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.

All right,

so on me is about some books.

One, two, one to the three, four. We came across a pharmacy with a window's a window's to see with its windows blasted out. Pushed on through the broken glass and had ourselves

a look around the medicines, the medicines that

E'Sellen Macabre for the mouth.

Oh, we've got for the mouth.

Hello everybody and welcome to Sawbones. A marital tour of misguided medicine.

I'm your co-host Justin McElroy.

And I'm Sidney McElroy.

Now, Sidney, I don't know how you learned my nickname in high school, but here I see it at the top of your research document here and I am

I'm really touched that you would look into my personal life that much

Your nickname in high school was CMOS. Yeah just CMOS but like with a C the letter C and then it's M. O Z is how most people spelled it like what's up C. Mause. What was that for what like how did you that nickname come to be? I didn't

want to ask because my fear was that it was

bullying and I didn't want to ask for specifics so I just accepted CMOS that's me that's

my brand.

It was a short period in high school, mainly in my media studies class.

I was not well liked.

But here we are today.

I mean, if it makes you feel better, well I cannot think of any logical connection that might have to you or your name.
