  • The Finale - John Hunter, the Founder of Scientific Surgery

    The Finale - John Hunter, the Founder of Scientific Surgery
    Nov 6 2024

    This is the final episode for the Poor Historians Podcast. It's been a wonderful ride and we're happy to end on what we think is a high note, talking about the topic that interested Dr. Max in starting a show about medical history in the first place.

    The chief source for this episode is "The Knife Man" a book by Wendy Moore talking about the life, times, and accomplishments of the Scottish Surgeon, John Hunter. You may not know it, but so many advances in medicine (and past episodes of our show) owe him a debt of thanks.

    We thank everyone for listening and supporting our show and for sending us all the wonderful messages over the years.

    Check out Wendy Moore's amazing book, HERE.

    With much love from Dr. Max, Dr. Aaron, Dr. Mike, and Alba.

    The Chicago Tylenol Murders and Halloween Sadism
    Oct 24 2024

    If you've ever wondered why your over-the-counter pill bottles have that annoying little foil under the cap, you'll be happy to know it's there for good reason. It all stems from this true-crime meets toxicology story. We'll lay it all out here in this episode.

  • Comstock Laws and Women's Health in the Gilded Age with Special Guest, Alicia Gutierrez-Romine, PhD

    Comstock Laws and Women's Health in the Gilded Age with Special Guest, Alicia Gutierrez-Romine, PhD
    Oct 10 2024

    We welcome our special guest historian to discuss an overview of issues affecting medical history and it's approaches to women's health during the late 19th century into the early 20th. We'll talk about Anthony Comstock and his silly morality-influenced laws, discuss early forms of contraception, and will examine all of this amidst the cultural milieu of the era.

    We'll go out on a limb and say the doctors of this age were a bit behind the times and we're happy to laugh at their expense.
