EP 40: Good and Bad Nurses (Featuring Special Guests, Emily and Kelley from the Wining About HERstory Podcast)

How have we already made it to the end of Season Four? In this week's Season Four Finale, we are joined by Emily and Kelley, the lovely ladies of the Wining About HERstory podcast! In true Wining About HERstory fashion, they tell the uplifting and motivational story about phenomenal Dorothea Dix, a nurse and all-around advocate that fought for the mentally ill. And then, in true Hashtag History fashion, we follow up their story with the dark and twisted tale of horrific Jane Toppan, the serial killer nurse who would go on to kill dozens of her patients.

As you can tell, this episode is about three times the length of our normal episodes. We just had so much fun together! So cozy on up or go for a nice long car ride while you listen to the story of two different women - both in the medical field - but on very different sides of History.
