Sawbones is a show about medical history, and nothing the hosts say should be taken as medical advice or opinion.

It's for fun. Can't you just have fun for an hour and not try to diagnose your mystery boil?

We think you've earned it. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy a moment of distraction from that weird growth.

You're worth it.

Alright, time is about to books. One, two, one, two, three, four.

We came across a pharmacy with a toy and that's lost it out. We were shot through the broken glass and had ourselves a look around.

Hello everybody and welcome to Sawbones, Marital Turf, Miscited Medicine. I'm your co-host Justin McAroy.

And I'm Sydney McAroy.

Welcome to the number one medical podcast on the internet.

You just declared that. I do. I frequently declare that. I don't think you can beat it.

I don't know. I don't know what metrics you're using though. When you see I'm a scientist. I like to back up my statements with evidence.

And this seems like a statement that you are making with no evidence.

I don't think I am. I'm pretty sure I'm right.

That science. I don't think I am. I'm pretty sure I'm right.

Hey, listen, if it weren't for that sentiment, we wouldn't have a podcast. That sentiment has been a very profitable one for us over the years.

Humanity didn't have that gut instinct that gosh darn it. They were right.

Uh-huh. Then we wouldn't have a show today.

You know, I think that's a good. That is a nice transition to our topic this week.

The to go with a gut instinct that something seems right and run with it.

That that's a pretty app description of of what I want to tell you about.

I'm on all the years.

So I, first of all, I want to thank Robert, who sent us an email asking about this topic and in four basically informing me that it existed because I had not heard of this specific sort of medical history moment before I wasn't aware of it.
