Healthcare Villains’s Podcast
Every villain has an origin story. Ours is quite simple; health care heroes are over this BS and have been deemed as villains. Join us, JuggerDoc and Poison I.V., in our med room lair to drop all kinds of truth bombs about everything that is fucked up in the health care system whilst sharing some pretty messed up/hilarious stories. We also like all things dark and twisted, so we also do some true crime episodes of villainous healthcare workers. Not a current health care worker/ villain? That’s cool, we always need more henchmen to join our underground legion of disgruntled Nurse Ratchets. So buckle-up Buttercup (no seriously, don’t be an organ donor), its going to be a wild ride.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Healthcare Villains. We all know our breaking point, yes? Or, at the very least, we know that one little thing that will set us off; a button one should not push. This episode, Poison I.V. shares some of her worst "poppin' off moments. Not the proudest of moments, but maybe these stories will make you feel a little bit better about yourself!

Hello Henchpeople, thank you for coming back for another episode of Healthcare Villains. This week, we revisit an issue we have discussed in past episodes about patient dumping. This time, we will be sharing a listener's story and Poison I.V. will actually go into better detail as to how unbelievably fucked up (and illegal) patient/resident dumping actually is.

Monday May 08, 2023
Hello again Henchpeople, and Happy nurses week! Yes, we are nurses, and we totally forgot we had a whole week dedicated to us. Anyway, this week's episode was inspired by Poison I.V.'s trip to Philadelphia's famous Eastern State Penitentiary. Poison I.V. talks about Eastern State's history and the dark history of another infamous Philly Prison ran by an evil dermatologist. Also, we forgot to site our sources in the show, so we have included them in our description. I mean, we are professionals after all.

Tuesday May 02, 2023
Hello again our faithful Henchpeople. Welcome back to Part 2 of Head Like a Hole. Last week, JuggerDoc started our 2 part story about lobotomies and Dr. Freeman, the total ass that introduced lobotomies in the United States. Now, we continue this saga and show just how Dr. Freeman's ego got a little to big and how "routine" lobotomies got a little outta hand. From traveling in a creep van to bang holes into people's heads, to giving out snacks and smacks. You are not going to want to miss this episode.

Tuesday Apr 11, 2023
Tuesday Apr 11, 2023
Hello Henchpeople and welcome back. Our deepest apologies for missing last week...we actually had to work, you know, to make money, after returning from Vegas. Unfortunately, our stupid jobs took up too much of our time. So, to make up for our trespasses, we have a longer episode this week. This is a true crime episode presented to you by Poison I.V. This true crime story is about Dr. Death; you may or may not of heard of him. So, at the end of the story, we want to hear what you think. Is he a villain, or a good guy?

Tuesday Mar 28, 2023
Welcome back Henchpeople to another week of Healthcare Villains! We took a week off so we can go to Vegas Baby! In this week's episode, we are recording in Vegas and recount some of our shenanigans in good 'ol Sin City. We also talk about how patient's families can kinda be douche canoes. Also, at around 49 minutes our recording equipment craps out, but luckily we were also video recording. So you may hear a change in the audio.

Episode 24: Umm.. thats just ”Juice”
Wednesday Mar 15, 2023
Wednesday Mar 15, 2023
Welcome back Henchpeople! This weeks episode starts off with Poison I.V. discloses her complete disdain for driving and the reasons as to why. After that side tangent, we talk about how people in healthcare pass the buck and totally screw over their patients. You may reconsider going to the hospital after listening to this episode; maybe try your luck like the Oregon Trail game and try to not die from dysentery. Also, we will be in Vegas March 19th, so look for us on the strip! We will be the charismatic ladies in all black :)

Episode 23 Patient Dumping
Tuesday Mar 07, 2023
Tuesday Mar 07, 2023
In this week's episode of Healthcare Villains, we will be talking about dumping the undesirables in ERs. We dont know why people do it, maybe it is a desperate attempt to dissolve the 'problem' of caring for difficult people and they will just *POOF* disappear behind the doors of the hospital...because that's how it works, outta sight, outta mind. We even have some stories of patient snatching...no trigger warning here folks, its not a traumatic patient snatching. Enjoy Henchpeople!

My Friend!!!!
Just two friends/ nurses (okay, one nurse and a doctor nurse) figured we may as well record our hilarious rants of the shenanigans we have encountered over our years working in health care. We call ourselves villains because nurses have quickly lost the title as heroes, so we may as well let our freak flag fly and just really lay it all out. Nurses are not as sweet as many may think.
We talk about everything: crazy patient encounter, people 'falling' onto objects naked, pink purses, nurses going to prison, ghost stories, and...well, you get the idea.
Everyone can listen, you don't have to be in health care, but be warned, we are not here to save anyone's feelings. We swear, we say gross stuff, and we will call it like it is...so if you get triggered easily, maybe this isn't for you (you can still tell us how horrible we are, its just confirmation at this point). If you like what we are putting down, then join us every Tuesday for new episodes. Or, email us at Healthcarevillains@gmail.com
