Riëënythii Victorian ci kuääny ke yeen adööc Australian ee ruön (Young Victorian Australian of the Year)
On a warm June afternoon in 1868, a 24-year-old woman accepted a glass of lemonade from her nurse at a Geneva boarding house. Within moments, her pupils dilated grotesquely, her heart pounded violently, and reality dissolved into nightmare. That glass of lemonade broke open one of Switzerland's most disturbing criminal cases.SEASON & EPISODE CONTEXTThis is Episode 9 of Foul Play Season 36: "Serial Killers in History," examining murderers from ancient times through the early 1900s. This season explores 15 cases spanning centuries and continents, revealing how serial murder predates modern criminology by millennia.THE CASE SUMMARYBetween 1865 and 1868, Marie Jeanneret worked as a private nurse in Geneva and surrounding areas of Switzerland, moving between respectable boarding houses and private hospitals. Everywhere she went, patients died under mysterious circumstances. Eleven-year-old children. Elderly widows. Entire families.Her method was both calculated and cruel. She used cutting-edge poisons for the 1860s—plant alkaloids like atropine from belladonna and morphine from opium poppies. These substances were so difficult to detect in corpses that she might never have been caught. She offered candy she called "princesses" to children. She served sweetened water to friends. She predicted deaths days before they happened—not because she had medical insight, but because she knew exactly when the poison would finish its work.When authorities finally exhumed the bodies in 1868, they found chemical signatures of murder in decomposing tissue. The trial revealed at least six confirmed murders and perhaps thirty attempted murders. But the verdict the jury reached would create one of criminal history's most profound paradoxes—her case helped abolish the death penalty in Geneva three years later.THE VICTIMSMarie Jeanneret's victims weren't random—they were people who trusted her completely during their most vulnerable moments:Marie Grétillat, 61, hired Jeanneret for what should have been a minor illness. She died in February 1867 after weeks of escalating agony.Sophie Juvet, 58, died in September 1867 at the Maison de Santé hospital where Jeanneret worked as a nurse.Jenny-Julie Juvet, Sophie's daughter, was only 11 years old. She loved candy and trusted the nurse who brought her special bonbons called "princesses." Before she died in January 1868, she begged her family not to let the nurse near her anymore. They thought she was delirious. She wasn't—she knew.Auguste Perrod (around 80), Louise-Marie Lenoir (72), Madame Hahn, Demoiselle Gay, Demoiselle Junod, Julie Bouvier, and Jacques Gros (Julie's father) all died under Jeanneret's care between 1867 and 1868.KEY CASE DETAILSTHE METHOD: Jeanneret used belladonna (deadly nightshade) and morphine as her primary weapons. Belladonna poisoning produces distinctive symptoms: grotesquely dilated pupils, rapid heartbeat, extreme light sensitivity, terrifying hallucinations, and eventually seizures and respiratory failure. Morphine suppresses breathing until victims simply stop inhaling—the death looks peaceful but is actually suffocation.As a nurse, she had legitimate access to these substances and professional cover for every action. She mixed poisons into sweet items—lemonade, sweetened water, candy—because sugar masks the bitter taste effectively. For some victims, she administered lower doses over time, creating slow declines that mimicked natural illness. For others, she used massive doses intended to kill quickly.THE BREAKTHROUGH: The case broke open when Marie-Catherine Fritzgès, 24, survived a belladonna poisoning in June 1868. Her doctor recognized the symptoms immediately and contacted authorities. Police searched Jeanneret's rooms and found bottles of belladonna extract, containers of morphine, and detailed nursing notes documenting every symptom, decline, and death—inadvertently documenting her own crimes.HISTORICAL CONTEXT & SOURCESThe 1860s represented a turning point in forensic medicine. Swiss medical examiners used groundbreaking techniques to test tissue samples for alkaloid compounds in exhumed bodies—finding chemical signatures consistent with belladonna and morphine poisoning. This case marked one of the first instances where forensic medicine played a crucial role in securing a conviction in Switzerland.The trial opened in Geneva in late 1868 with overwhelming evidence: poisoned bodies, survivors' testimony, bottles of poison, and Jeanneret's own nursing notes. On November 19, 1868, the jury returned a stunning verdict—guilty on all counts, but they recommended clemency. Instead of execution, Jeanneret received life imprisonment with hard labor.Three years later, in 1871, the Canton of Geneva abolished the death penalty. Jeanneret's case was cited as a key example—a jury had looked at overwhelming evidence of serial murder and chosen mercy over execution.RESOURCES & FURTHER READINGSwiss criminal history archives maintain extensive records of the Jeanneret case, including original trial transcripts and forensic reports that revolutionized poison detection methods. The case remains a standard reference in medical ethics courses throughout Europe, illustrating the catastrophic consequences of betrayed medical trust.The Geneva State Archives houses original court documents from the 1868 trial. Swiss forensic medicine institutes continue to study the case as a landmark example of early toxicology and the systematic safeguards developed in response to healthcare serial killers.RELATED FOUL PLAY EPISODESIf you found this episode compelling, explore other Foul Play cases involving Victorian-era poisoners and medical professionals who betrayed their sacred trust. Season 36 examines serial killers throughout history, from ancient Rome through the early 1900s, revealing how murder predates modern criminology and how society responded to unimaginable crimes.Each episode of Foul Play combines meticulous historical research with victim-centered storytelling, honoring those whose lives were taken while examining the criminals who took them.THE LEGACYMarie Jeanneret's crimes fundamentally transformed Switzerland's approach to medical safety and criminal investigation. The case exposed critical gaps in poison control, leading to strict measures including detailed record-keeping of sales and mandatory identification checks. Background checks for medical staff became more thorough, references were more carefully vetted, and supervision was enhanced throughout Europe.Perhaps most significantly, Jeanneret's case transformed public consciousness about the nature of evil. The idea that a healthcare professional could systematically murder patients while maintaining an appearance of respectability forced society to confront uncomfortable truths. The poisoner who took at least six lives became part of the movement that saved countless others from execution—the most paradoxical legacy imaginable.ABOUT FOUL PLAYFoul Play examines history's most compelling true crime cases with meticulous research and sophisticated storytelling. Hosts Shane Waters and Wendy Cee explore serial killers from ancient Rome through the early 1900s, focusing on victim-centered narratives that honor the dead rather than sensationalizing killers.

