This week Tina is joined once again by Nurse Jessica Sites. Nurse Jessica is one of the internet's favorite nurses with all of her funny videos on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. Together, Tina and Jessica tell the super creepy story of a nurse from the late 1800s who was a cold-blooded killer. Amelia Dyer would prey on young, single women who were pregnant and promise them a place to stay and to find a home for their babies. The good nurse story is one you will not want to skip over. Tracy McCarter is a nurse practitioner who was in an abusive relationship when she finally got the courage up to leave her husband. One night he showed up at her apartment and now Tracy is in prison awaiting trial for murder after defending herself. The Not Necessarily Nursing News segment is a funny article about OB/GYN doctors who were swabbing the wrong end to do COVID testing!
