In Part 1 of History in the Pines, Kat and Maggie explore the remarkable early life of Dr. Kate Newcomb, the beloved “Angel on Snowshoes.” From her childhood and education to the experiences that shaped her determination and compassion, we follow Kate’s journey as she pursued a medical career in a time when few women entered the profession. This episode traces the challenges, triumphs, and personal struggles that led to a lengthy hiatus from medicineand ultimately to her decision to return to the calling that would make her a Northwoods legend.

Kat is flying solo this time as she sits down with Schellie from Schellie’s Sconnie Shenanigans to talk all things Wisconsin supper club culture—her travels, her love for the experience, and of course… all the drinks along the way.Follow sSchellie on Instagram, Facebook and Tiktok