Vampire cult vibes included.We break down the hauntings, the strange histories, the design choices that feel too cursed, and what it would be like to actually live in these places.

Welcome to another edition of The Horses Mouth. In this episode I had the good fortune of speaking with none other than Luke Williams. Luke is one of those people with infectious energy — a great human, a great storyteller, and a serious gonad man. His ability to hold priority and wait for the right wave is enough to melt even the sternest of steel traps. Luke hails from the coastal Victorian town of Lorne, where he dominates both the point and the main drag. When he's not doing that, he's dominating the spot — and when he's not dominating the spot, he's at work, smashing houses together to help keep Victoria moving. He's got a biblical trade — a carpenter — and he's damn good at it too. And if he's not in the surf or on the tools, he's either hanging out with his girlfriend or trekking to some far-flung corner of the globe, sniffing out wedges and spreading the Luke Williams fairy-dust good vibes wherever he goes. Hope you enjoy our chat.

Westminer's most famous landmark, Big Ben, bongggged for the first time on 13th November, 1856, outside the not-yet-finished House of Commons. Londoners gathered to hear what would become Britain's most iconic sound; a spectacle so loud and unsettling that some spectators literally ran away. But the first bell didn't last long: after just eleven months of impressive Saturday tolls, it cracked under the strain of its own colossal hammer. The whole thing was melted down and recast by the Whitechapel Bell Foundry… but the second bell also cracked and broke! But, after a bit more tinkering - rotating the bell slightly and fitting a lighter hammer - Big Ben finally settled into its iconic almost-but-not-quite-E natural tone. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how the BBC struggled to adapt its chimes for radio broadcasts; reveal why the Elizabeth Tower leans ever so slightly; and consider a potential Victorian euphemism for pants-pissing… Further Reading: • ‘When Did Big Ben First Bong?'

It's been hailed as a moment centuries in the making: the signing of Australia's first ever state-wide treaty with Aboriginal people, described as something once thought impossible. The Australian-first treaty will take effect just before Christmas but will not be up and running until mid-2026. And for both sides signing the pact in Victoria, there's recognition of more hard work that needs to be done.
In the latest episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, hosts Liam Garman and Emilie Lauer explore the current state of the Australian property market, highlighting key trends affecting investors, first home buyers, and landlords. They discuss the Reserve Bank of Australia's decision to hold the cash rate at 3.60%, noting the stabilising effect on the market while economists remain divided on when the next move might occur. The hosts examine the First Home Guarantee Scheme, which has seen a 48% increase in uptake year-on-year, driving national price growth of 5.1%, with Melbourne and Sydney leading the rise. The discussion also covers commercial property, where Sydney offices are recovering post-pandemic, yields are tightening, and investor lending is surging to $40 billion, the highest level since 2017. Victorian landlords are also highlighted as facing regulatory challenges, including strict compliance rules and fines, and increasing reliance on property managers for guidance. Despite these pressures, demand for rental properties remains strong, driven by immigration and student housing needs, underscoring the critical role landlords play in the market.

