How the Radium Girls Exposed One of History's Deadliest Corporate Cover-Ups

Young women hired to paint watch dials with radium were told the glowing substance was harmless — even as their jaws crumbled and their bones slowly turned to dust from the inside out. *No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast* IN THIS EPISODE: During World War I, hundreds of young women went to work in clock factories, painting watch dials with luminous radium paint. But after the girls — who literally glowed in the dark after their shifts — began to experience gruesome side effects, they began a race-against-time fight for justice that would forever change US labor laws. (The Radium Ghost Girls) *** A man is forewarned about a traffic accident that probably would have killed him. Was it a guardian angel, or is there another explanation? (The Phantom’s Fatal Forewarning) *** While the search for extraterrestrial life here in this universe is complicated enough, the problem becomes even murkier when you account for the multiverse theory. Could an alternate universe or dimension still be habitable by humans? (Is It Possible To Live In A Parallel Universe?) *** It has been proven that the Nazis were horrible war criminals and not only did some cruel and inhuman things to their prisoners, but even dove into the supernatural and paranormal in the hopes of turning the tide of the war in their favor. But I’m guessing you’ve not hear about how the Nazis used Bigfoot to further their plans, have you? (Nazi Gold and Bigfoot Costumes) *** Sometimes a horror film will haunt you in your dreams… but for one woman, those hauntings became more real than the movie itself.

The Black Dogs That Appear Before You Die | And the People Who Have Seen Them

For centuries and across nearly every culture on earth, enormous black dogs with glowing red eyes have appeared to the living as omens of death — and the people who dismissed the legend rarely lived long enough to regret it. *No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast* IN THIS EPISODE: One of our Weirdo family members has asked if I wouldn’t consider doing an episode on man’s best friend – but as this is Weird Darkness I couldn’t very well just pull a bunch of stories of dogs saving lives of lost children, or walking hundreds of miles back to their families after being left behind on a trip, or solving a crime by sniffing out drugs in an airport. So in this episode we’re talking about dogs of the supernatural kind – the ghostly dogs, the specters and phantoms in canine form.  HELPFUL LINKS & RESOURCES… https://WeirdDarkness.com/STORE [https://weirddarkness.com/STORE] = Tees, Mugs, Socks, Hoodies, Totes, Hats, Kidswear & More https://WeirdDarkness.com/HOPE [https://weirddarkness.com/HOPE] = Hope For Depression or Thoughts of Self-Harm https://WeirdDarkness.com/NEWSLETTER [https://weirddarkness.com/NEWSLETTER] = In-Depth Articles, Memes, Weird DarkNEWS, Videos & More https://WeirdDarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS [https://weirddarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS] = FREE Audiobooks Narrated By Darren Marlar SOURCES and RESOURCES:“Ghostly Dogs and Phantom Hounds” from LookAndLearn.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/bbnfdtyc [https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/bbnfdtyc], Anomalien.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/xznp7j4 [https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/xznp7j4], Ancient-Origins.net: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/vavhruuj [https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/vavhruuj], TransCeltic.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/d8s3mhhd [https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/d8s3mhhd], and MysteriousBritain.co.uk: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2cwk3kxr [https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2cwk3kxr], https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/f385mrjm [https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/f385mrjm]===== (Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.
