About this listen
In the fifth episode of our brand-new podcast series, historian and host Rebecca Rideal is joined by Sick to Death’s very own Dean Paton, as well as experts Elise Mitchell, Dr James Brown, Dr Kim Walker, Professor Manuel Barcia Paz and Dr Rohan Deb Roy to investigate how medicine and disease traveled around the globe. Focusing on the transatlantic slave trade and the story of malaria and quinine, we’ll shine a light on medicine during early modern globalization. Today’s objects are tea and coffee.
Written and produced by Rebecca Rideal.
Edited and produced by Peter Curry.
Theme music: “Time” by The Broxton Hundred
The podcast is brought to you by Sick to Death, an exciting new medical museum in the heart of historic Chester.
