*Content Warning* This episode contains graphic descriptions of injuries, abuse, and medical procedures. In this Curiosity Door episode, Amanda teaches
Marina all about the curious case of Phineas Gage and a brief history of the lobotomy in the United States. And of course, it always connects back to Stranger Things. Stay Strange.
Host Note: Howard Dully, one of the youngest recipients of a lobotomy, was mentioned in this episode, but there was some important information missing. I'm happy to say Howard is still alive and well and is actually a New York Times Best Selling author of a memoir about his experience. You can find Howard Dully's memoir, My Lobotomy: a Memoir, here (or at your local bookstore!).
