About this listen

Welcome to Victorian London, where the Thames is serving up “Monster Soup,” disease spreads faster than bad TikTok trends, and everyone thinks sickness comes from vibes. It’s 1854, and cholera is tearing through Soho, leaving death and fear in its wake.

In this episode of Bygone Echoes, Dr. John Snow (the one who knows something, not nothing) and Reverend Henry Whitehead team up to take down the true villain: a killer water pump. Armed with data, determination, and a hauntingly accurate Ghost Map, they didn’t just stop the outbreak—they changed the course of public health forever. This is a story of bad science, worse sanitation, and two unlikely heroes who proved that even in the messiest of times, progress is possible.
