About this listen
We've all heard of bloodletting and leeches, but what of tobacco smoke enemas, crow vomit ointments, and magic pigeons? In this surprisingly educational excursion, we explore three curious remedies from the annals of 19th and 18th century medicine. This topic was voted for by patrons of the show!
Research for this episode would not have been possible without "The Mystery of the Exploding Teeth & Other Curiosities from the History of Medicine". An excellent read for any history buffs.
Music featured in this episode:
Luella Gren, Intro: "Why Is She Crying?"
Dated: "Autopsy Romance" and "Midnight Visitors"
