographic, Scientific American, and elsewhere has revealed the spooky science behind many taboo topics, including rotting corpses, bodily fluids, and other things that, in her words, “make her popular at dinner parties.” And, to underscore this point, her previous book is entitled Gory Details: Adventures from the Dark Side of Science.

We are thrilled to have Erika join us to share all about her brand-new voyage to the dark side. It’s called Go to Hell: A Traveler’s Guide to Earth’s Most Otherworldly Destinations.

This book is both a real romp and a treasure trove of travel information, so you’ll want to make sure you catch this show!
