Poisonboy Podcast

Poison Boy back from battling Hurricane Matthew to a standstill - worst casualty was an umbrella that literally exploded when I opened it in the middle of 75 mph winds. This episode is all about snakes - copperheads to be specific. Seen several patients in the past several weeks that have unluckily wound up on the receiving end of a ticked off pit viper. We talk about the snakes themselves, as well as the controversies surrounding treatment of copperhead envenomation. Then we discuss THE SNAKE CHARMER - a book guaranteed to keep you up all night. The we round out the podcast with a discussion of the events of the first week of October going back to prehistoric times when there were lots of snakes, most probably a whole lot scarier than the ones we have now. What are you waiting for? Let's go!
