But it's not the first time that we've discussed sickness and disease. So here are three older episodes that should pay. pair up nicely with this week's new one. First, episode 86, Under Siege. I have two words for you, typhoid Mary. Everyone

knows them, but few people remember the terrifying true story behind it. Mary's tale is painful, maddening, and thought-provoking. Do check it out. Next, episode 113, word of mouth. There once was a time when the best medicine wasn't laughter

or a spoonful of sugar. No, it was human body parts. Settle in for a disturbing journey, into the world of medicinal cannibalism. And finally, there's episode 186, Invisible Boundaries. Hundreds of years ago, one small English village took measures to protect themselves that had intriguing repercussions.

And even more fascinating, those effects are still being felt and studied today. And there you go. Follow up this week's brand new episode with a trip into the past.
