We will also have an event-exclusive poster, designed by @breebird33, available for purchase on the event page! All proceeds from the poster (and the Candlenights ornament, also designed by Bree) will go to Harmony House.
Illustration of a candle in armor, holding a staff and a lantern, leading the McElroy brothers down a stone staircase. Griffin is behind the candle, holding a halberd. Travis is next in line, holding a mace. Justin is last, with a broadsword over his shoulder. Around them is a snowy landscape and pine trees. Above them is a banner that says, “Joyous Candlenights 2022”. In the bottom left corner is a scroll that says, “Presented by The McElroy Family Benefitting Harmony House”.

Hey y’all, we’re aware that there are political ads being served on some of our shows right now. These are not at all ads that we’ve approved or endorse in any way, they are the result of an error with our hosting platform and @MaxFunHQ is working to get the issue fixed ASAP.

Why not just connect the spiritual and scientific world? That’s the question anthroposophy asks, teaching a philosophical approach to medicine. This week on #Sawbones, we talk about the history of this movement and also try to explain what exactly it is. themcelroy.family/e/23186267

There are many people who have been recurring characters on #Sawbones. Pliny the Elder. Charlie. But few so notorious as Dr. Mehmet Oz, now running for the U.S. Senate. This week, we examine his history of questionable medical advice. themcelroy.family/e/23162553

Is schizophrenia the same as having a dissociative identity? Or anti-social disorder? Or being a murderer? No. All of these are wrong. This week on #Sawbones, Dr. Sydnee breaks down one of the most misunderstood and maligned mental illnesses. themcelroy.family/e/23150236

From our earliest days of life E. coli is within us, living in harmony with the rest of our colonic flora. This week on #Sawbones we discuss its ability to really mess all that up through contaminated romaine and undercooked cheeseburgers. themcelroy.family/e/23125418

This week on #Sawbones, we discuss the Brompton Cocktail, which was mostly cocaine and morphine. Though used for a long time for pain relief, the cocktail proved to have its problems – but maybe not for the reason you would think. themcelroy.family/e/23041875
