Episode notes
Wow, this Kickapoo Joy Juice is REFRESHING. Oh, sorry listener, didn’t see you there. Ever wondered how, exactly, Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Root and Randy’s Dan’s Pick-Me-Up Poultice help you to shake that rundown feeling? Did you guess cocaine? Something worse? No matter what you suspect, you’re probably right. This week, Dr. Sydnee and Justin explore the history of patent medicines and let you know which ones are still on the market.
