  • Modern Comstockery
    2025/04/22

    Zombies are dangerous. I don't mean the ones on The Last of Us or The Walking Dead. Sure, they are scary, but they are fiction. Comstock and his law are very real, and - somehow - that law with the sole purpose of governing the behavior of adults acting on their own and hurting nobody - is still on the books.

    For our final episode of the season we discuss legal scholarship and why it is so critical for the next 3 1/2 years as rights to healthcare and access to safe procedures and prescriptions are being stripped from women at an alarming rate. Listen and find out why we absolutely must Kill the Comstock Zombie or risk a massive list of much bigger problems.

    Thank you for staying with us for season 1! Please spread the word and let others who feel like we do know about this information - especially this last episode - as it's so important for all of us to stay educated while we are being dragged into a new dark age. See you in Season 2 starting in August! Feel free to find us on TikTok between now and then or shoot us an email at HMedPod@gmail.com - especially if you want a sticker!

  • Anthony Comstock: America's Busiest Body?
    2025/04/15

    Anthony Comstock was very invested in policing the activities of others. He was obsessed with it, really. The United States was a wild place around the time of The Civil War and old Tony just wanted to be the best dry goods merchant he could be - after he tried his hardest to single-handedly eradicate "vice" that he saw as the scourge of all humanity.

    Come along this week for part 1 of 2 in our double episode that wraps up season 1. We will tell you all about Comstock, his absolutely bonkers obsession with other people's lives and activities, and begin to discuss why it is critically important this very day that we learn about him, so we don't let people like him do what he did to try to suppress EVERYTHING he thought was amoral - which was a lot.

  • Freud, Princess Bonaparte, and The Big "O"
    2025/04/08

    Napoleon (yeah, that one) had a great grand-niece who was REALLY into the female orgasm. She did a whole lot of research, writing, and even surgery to try to "fix" it. Of course she enlisted the help of Dr Sigmund Freud in her quest, but he couldn't figure out how to fix it either.

    Join us this week as we explore this distant relative of the Emperor and how she managed to care so deeply about such a personal subject, that she was willing to go under the knife so she could experience something that almost no woman does, because men called it "normal".

    Have you had your orgasm today?

  • Sarah Baartman: The "Hottentot" Venus
    2025/04/01

    Sarah was born in Southern Africa and had her life turned completely upside down for the sole reason that she did not look like white, European women. She was very intelligent, speaking several languages. She was also stolen from her home and put on display as if she were no more than a sub-human side show.

    Join us this week to find out what it took for her to be considered so supremely exotic that she had to be taken from her home and put on display for europeans to gawk at - primarily due to a dire lack of understanding, education, and willingness to see other people from other parts of the world as human - just like them. It's not like any episode is particularly light-hearted or "fun", but this one really is a rage-inducer for many reasons. These stories need to be shared and understood if we want history to stop repeating itself, so let's dive in.

  • Cut it Out! How to Deal With a Pesky Clitoris
    2025/03/25

    It's the final episode in Clitoris month and MAN is it a doozy! Men tend to be doozies when it comes to the female body and the clitoris has really stuck in their craw since they decided that it does exist and it's not the Devil's mark on a witch (go back a couple episodes for that).

    This week we tackle all the horrible things that men have done, in the name of medicine, health, and "care" to maim women and misunderstand a very important part of their bodies. We promise, it gets a tiny bit hopeful at the end, so you should stick around until then to hear the "Salad Bowl" theory from Matt's old friend Wayne.

  • The Cult of the Clitoris
    2025/03/18

    There were days in the Western World - not so long ago - that just knowing the word "clitoris" was enough to get you labeled as a criminal. In this episode we talk about some scantily clad dancing, some war, some politicians, and, as usual, rich, white guys who don't know the meaning of much at all.

    Join us to find out if you would have been labeled as a pervert or reprobate by the acceptable society types of the 20th Century or beyond. Would you try to kiss dead lips or perform the dance of Salome? Hmm...would you rub a person? Either way, you may be at risk of being in a cult. Come on in and get hysterical with us to find out whether you're the problem in society, won't you?

  • The Devil's Teat and Aristotle's Masterpiece
    2025/03/11

    Did you know that a woman who is found to have "The Devil's Teat" is known to be a witch? Did you know that Aristotle's Masterpiece was an exceptionally popular book that was just smut for its day and was neither written by Aristotle, nor a masterpiece.

    On this episode - the second of Clit Month - we dive into anatomy, history, and some of the batshit crazy things men have declared about womens' bodies through the years. Strap in, everyone, and don't forget your fly knobs!

  • Lost, Found, Lost, and Found Again: The Clitoris
    2025/03/04

    This pesky little devil has been there since the beginning of humans, but for some reason has been "discovered", lost, found, and so on through history. This is the first episode of Clitoris Month on Hysterical Medicine, where we talk about who thinks they found it, what it was thought to do, and what other mammals have one. Stick around all month long as we deep dive on the "man in the canoe".
