The Consulting Toxicologist – Details, episodes & analysis

Every poison tells a story. Every mystery begins with a molecule.

The Consulting Toxicologist is an immersive fiction podcast that blends the suspense of classic detective stories with the real science of medical toxicology.

Created and written by emergency physician and board-certified medical toxicologist Dr. Adam Blumenberg, each story follows Dr. Watson and Sherlock Holmes through the streets, hospitals, and hidden corners of New York City as they unravel impossible poisonings, hidden motives, and crimes where chemistry is the key to the truth. The characters and mysteries are fictional—but the toxicology is real.

If you love intelligent mysteries, sharp deduction, and science that matters, The Consulting Toxicologist invites you to step into a world where every symptom is a clue, every toxin leaves a signature, and the smallest molecule can change the course of a life.
