Benadryl Part 1: The Hatman Cometh

Bennies Part 1! And it's a doozy...

We discuss the shockingly popular trends around so-called recreational Benadryl use, and the digital communities that have emerged to support this largely solitary activity. We follow The Hatman down a dark wooded path filled with creepy crawlers to figure out why he would telepathically misgender people, and to try and find out where we can get a funky hat like his.

*Trigger Warning for discussions of suicide and self-harm.
