About this listen

Today’s episode is part of my Top 10 Inventions of All Time series — and I’ve got a wild one for you.

This invention doesn’t fly. It doesn’t light up. It doesn’t connect to the internet. But if you’ve ever had your wisdom teeth yanked out, your appendix removed, or even a baby delivered — you owe a big thank-you to this miracle.

I’m talking about anesthesia — the invention that lets you sleep through surgery and wake up feeling (relatively) okay, instead of screaming into a leather strap like it’s 1723.

Episode seven of my personal top ten inventions of all time series!
