In 1742, a nun named Josephine Rosenthal changed everything — quietly, accidentally, and in a way the Church has been trying to erase ever since. When a cloistered virgin became pregnant behind convent walls, it forced a question nobody was ready to answer: what happens when a miracle doesn’t fit the story you’re trying to tell? This episode walks through the life, death, and hidden legacy of Josephine and her daughter Maria — a mystery woven with faith, science, conspiracy, and a whole lot of uncomfortable truths. Some called it a miracle. Some called it something worse. Either way, parts of this story are still sealed away… and parts won’t stay buried.
