Frankenstein

You ever hear the one about the two headed dog that walked out of a soviet research center? Well, you’re about to! This week on Health Wanted we’re rounding out our Halloween series by talking about the closest we’ve come to a real-life Dr. Frankenstein through the weird history of transplants past, present, and future, and talking to author Mary Roach about her new book exploring all the modern ways we can replace our parts. Plus—are Kegels actually good for you? How many beverages is too many for a morning routine? Should we be sanitizing our sponges? And what’s going on with the fertility rate? For a full rundown on all the information shared in today's episode, take a look at the show notes. Have a question for Laurel? Send it to [email protected] or leave a voicemail at 404-888-3630!
