Nurse Ratchet
Nurse Ratchet is a podcast for the stories that should never have happened… in a perfect world.
Hosted by registered nurse Georgia Kait, this show dives into the darker side of real life — from true crime cases and survival stories to medical malpractice, unexplained events, and the moments that don’t quite make sense.
Because most of the time, what’s written in the report… isn’t the full story.
With a background in operating room nursing, Georgia brings a different lens — breaking down what actually happens behind hospital doors, the details people miss, and the questions that don’t get asked.
Some episodes will take you inside real cases.
Some will explore stories of survival and human resilience.
Others step into the uncomfortable, the unexplained, and the unsettling.
But they all have one thing in common:
Something about them doesn’t sit right.
If you’re drawn to true crime, real-life mysteries, and the reality of what happens when things go wrong — you’re in the right place.
