We’re closing out our series on horrors in the hospital by discussing doctors who murder, the difficulties in proving whether or not they did it, and, to bring things full circle, how empathy plays into our responses to these crimes.
Highlights:
[0:00] Mark tells CoRri about the deeply unhinged murder of Shad Thyrion by Taylor Schabusiness. Yes, Schabusiness.
[21:40] Mark downs a truly problematic amount of cola, we chat about some videogames, and we tell you about upcoming things, including our appearance on the Laydown Podcast and our new video from Bristol on our YouTube!
[33:00] CoRri deals with her mortality in a way that sounds high but isn’t
[39:40] What we watched! (No One Will Save You, Fatal Pulse, Critters, Cassandro, Friday the 13th (2009), Housebound)
[66:43] We discuss medical professionals that murder, the institutions that let it happen, and what we’ve learned on our empathy journey so far
