63: 1883 Timeline Twist & The Murder of Phoebe Veitch
from You Ain't a'Woofin · host Amy Jo McCarville and Valerie Alonzo
On today’s episode, Valerie covers late 19th century advancements in electricity, the man behind the first vaudeville theater in Boston, the mysterious 1883 Hot Springs Mystery Photograph, an unparalleled hair lotion that was celebrated by ALL classes of society all over the world, and greased flagpoles on Evacuation Day, in the 1883 Timeline Twist. Next, Amy Jo tells a tragic story that began with the discovery of the body of a young girl in the Whanganui River. Her struggling single mother offered a number of stories, and was judged harshly by witnesses and spectators alike throughout her trial, during which Phoebe Vietch made New Zealand history by “pleading her belly” - something no one had done before or since.For content sources visit our website: youaintawoofinpod.comFollow and SupportInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/youaintawoofinpod/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/YouAintaWoofin/Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/youaintawoofinpod.bsky.social Patreon: http://patreon.com/user?u=106344174
