Ever wonder if hot flashes and mood swings could spark a witch hunt? In our latest Mutation Station podcast, we explore the fascinating (and frankly unfair) link between menopause and witchcraft accusations throughout history.

Discover how aging women became targets in medieval Europe, with symptoms like facial hair, insomnia, and fiery tempers being labeled “proof” of dark powers. We decode Shakespeare’s Macbeth witch brew, revealing how their spooky ingredients might actually make a great herbal remedy for menopause relief.

From the misunderstood “hag” myth to the rise of witchcraft as a modern spiritual practice, this episode is a spellbinding mix of history, myth, and humor.

Tune in for fiery facts, magical myths, and plenty of “bubble, bubble, toil and trouble!” You’ll never look at witches—or hot flashes—the same way again.
