About this listen
Ever popped something out of your tonsil and immediately regretted every life choice that led to that moment? Yeah… same.
This week, Teresa dives into the nasty little mystery of tonsil stones—what they are, why they form, and most importantly… why they smell like something crawled in your mouth and died. From bacteria and biofilm to literal “rotting corpse” compounds, we break down the science behind one of the grossest things your body casually does.
Plus: who’s most likely to get them, when they become a problem, and how to evict these tiny stink bombs for good.
You’re welcome. And also… sorry.
