Hello! We're Now It's Ruined, a podcast that reveals questionable facts about everyday objects, activities, and people in the hopes that you will never be able to truly enjoy them again. Hosts Kate Bridal and Larkin Harrington answer seemingly innocent questions like "Where did hammocks come from?" and "Who invented the chainsaw?" with distinctly unpleasant facts. We talk about the dark side of things we tend to take for granted and highlight the people who are often left out of the narrative. While we are a comedy podcast, we discuss some very disturbing and violent things, so listener discretion is always advised.© 2025 Now It's Ruined 世界 社会科学

    Episode 41. The Christmas Rebellion (Bonus Patreon Upcycle)
    2026/09/23
    Our last upcycle before we come back in October is all about The Christmas Rebellion, aka the Baptist War, which started in Jamaica on Christmas Day in 1831.Led by enslaved Baptist deacon Samuel Sharpe, The Christmas Rebellion was one of the largest slave rebellions in history, with 60,000 of the island’s 300,000 enslaved people taking part. It contributed heavily to England’s abolition of slavery, a practice that claimed the lives of millions of Africans.This episode has a bit of information overlap with our full-length hammocks episode (which we put out a few months after recording this), but it is its own unique story!Referenceshttps://jis.gov.jm/information/jamaican-history/ https://www.britannica.com/biography/Christopher-Columbus/The-first-voyage https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/who-were-taino-original-inhabitants-columbus-island-73824867/ https://www.embassyofjamaica.org/about_jamaica/history.htm https://nlj.gov.jm/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/CHRONOLOGY_OF_THE_SLAVE_TRADE.pdf https://www.njstatelib.org/research_library/new_jersey_resources/highlights/african_american_history_curriculum/unit_2_rise_of_afro-americans/ https://www.ebsco.com/research-starters/history/transatlantic-slave-trade-begins https://www.discoveringbristol.org.uk/slavery/against-slavery/black-resistance-against-slavery/the-maroons-of-jamaica/ https://www.britannica.com/topic/buccaneer https://www.history.ox.ac.uk/article/how-england-became-the-sweetshop-of-europe https://runaways.gla.ac.uk/minecraft/index.php/slaves-work-on-sugar-plantations/ https://www.thegazette.co.uk/all-notices/content/103864 https://baptist.ca/about-cboq/what-do-baptists-believe/ https://aaregistry.org/story/samuel-sharpe-abolitionist-born/ https://blackpast.org/global-african-history/baptist-war-1831-1832/ https://wiredja.com/index.php/categories/newsberg/culture/that-kensington-fire-which-started-the-sam-sharpe-war-of-1831-32 If you know something we can ruin, send the topic and a brief hint at how it's ruined to nowitsruined@gmail.com.

    Episode 41. War of the Flies (Bonus Patreon Upcycle)
    2026/09/09
    Our September upcycle kicks off with the tale of a dramatic ongoing battle to prevent the resurgence of a particularly nasty pest in the U.S.If you’d really like to challenge yourself, we recommend putting this on while you cook. If you’re still able to eat after listening to Larkin describe festering wounds, flesh-eating maggots, and blood mixed with rotting meat and eggs, congratulations! You’re as voracious as cochliomya hominivorax, aka the Screw Worm. Since recording this episode, there have been new sightings of screw worms in the United States, specifically in Texas.

    Episode 40. The Disappearance of Jacob Wetterling (Bonus Patreon Upcycle)
    2026/08/26
    On October 22, 1989, a stranger snatched Jacob Wetterling off the street near his home in St. Joseph, Minnesota. For nearly 27 years, nobody knew what happened to him. The story takes one infuriating turn after another as police missteps kept Jacob from being found for over two decades. Eventually, the full, tragic story was revealed. Kate grew up less than an hour from St. Joseph and has been haunted by Jacob’s case for as long as she can remember. When she realized the anniversary of his disappearance coincided with a bonus episode due date, she decided to dedicate that episode to him.
