This week Deklan tells us about Joshua Blahyi, better known for his nickname, General Butt Naked. As a child he was identified as a future leader. During the Liberian First Civil War he was a military warlord. He believed he and his men were bulletproof because of their special practices they did as a group. This led them to shed their uniforms and be naked.
Jane tells us about Leonard Kille, an engineer, who had several patents to his name. He was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia when he told hospital staff about experiments on his brain. It took years for doctors to learn the truth.
We also enjoy the Butt Naked cocktail.
