Episode 92
Even if she’d never boarded the Titanic and survived its sinking, Margaret “Molly” Brown would have had a life worth commenting on. After her husband’s mining firm hit it big, she used her wealth to help the poor, reform the juvenile justice system, build the new Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Denver, and agitate for women’s suffrage, among other endeavors.
