This is Cassidy's favorite topic yet.
In the 1890s, Princess Clara from Detroit, Michigan, may have been the most hated woman in the world.

This week, Cassidy shares the life story of one of the most complicated, scandalous, beautiful and bizarre women in the history of Michigan (and perhaps the world). Tune in to hear how this Belgian Princess would eventually become a symbol for sex and "moral decline."
