Summary

We've all heard about the oath new doctors have to take before they get their first scalpel and weird head mirror thing. But has it always been the same? Did Hippocrates really make it up? Is "First, do no harm" part of it? We'll answer all that and more on this week's Sawbones. Music: "Medicines" by The Taxpayers

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

0:07.0

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

0:14.0

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

0:22.0

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 hot like a rum.

Hello, everybody and welcome to Saubones, a medical tour of Miss Guy to Medicine. I'm your co-host Justin McAroy.

And I'm Sydney McAroy.

There's been a switch on the front of my microphone. It says pad and one setting is negative 10 dB, one is zero.

For the past three weeks, my microphone has been too quiet and I have had no idea why. And in the seconds preceding this, I just found that little switch and everything and all is fixed.

You got an interesting email. It's like, I'm like, one to. Saubones, the show did. So you got it as well. It's just I'm the one who checks them.
