Nuts! is a true story of desperation, scams, and goat testicles. Director Penny Lane joins RadioWest on Wednesday, July 5th, 2017, to talk about John Romulus Brinkley, a man who claimed to have a cure for impotence and many other ailments in 1920s Kansas. He took to newfangled radio to tout his unorthodox treatments, but soon found his nemesis in one Morris Fishbein, editor of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
