Yeah, as in the cereal. But this is not an episode about cereal.This week, Cassidy tells you the unbelievably fantastical story of John Harvey and William Kellogg. Honestly, you should go in blind. But if you want a sneak peak, keep reading. This episode touches on everything from germ theory to 7th Day Adventism to "masturbation cures" to *eventually* cereal. Tune in to learn about the birth of modern medicine, along with the strange treatments that were prescribed to patients of Dr. John Harvey Kellogg in his luxury medical spa in Battle Creek, Michigan. And stick around to hear the fate of John Harvey's younger brother, William, who spent the majority of his life in the shadow of his eccentric brother.Check out clips from the show on Instagram, @michigistoryFor any story ideas, advertisement inquiries, questions (or compliments), email [email protected] you survived this episode, please prove it by leaving a 5-star review.And if you hated this episode, the best way to let us know is by leaving us a 5-star review (cuz on a scale from 1-5, 5 is the worst)
