Join Alice and Winkie as they discuss Mental Health month by examining some pretty sad treatments for patients in the 19th and 20th centuries. They cover Nellie Bly, the brave young woman who admitted herself to the Women's Lunatic Asylum in New York to uncover the dirty details of what was going on there. They also talk about the tragic life of Rosemary Kennedy whose father arranged for her to have a lobotomy* to save the family's political careers. Alice also offers some resources for anyone looking for mental health help.

* In the episode I said her lobotomy was hidden until the 1980s. It was actually made public in the 1960s.

It's Missouri history time again! This time we're taking you solely back to 1904. What unbelievable things happened in 1904? Why, the Louisiana Purchase Exhibition aka the St. Louis World's Fair and the Summer Olympics. What a grand time to be a Missourian! Or...was it. Race into the past to learn about the scandalous side of these events.

Join Alice & Winkie as they dig into some cold cases from the past. Who killed a sweet old couple from Georgia? Who was the fancily-dressed mystery woman brutally slain in New Jersey? Who was gunning (pun intended) for outlaw Belle Starr? Let's see if we can shed some light on these troublesome events with Winkie Woo and the Mystery Podcast Machine.
