About this listen
Step back in time this Labor Day as we explore one of the most mind-boggling medical tales ever told—the story of Phineas Gage. In 1848, a horrific work accident led a tamping iron through Gage's skull, but what happened next was nothing short of miraculous. Not only did he survive, but his case went on to reshape our understanding of neuroscience and the human brain. Tune in for a riveting journey that delves into 19th-century labor conditions, medical marvels, and the eternal quest to understand what makes us tick. Whether you're a history buff, a psychology enthusiast, or someone intrigued by the complexities of the human mind, this episode will leave you pondering long after you've hit 'stop.'
