 🐍 SNAKES, FEAR & THE TRUTH BEHIND THE MYTHS

What happens when your paramedic has a second life as a snake catcher and self-confessed toxinology nerd?

In this episode of PODExMedicine, Sunny and Evie chat with Western Australian paramedic Matt, who spends his time between treating patients and getting up close and personal with some of Australia’s most misunderstood creatures.

Matt takes us beyond the fear and fascination surrounding snakes, breaking down some of the myths, misconceptions and downright bush legends that have been passed around for generations.

This is a conversation about snakes, venom, human fear and the fascinating science of toxinology — and it might just change the way you look at these incredible animals.

Because sometimes the things we fear most are the things we understand the least. 🐍
