This week Tina is joined by Michael with the Real Talk School of Nursing podcast. Together they tell the story of the Heaven's Gate cult. This group was started by a nurse and her boyfriend in the 1970s. The group made headlines in the 1990s after they became convinced that an alien space ship was coming to Earth traveling behind the comet Hale-Bopp. The details of this story are so unbelievable it seems like science fiction. They close the show with the inspirational story of the first male military nurse who also happened to be Black.
