Ep 72-Guinea-Pigging Geezer: An Unethical U of M Psychiatrist

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2417487/fan_mail/new] A psychiatrist with a résumé full of prestige gets ordered to sit in on a medical ethics class. That single detail sent us down one of the most unsettling Minnesota medical board stories we’ve ever read, and it forced us to ask how clinical trial oversight can fail the very people it’s supposed to protect. This isn’t just a story about one doctor. It’s a story about systems: pharmaceutical company payments that continue after discipline, FDA inspection limits, and the uncomfortable reality that “oversight” often arrives after irreversible harm. We also break up the heaviness with our usual real-life detours and a listener Medical Mishap that proves you should stay suspicious of angry filing cabinets. If you care about medical ethics, patient safety, psychiatric medication, and how clinical research is policed, listen, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

Ep 71-Fentanyl On The Night Shift

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2417487/fan_mail/new] A single syringe can hold a hard truth: in an ICU, the difference between mercy and harm can come down to dose, intent, and whether anyone has the power to stop what’s happening. We start with a stormy night and a very real tornado scare, then step into Mount Carmel West Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, where families keep vigil under fluorescent lights and trust a confident physician to guide them through the worst moment of their lives. If this story challenges you, share it with someone who cares about patient safety and medical ethics, then subscribe, rate, and review so we can keep bringing you cases that make you think.

Ep 70-The Essential Oil Myth Machine: D Gary Young

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2417487/fan_mail/new] A tiny bottle can carry a huge promise, especially when it is wrapped in “natural” language, a charismatic founder story, and a sales network that feels like community.

Gary Young, separating what is documented in reporting, regulatory actions, and court records from the mythology that helped power a billion-dollar wellness brand. If you care about evidence-based medicine, consumer protection, essential oil marketing, and how wellness misinformation spreads, hit play.

Ep 69-Genital Mutilation Disguised as Love Surgery

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2417487/fan_mail/new] A surgeon tells you everything went fine then you spend years in pain, ashamed, and confused because the truth never made it into your chart. We dig into the case of Dr James Burt of Dayton, Ohio, the physician behind “love surgery,” a set of experimental genital procedures he performed on thousands of women, often without informed consent. The details are as horrifying as they are important. We walk through how Burt sold his theory, how he used authority and taboo to isolate patients, and how institutions that should have protected women instead protected themselves. Hospitals restricted liability rather than stopping him, medical culture discouraged doctors from reporting other doctors, and the state medical board dragged its feet until national media made silence impossible. The story raises hard questions about medical ethics, patient safety, hospital credentialing, and what real accountability looks like when harm happens behind operating room doors. If you care about informed consent, medical malpractice, and how trust can be weaponised in healthcare, hit play now.

Ep 68-The Church of Bleach

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2417487/fan_mail/new] A “miracle cure” gets whispered about at an autism conference, and the rabbit hole opens fast. We follow the bizarre rise of Miracle Mineral Solution (MMS), a two-part chemical kit that produces chlorine dioxide, and how it’s been promoted as a treatment for everything from malaria to autism to COVID-19. The shocking part is not just the claim, it’s how normal it can look at first: concerned parents trading tips, meticulous logs, Facebook groups filled with testimonials, and a community that feels supportive and almost scientific on the surface. Subscribe or follow, share this episode with someone who needs a reality check on “miracle cures,” and leave a rating and review. What do you think makes certainty so persuasive when the evidence is thin?
