We Ignored the Doctor—and Our Son Got Better  
Podcast: The Really Very Crunchy Podcast

Description: When their son suddenly developed a mysterious rash, Emily and Jason Morrow made a rare trip to the doctor—only to be handed a prescription for antibiotics after a 30-second glance. They waited it out instead, and the rash disappeared after some home remedies created by Emily. In this episode, they question why antibiotics are so overprescribed, and why the modern medical system seems to skip holistic approaches in favor of quick fixes. It's a hilarious, slightly chaotic conversation about trusting your gut (literally and figuratively), unnecessary medication, and whether Jason now fears pharmacists more than doctors. If you’ve ever wondered if that prescription was really necessary, this one’s for you.
