Named 2025 Ambies© Podcast of the Year, Hysterical investigates a mysterious illness that spreads among a group of high school girls in upstate New York. What is causing their sudden, often violent symptoms? Is there something in the water or inside the school? Or is it “all in their head?” The series examines the outbreak in LeRoy, NY, believed by some to be the most severe case of mass hysteria since the Salem Witch Trials. In his search for answers, Dan Taberski (9/12, Missing Richard Simmons, Running from Cops) explores other seemingly inexplicable events of the last few years – CIA officers being crippled with nausea and vertigo; cops OD'ing from exposure to fentanyl – and discovers they’re far more connected than we realize. From Wondery and Pineapple Street Studios, this 7-part series forces us to grapple with the mysteries of our own minds, and reckon with a contagion that we thought was long dead, but may be the defining disorder of our time. Binge all episodes of Hysterical exclusively and ad-free, right now on Wondery+. Start your free trial in the Wondery App, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or by visiting wondery.com/links/hysterical/ now.

Interesting and Bingable
10 mars
This was an interesting podcast that I listened to in a day. The topic was interesting but I do wish there had been a few more psychologists involved in discussing the topic addressed in this podcast. I think the last episode was my favorite not just because of the nuanced conclusion but the story about the orcas.

Very interesting podcast! I really enjoyed the different view points and the hosts random pops of humor.
Scientifically neat!

Very comprehensive, love how they took a very holistic and detailed view on this event and on many other (potentially similar, potentially relevant) curiosities in human health history. A fairly unbiased perspective on a truly mind-boggling case. As a pharmacy student, this gave me a greater feel on applicable knowledge and compassion for patients that may be facing unknown/scary/confusing conditions. very intriguing, especially if you are interested in mental health and psychology!
