We hope everyone is having a wonderful week...now let's ruin it!! On this week's episode we are covering the Radium Girls, a deadly phenomenon of the early to mid-20th century. In this first part of a two part series, we will talk about the effects of radium on the body, the companies who tried to suppress the dangers, and a taste of what horrors awaited the young women employed by these radium dial companies. Get ready to throw things on this episode of Under the Pendulum Podcast.
