    Just a side note: Antidotes are sometimes (not often) also poisonous if taken without the poison. That means if you are not sure if you have been poisoned by this exact poison and still take it, you are risking worsening your case. That's why medical staff have to be really sure about the substance people get poisend with before giving any antidotes

    ⁠@@bfdidc6604 i agree! if he was worried about it to the extent of carrying a dozen doses of the antidote, why didn’t he just assume that was what it was? my ideas are that maybe he was just in so much shock he couldn’t really connect those dots or maybe he had been carrying it for so long with no concerning events that he kind of forgot he had it or that he knew of it but hadn’t done enough research on the symptoms or the drug itself meaning that he wouldn’t think it was that as ppl applied it with their bare hands. likely could be a mix of them all too. i don’t know what he’s done in his life & if he’s as bad as his brother or father so maybe i shouldn’t be a bit sympathetic but having to live in fear of your brother murdering you & dying in a way you had prepared to prevent by carrying the antidote is just depressing and sad. i feel horribly for all the family of them that aren’t dictators as well as all the victims of their dictatorship - it really puts things in perspective as i’m a middle class US citizen

    For real that is what shocked me the most I think. They played their roles so incredibly well that even when one of them somewhat exposed their identity as being a spy by going to that restaurant spies are known to frequent, she still did not think he was a spy. North Korea seems like such a chaotic disorganized country but I guess somehow they know how to train their spies.

Because it was such an issue back then where lot of people in Indonesia, who grew up relatively poor like Siti, that went to countries like Malaysia, Thailand, etc in hopes to find better opportunity/pays but ended up being tricked by their 'agents', abused by their 'employer', or even trafficked. It's not that far of a fetch to think that they were tricked like this. The uproar of Indonesian people to help Siti really helped to make the president to do his best to get Siti home.

Had no idea these girls were tricked into doing these 'pranks' before performing the last one. Thanks for covering this even further including the lives of the innocent women used as scapegoats to kill someone. My heart breaks for them since they went through such tribulations. I'm so relieved they were finally released and hoping their lives and family's to get better.

    @@astro.buzzed the origins of the butterfly effect could be credited to a short story called A Sound of Thunder (1952) which is about a future where time travel has become a bit of a hip new thing within tourism. We follow a man who goes on a guided tour with a group of other people back to the jurassic age to hunt dinosaurs. It is okay to kill them, because the dinosaurs die anyway, but you must retrieve any and all bullets and you're only allowed to move on a levitating path as to not disturb the environment because any disturbance could affect the future. Our main guy ends up breaking the rules by stepping off the levitating path and running into the forest when he fails to kill a t-rex. Blah blah blah him and the other tourists get back to the time machine and back in the future, everything is fucking wrong. The wrong president is in power, the English language is all fucked and so on. Main guy checks the mud on his boots and discovers a single dead butterfly stuck on his boot. What ever destiny that butterfly was supposed to have in order to secure the chain of events that gave main guy the future he came from, has now been altered because he accidentally killed it by stepping off the levitating path. There's also the more well-known metaphor of a butterfly flapping its wings on one side of the planet could cause hurricanes on the other side of the planet, but I always thought that metaphor was stupid and prefer A Sound of Thunder better. It also predates the flapping of the wings metaphor.

    For everyone that is like "omg why didnt he use the antidote" let me share a few things about this "antidote". For starters, the toxin in question is known as an irreversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. Acetylcholinesterase job is to break down acetylcholine. A common neurotransmitter (signaling chemical) in your body that mainly regulated the "rest and digest" part of your nervous system. So when you get a toxin like VX , its going to stop the breakdown of Acetylcholine leading to increased levels in the body causing excess "rest and digest" mode. This will lead to symptoms like low heart rate, shortness of breath, too much salivation, and your nervous system getting really excited which can cause stuff like confusion , seizure, becoming psychotic. Now. This man would not be able to 100% know for himself, even if he was instructed on what symptoms to lookout for, on whether or not he was being poisoned with this particular toxin. But lets say he took the chance and gave himself the antidote (atropine). For one. Thats not even the full antidote. He still needs the second part of the antidote pralidoxime as atropine has its limitations. Secondly, what IF he gave himself the Atropine and he didnt actually have this particular toxicity? He just gave himself the atropine and that comes with its own set of side effects. It would potentially send his body in rapid "flight or fight" response and spike up his heart rate and shortness of breath and confusion. He could even die if the dose is high enough. So yah. Just wanted to provide a little insight on the mechanics of this drug. Also, fun fact for you all. There is a less potent toxin of the same mechanism that farmers get exposed to and present similarly to this man. Same treatment for them too. Atropine!

I was so scared for them, and I was so relieved when they were finally freed. Can you imagine? The whole scenario is just completely unbelievable. I feel just terrible for the man who died, too. To think that his salvation was in his backpack. I have to think he just didn't realize what was happening to him. I think that happens to a lot of people. How often have you heard of someone having the symptoms of a heart attack and they still don't realize that's what's happening to them, despite years of very specific warnings? He probably didn't realize he'd been poisoned with a nerve agent, or thought he'd have more time.

It was a total coincidence that both girls "pranked" him at the same time in the same airport???😂😂🤣🤣he knew he was a marked man the moment he left north Korea!! that's why he carried the antidote with him everywhere he went,,, it's just confusing that he didn't realise what was going on as soon as he started to feel unwell,,,,,I suppose the moral of this twisted tale is if you're from a , family and society like that your going to live a lot longer if you man up and do the dirty work first before your ambitious family members get ideas for self improvement and climbing the corporate ladder!!!!

    I feel bad for both of them, but especially Doan. They're not just framing her, it seems like this man is playing with her emotions as well and obviously, they wouldn't have minded if she died (I mean, there was a chance for both of them to die by the end of it, but she could've died on the spot. I wonder how they picked which girl to go first and which to be second) And then, they set her up and got her back on the crime scene? This man is truly heartless.

    stephanie's videos have something so special about them. she's always super respectful & still makes what she's talking about interesting. her voice also makes me feel super calm like she sounds so calming.

    I've seen you on fb before and I thought your stories were really interesting. I love the fact that you get really into it with your stories and is easy to get sucked in.

    lol maybe a little too easy 😂 I watch so many of her videos everyday. She’s an amazing storyteller.

    You are the most engaging and articulate storyteller I've come across in a long time, I sometimes struggle to stay focused on podcasts but I'm able to listen to your every word and my mind barely wanders. Seriously skilled at your craft
