Podcast Overview

In bygone times, there were traveling healers called "quack doctors" who would peddle potions and curealls from town to town. Quacks were looked down upon for...well...poisoning lots people with mercury. But also for being empirical above any rational explanations, like humors and blood letting. So when they weren't using mercury, these traveling quacks discovered bottom up health solutions through trial and error. This podcast is about finding health solutions in the strangest places, even if they don't make sense
