Nurse Ratchet
This isn’t your typical true crime podcast.
The Nurse Ratchet Podcast blends real-life stories, survival, safety, and the darker side of human behaviour — all through the lens of a nurse who’s seen more than most.
From true crime to expert interviews and the kinds of stories that stay with you, this is where curiosity meets reality.
It’s not just about what happened… it’s about why — and what you’d do if it were you.

Georgia presents the spooky Beechworth Asylum also known as Mayday Hills. Built in 1867 as the Beechworth ‘Lunatic’ Asylum comprises 67 buildings that once housed more than 1200 male and female patients, and 500 staff members at its peak. Like many asylums, Beechworth Asylum has a dark and sad history. Little was known about mental health in the 19th century, let alone how to treat mental health issues properly. Tours run regularly at night, with tour guides sharing the legends of the poor souls who found themselves patients of the asylum.
