S9E11: Magic Carpet Ride | Kate Warne, PI & American Heiress Consuelo Vanderbilt
Description
This week, we're pulling a few recent favorites from the Patreon vault! Stacie has some wild tales from the career of America's first Lady Pinkerton, Kate Warne, who pioneered the field for women in the 19th century. Then, Alicia has the very trashy gilded age life of Consuelo Vanderbilt, whose marriage of convenience to the Duke of Marlborough ended up being anything but.
