Description

Taylor's voice is still on the mend so we're bringing one another one from our archives, this time from way back in June 2020!

This week's episode digs into the details of the Victorian practice of baby farming and the woman who killed over 200 babies in her care.

We even have a fun discussion about all the different ways people in the Victorian Era were exposed to and ingesting poisons! Listen in as we discuss baby farming and the infamous Amelia Dyer, a truly terrifying and despicable character with an equally terrifying photograph!
