Join Marki and Claire on a boozy drive into part three of their series on "The Radium Girl". Margaret Looney was one of the courageous Radium Girls who, during the early 20th century, fought for justice and workers' rights after being exposed to hazardous materials while painting luminous watch dials. Her resilience and advocacy helped shed light on the dangers of radium exposure and paved the way for improved workplace safety regulations. Despite facing immense challenges, Margaret's legacy continues to inspire efforts to protect workers' health and safety to this day.
