Dr James Barry was the very first European doctor to perform a caesarean section in which both mother and baby survived, he was a pioneer in preventative medicine, befriended a revolutionary and had a spat with the lady with the lamp herself, Florence Nightingale. Despite such accolades and an exciting life, a secret was discovered upon Barry's death that created a scandal and caused the British military to seal Dr Barry's records for a hundred years.

0:11.0 | Music Hi everybody and welcome to Who Did What Now, the History Podcast. It's Not Your History Class with me your host, Katie Charlwood, History Harlot and Reader of Books. |
0:36.6 | Before I get into any part of this episode, we have to start off with a disclosure. |
0:42.3 | I, as a general role, tend to teach history in the same manner in which I speak in my daily life, |
0:49.5 | which means I use colloquial terms, I use layman's language, and, you know, I often swear like a sailor, |
0:59.5 | so if you aren't keen on, you know, curse words, swearing and the like, this is not the |

2:02.1 | And now we're moving on to, you know, hopefully I can get some really hopeful pieces of history |
2:08.2 | because it is Pride Month and I really want to share stories of like amazing people and just |
