Lindsay and Madison discuss reporter Nellie Bly and her experience at Blackwell Island Insane Asylum, as well as why it sucked to be a woman in the Victorian Era (cause chances are you’re insane), that it’s always a good idea to fight misogyny, and how important it is to stick to your guns regardless of your gender.
