376— DOCTALES WITH COCKTAILS: The Bizarre Medical History of Pregnancy Tests
We went from contracts to conspiracies, frogs to forgiveness, Cheerios to chemistry—and yes, Mermaid Vodka fueled the ride. This week’s Doctales with Cocktails dives into physician employment traps, hormone-laced amphibians, and the cereal ingredient nobody's talking about.

Show Notes
May and Tim unravel the history of pregnancy tests—from Egyptian barley to injecting frogs with urine (yes, really). They break down why most physician contracts are stacked against you and how Resolve can help you negotiate smarter. Plus, they rant about the latest “dumbest medical study ever,” expose pesticide problems in your pantry, and dive deep into the tension between justice and forgiveness. And of course, it’s all served with Mermaid Vodka, sarcasm, and a splash of sanity. If you’ve ever wondered how Cheerios might be poisoning you—or just want a laugh about the rabbit that actually died—this one’s for you.
