Medicine for the Dead is a podcast that attempts to dissect difficult topics through a lens of empathy and reason, but often devolves into childish name-calling, captivating nonsensical tangents, and liberal use of the F-word.

"To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture." -Thomas Paine
