Episode 27 - Mississippi
This week we are listening to some Blues and exploring Mississippi.
Maggie starts us off with a super interesting story about Nellie Jackson, a black woman who ran a successful brothel for many years!
Amber then tells us about Benny Joe Stevens who couldn't cope with losing to his wife in their divorce/custody battle and back child support may have pushed him to do something terrible.
