110. Mata Hari: The Rachel Dolezal Of WWI

On today’s episode, we go back to the early 1900's as we tell the story of an "exotic" beauty — a nasty dancer, dancer for money, a woman who walked so Rachel Dolezal could run. Labeled a notorious femme fatale spy and blamed for the deaths of 50,000 soldiers. Her name became legend. Her story became myth. And the truth? It’s buried beneath war, paranoia, and a nation desperate for a villain.Research Sources: https://youtu.be/XFgkhL3atuk?si=DDPiB_zMlhkP4vLZhttps://youtu.be/wrS2jHMhPG4?si=whFUNXeVrTbbxSClhttps://youtu.be/UGB1SN-dRJ0?si=vVvORlO2oELeRemo
