Ep 253: Don't trust anyone - Dr. Christopher Duntsch

I learned in the process of researching my topic that apparently there was, like, a peacock show about this topic that Alec Baldwin was in, like, in 2022 or 2023 or something.

So y'all actually might be familiar with this.

I didn't know it existed.

I listened to this random podcast by Wondery, and they brought up this topic.

I was like, this can't be real.

This can't be real.

Like, I was like... you know what it's like every now and then when you find a topic and you're like i have to get to the bottom of this like this is so what have

we done what is going on yeah

what what hell have we wrought on ourselves um so that's the flavor of this i

can't think of what it would be i feel like i i don't i don't know i definitely didn't watch that show because it doesn't come it doesn't

Yeah, so I'm going to be covering a doctor and a surgeon.

He's a whatever.

He has a unique distinction of being the first physician in U.S. history to be convicted of aggravated assault for actions he took while performing surgery on somebody.

Was it the spinal surgeon guy? You do know it.

I do.

I listened to The Doctor Death about him, but tell me more because it's so good and so

crazy.

That was what I listened to.

Yeah.

I should have paid for...

So here's the thing.

You only get one... episode when you find that podcast the dr death one and you gotta pay to get access to the rest of them and i haven't paid i will because i think the topic's worth actually going into because they're gonna do it a lot more justice than i will because they're gonna interview people and stuff like that um but if you don't want to pay for it uh listen to this because i'm gonna cover it soup to nuts

i can't wait to talk about it because it's wild

yeah it's incredible i i re-read through everything here multiple times and also it's really fun because you're like how how did this like how is this possible like all that stuff so it's it's a lot to get into

it's also like a accountability like you trust people like doctors and priests and you know they don't get fired the way they should be they get moved around
