76: Santorio Santorio the Weight Watcher

Nathan and Spencer have a little pow-wow about a (supposedly) real human being named Santorio Santorio. First and last name. Would I lie to you?

Cock and Bull is a somewhat-weekly history podcast about unbelievable characters and shockingly true stories, brought to you by Spencer Foust (@BalraagTheOrc), and Nathan (@MarxMadness, a sophisticated text-to-speech program.

Cock and Bull is a labor of love, and has neither sponsors nor a network to monetize it. Donations go towards purchasing episode material like memoirs, letters, and research papers from a time when people thought "some idiot is going to buy this in 2020, and I'm going to make him work for it."
