WE ARE BACK! We decided to focus on a topic from America today. Mental health has come a long way (thank God). America once decided the best way to handle big feelings was… well… sticking a metal rod into someone’s brain. In this episode, we dive into the wild, chaotic, absolutely unhinged era of American lobotomies- complete with door-to-door brain surgeons, ice-pick innovations no one asked for, and the medical trends that aged like sour milk. Come for the history; stay for the “WHY WOULD ANYONE THINK THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA?” energy.
