Take an inside trip into the mental asylum with Nellie Bly! Shelby tells us about an incredible woman that's not talked about quite enough. Since we're talking about some stuff in mental hospitals, learn a little bit extra with Courtney popping in with a "short" version of Rosemary Kennedy's lobotomy! Nellie Bly did a lot of things in her life, especially as a woman. She went undercover to investigate and report on Blackwell's Mental Asylum and found out that it was torturous.
