Ever wondered how a superhero movie soundtrack could compete with the likes of "Dazed and Confused"? Find out as we kick back and chat about the new Deadpool and Wolverine flick, and its awesome soundtrack. Plus, we share some laugh-out-loud moments as we try (and sometimes fail) to open cans of some of our favorite beers, including Sierra Nevada's Cool Little Thing IPA and Pet Skull Brewing's Gumskull Sea Salt and Lime Lager. If you're a beer aficionado, you'll definitely appreciate our brewery tales and flavor discoveries.
But the mood shifts as we dive into the haunting history of the Radium Girls, young women who suffered tragic consequences due to radium exposure. We discuss everything from the misleading assurances they received from their employers to the devastating health impacts they faced. This chapter paints a vivid and heartbreaking picture of industrial negligence and the brave women who fought for justice despite overwhelming odds.
We'll take you through the harrowing legal battles these women endured, the systemic failures that allowed such tragedies, and the eventual closure of the United States Radium Corporation. But don't worry, we lighten things up with some amusing stories about Marie and Pierre Curie, and even throw in a fun idea involving glow sticks. This episode promises a rollercoaster of emotions, blending lighthearted moments with a sobering look at a dark chapter in industrial history. Tune in for a captivating blend of humor, tragedy, and resilience.