She has written for the groundbreaking Know My Name project, that put women artists in Australia on a global stage as well as for Cindy Sherman, A World History of Women Photographers, and more. …but it was her exhibition last year that really grabbed my attention: Francesca Woodman and Julia Margaret Cameron: Portraits to Dream in', that brought together the two photographers working 100 years apart, from very different worlds, circumstances and contexts, but which showed how these pioneering women shaped the medium, with their dreamlike pictures imbued with beauty, symbolism, classicism, transformation and more… So today, I couldn't be more excited to delve into the life of the 19th century photographer, Julia Margaret Cameron, who, aged 49 in 1863, picked up a camera and, largely self-taught, crafted her distinct bohemian style pictures with that hazy sepia glow, that proved to not only be influential in Victorian Britain, but have a huge impact on photography at large. As Cameron once said: “My aspirations are to ennoble Photography and to secure for it the character and uses of High Art by combining the real & Ideal & sacrificing nothing of Truth by all possible devotion to poetry and beauty.” And I can't wait to find out more.

Our friend Tarra (who is definitely not a vampire) returns to tackle the fifty-second chapter of Varney the Vampire, wherein the chapter title promises The Interview Between the Mob and Sir Francis Varney, the Mysterious Disappearance, and the Wine Cellars. Varney the Vampire is a genuine penny dreadful, read aloud one chapter per week just like the original Victorian audience would do for the authentic 1840s coffeehouse experience.

November is Nol-vember here on @wedrinkandwewatchthings and we're kicking off the month by pulling apart the cinematic mechanism that is Christopher Nolan's 2006 masterpiece of deception, "The Prestige." Grab your favorite drink...maybe our featured Danton's Obsession cocktail? Because this movie is as dark, rich, and endlessly complex as the rivalry it depicts. Get ready to dive into the world of Angier and Borden, where dedication to the craft becomes a blood-soaked obsession.This week, we are dissecting every stage of the illusion: The Pledge, The Turn, and most importantly, The Prestige. We'll be talking about the breathtaking performances by Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman, the incredible mood created by the Victorian setting, and the film's central, terrifying question: What are you willing to sacrifice for greatness? We also touch on the genius of David Bowie as Nikola Tesla, the unforgettable—and deeply unsettling—role of technology, and which magician, in our opinion, paid the heavier price for their art.If you love puzzle-box narratives, cinematic sleight-of-hand, and dark psychological thrillers, this is the episode for you. Join us as we try to discover the secrets hidden within the secrets, mixing our usual casual commentary with a deep appreciation for a film that proves sometimes, the most horrifying magic trick is the one you play on yourself. Now, let the rivalry begin!This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram and TikTok to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming next.

The Victorian government has released the final report of an inquiry into women's experiences of pain - and it's made for some uncomfortable reading. Shaped by the experiences of 13,000 women and girls, the report has revealed gender health gaps, experiences of medical bias, sexism and misogyny, and feelings of being ignored or dismissed by clinicians are rampant throughout the Victorian health system. - महिलाहरूले अनुभव गर्ने गरेका दुखाइका बारेमा गरिएको छानबिन पछि भिक्टोरिया सरकारले एक रिपोर्ट सार्वजनिक गरेको छ। करिब १३,००० महिला र किशोरीहरूको अनुभवमा आधारित उक्त प्रतिवेदनले राज्यका स्वास्थ्य सेवामा चिकित्सकीय पूर्वाग्रह वा ‘मेडिकल बायस' र लैङ्गिक भेदभावदेखि उपचारका क्रममा बेवास्ता भोग्ने गरेको जनाएको छ।
In her new book, Ghosted: A History of Ghost Hunting and Why We Keep Looking, Alice Vernon sets out to chase the one thing she isn't even sure exists—and discovers that the search for ghosts says more about the living than the dead. What begins as a skeptic's experiment becomes a haunting journey through centuries of belief. From candlelit Victorian séances to ghost hunts streamed on YouTube, she explores how our obsession with the afterlife has evolved—but never disappeared. Each new invention, from telegrams to EMF meters, becomes another way to reach across the void, to prove that love, grief, or even guilt can outlast death. As she moves deeper into Britain's most haunted places—churchyards, crumbling estates, and lonely moors—she begins to feel the same pull that's gripped believers for generations. Maybe the ghosts aren't what we think they are. Maybe they're reflections of everything we've lost… and everything we still hope to find. Part history, part investigation, Ghosted is a chilling, intimate exploration of why we keep trying to prove what we can't explain—and why our search for the dead may really be a search for meaning among the living. This is Part Two of our conversation. #Ghosted #AliceVernon #ParanormalPodcast #HauntedHistory #GhostHunting #WhyWeBelieve #ScienceAndTheSupernatural #VictorianSpiritualism #HauntedBritain #TrueGhostStories #LifeAfterDeath #CulturalMystery Love real ghost stories?
