The Dial Painters Part 1: the radium girls

We talked before about workplace negligence in our Triangulating Disaster episode, and how that could lead to people's deaths this time we're diving into the subject again with the radium girls during the 1920s and how outright lies,  medical malpractice, and negligence led to the deaths and illness of many women during that time. This is part one of a 2 part episode because there was just too much to cover in just 1 episode stay tuned next week for the follow up.
