150: Life Before Worker’s Rights: This Toxic Workplace Turned Girls Radioactive!?
<div>Hi friends, happy Wednesdsay!<br> <br> Back in the 1800s, matches were a huge deal. In the days before electricity, you needed matches to light your candles, your lamps, your stove so you could cook, and even your fireplace so you wouldn’t freeze to death. Many considered matches to be *the most* important item in the home.<br> <br> But… ironically… the history of matches is *dark.* Making matches often led to slow, painful deaths. And workers who didn’t die had to live with brutal, face-altering injuries for the rest of their lives. And, it led to a legendary strike that changed worker’s rights forever. <br> <br> I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History.<br> <br> Want some cool Bailey Merch?<br> Shop Dark History Merch: <a href="https://www.baileysarian.com">https://www.baileysarian.com</a><br> <br> _________<br> <br> FOLLOW ME AROUND <br> Tik Tok: <a href="https://bit.ly/3e3jL9v">https://bit.ly/3e3jL9v</a><br> Instagram: <a href="http://bit.ly/2nbO4PR">http://bit.ly/2nbO4PR</a><br> Facebook: <a href="http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6">http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6</a><br> Twitter: <a href="http://bit.ly/2yT4BLV">http://bit.ly/2yT4BLV</a><br> Pinterest: <a href="http://bit.ly/2mVpXnY">http://bit.ly/2mVpXnY</a><br> Youtube: <a href="http://bit.ly/1HGw3Og">http://bit.ly/1HGw3Og</a><br> Snapchat: <a href="https://bit.ly/3cC0V9d">https://bit.ly/3cC0V9d</a><br> Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/BaileySarian">https://discord.gg/BaileySarian</a><br> <br> RECOMMEND A STORY HERE: [email protected] <br> <br> Business Related Emails: [email protected]<br> <br> Business Related Mail: <br> Bailey Sarian <br> 4400 W.

So I put on an old classic… SAW. A couple of years ago, we did a Dark History episode on Ancient Torture. And that alone was *way* scarier than Saw. <br> <br> I went back and looked into my notes for that episode and girl… I forgot that there are all of these torture techniques we didn’t get to get into. And let’s just say… they’re keeping me up at night. These torture techniques are *creative* to say the least. So join me on this journey… again!

How did we get to Edward Cullen and Buffy and vampires basically being the sexiest villains out there? <br> <br> Well friends, I got to the bottom of it.

When I was going through my closet looking for Joan’s Halloween costumes, something fell from the shelf straight onto my head. It was my Ouija board. And look… I don’t know if it’s because of spooky season or what, but it spooked me. <br> <br> I mean yeah, it’s *just* a board game… but it *is* communicating with spirits...allegedly. It made me wonder… why are we letting kids casually communicate with the dead? <br> <br> So I got to searching. Turns out, there is a long, wild history behind the Ouija board, and some of America’s most popular board games. And a lot of their stories end in *murder.* <br> <br> I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History.<br> <br> _______<br> <br> Want some cool Bailey Merch?<br> Shop Dark History Merch: <a href="https://www.baileysarian.com">https://www.baileysarian.com</a><br> <br> _______<br> <br> You can find the Dark History podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you listen to your podcasts, and every Thursday here on my YouTube for the visual side of things.<br> <br> Apple Podcast- <a href="https://www.apple.co/darkhistory">https://www.apple.co/darkhistory</a><br> Dark History Merch-  <a href="https://www.baileysarian.com">https://www.baileysarian.com</a><br> _______<br> <br> FOLLOW ME AROUND <br> Tik Tok: <a href="https://bit.ly/3e3jL9v">https://bit.ly/3e3jL9v</a><br> Instagram: <a href="http://bit.ly/2nbO4PR">http://bit.ly/2nbO4PR</a><br> Facebook: <a href="http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6">http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6</a><br> Twitter: <a href="http://bit.ly/2yT4BLV">http://bit.ly/2yT4BLV</a><br> Pinterest: <a href="http://bit.ly/2mVpXnY">http://bit.ly/2mVpXnY</a><br> Youtube: <a href="http://bit.ly/1HGw3Og">http://bit.ly/1HGw3Og</a><br> Snapchat: <a href="https://bit.ly/3cC0V9d">https://bit.ly/3cC0V9d</a><br> Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/BaileySarian">https://discord.gg/BaileySarian</a><br> <br> RECOMMEND A STORY HERE: [email protected] <br> <br> Business Related Emails: [email protected]<br> <br> Business Related Mail: <br> Bailey Sarian <br> 4400 W.
