Self Surgery: Leonid Rogozov Removed His Own Appendix

  • Summary

  • Imagine the moment you're holding a scalpel over your own skin, knowing you need to cut into yourself in order to save your life. Leonid Rogozov was doctor who was a novice at surgery, but found himself needing to do exactly that in order to survive. In this episode, we talk about self-surgery and tell the story of the man who performed his own appendectomy while stranded at an Antarctic Research Station. Then we play the quiz game with Glen Tickle, who just completed a comedy tour of Hungary.
