Saubones 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, Tommy 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 Saubones, Marital Turf, Miscited Medicine. I'm your co-host Justin McElroy.

And I'm Sydney McElroy.

And I am so excited to be here with you, Sid, recording another great episode of Saubones.

Me too, Justin. I'm excited to do this. I'm going to kind of launch into our episode a little quicker than we normally do.

Because it's an important one. And there's a lot. It was one of those moments where I finished preparing the whole episode and then thought this should have been like a series.

But I think we'll look at this as like a general overview of the topic and there are lots of other little alleys that I found that we can go down to explore more in depth in the future.

But this is sort of a general overview of something that is really relevant to me and to a lot of our community here where we live.

But I am certain there are other places all over the country who are dealing with this same struggle right now that we are not alone in that.

But I know it's very relevant right here.

Before you get into it, can you talk for just a moment? It's about why it's sort of like your connection to it?

Well, first of all, what we're going to be talking about is harm reduction.

And before I get into the episode, can I give a huge thank you to Luca who helped a listener who reached out to say that if I was going to do an episode like this, he is an expert and has a wealth of knowledge on the subject and would be happy to provide any support I needed and was just instrumental in the creation of this episode.

So thank you, thank you, thank you, Luca. This episode of sobans would not exist without you.

Thanks, Luca.

So thank you.

Harm reduction is, first of all, do you know what it is, Justin?
