Hey, true weirdos, thank you so much for all your support. Because of your support, we were able to win some awards with this podcast in the past year. And be sure to stick around for the conversation we have after the episode.

No one expected this pair of sisters born to a life of privilege to wind up running a brothel in a rough part of Chicago.

I talked with each applicant myself. She must have worked somewhere else before coming here.

We do not like amateurs. Inexperienced girls and young widows are too prone to accept offers of marriage and leave.

To get in, a girl must have a pretty face and figure, be in perfect health, and understand

what it is to act like a lady.

If she's addicted to drugs or to drink, we do not want her.

There is no problem in keeping the club filled.

We always have a waiting list.

The club, the finest in Chicago, among the finest in the world.

No house of courtesans in the world was so richly furnished, so well advertised,

so continuously patronized by men of wealth and slight morals as the Everly Club on Dearborn Street.

Couple of debutants who refused to play by any of society's rules, take on the oldest profession in the world.

Welcome to the Everly Club.

And they got a small beam of light against the mirror.

Thank you.

Real, right.

Real, right.

I'm going to go.

No, no, no.

Yeah.

We can't have. Real. Weird. Meet the Sims sisters, Ada and Minna.
