Ep 35 LIVE Straw Hat Riots, Fastest Surgeon Ever
Description
We go LIVE at the Cambridge YWCA. You know how nowadays we joke about there being a fashion police? Well back in the 1920s, there wasn’t so much a fashion police as there was a riot over wearing the wrong hat for the season. And it wasn’t a small one either, literally thousands of people were involved. How did this happen? WHY did this happen? For very, very stupid reasons.
Then, have you ever had surgery and been all “UGH, THIS IS TAKING FOREVER”? Well then you should have gone back in time to see Dr. Robert Liston, the fastest hands in surgery of the 1800s. This doc would have you in, out and on your feet in under an hour, and probably wouldn’t cut off the wrong thing. Probably.
Talking points include: Surgical axes, innovative hat-maiming, Riot Moms
