Join podcasting siblings Bambi and Jamie Chambers as they venture further into the ValueTales series from the 1980s with The Value of Learning: The Story of Marie Curie. In this episode they dissect the peculiar storytelling of an extraordinary scientist's life—the only person to ever win a Nobel Prize in both physics and chemistry. She's also one of the few people in history entombed in lead because her incredible discovery also killed her dead and left behind a corpse that would startle a geiger counter. Marie Curie is given much respect while the children's book about her ... not so much. But at least we learn the private concerns of an imaginary friend named "Fizz." Check out their candid thoughts and insights on this unusual take on a scientific legend's life story.
