During World War I and II, thousands of women stepped into munitions factories to keep the war machine running. 

But their sacrifice came at a shocking cost—exposure to TNT turned their skin a bright yellow, earning them the nickname Canary Girls. 

From deadly explosions to lifelong health effects, these unsung heroines risked it all, proving that not all warriors carried weapons.

In this episode, we dive into the explosive history of the Canary Girls, their resilience, and the surprising ways they continued with their lives. 

Tune in for a story of danger, determination, and the women who quite literally glowed for victory!
