  • Love this!

    This is an informative and wonderfully entertaining podcast! It reminds me a lot of the humorous true crime podcasts like True Crime Obsessed and Let’s Go to Court. The hosts do an amazing job of drawing attention to historical women in a fun and lightly snarky way that brings history alive.

  • Love these women!

    I stumbled upon this pod as I was searching for something historical about women and bam two crazy smart, intelligent, funny women serving up all things history and women! But they also include action! This isn’t just for teachers it’s for anyone who has always felt they were missing half the story and facts when it comes to women in history. Can’t wait for more!

S6E2 The East Wing with Andrew Och, the First Ladies Man
Q: What was your main concern with the demolition of the East Wing?
My main concern was will any of the things that we needed or loved be replaced or is this just a giant ballroom?
S5E23 Forgotten Warriors with Sarah Percy
Q: What are the primary arguments for why women should not serve in combat?
The two arguments are that women aren't physically strong enough and the magical bond that occurs among men in combat which could be disrupted by a woman's presence.
S5E23 Forgotten Warriors with Sarah Percy
Q: Did you encounter that a lot in your research?
Yes, particularly in the context of cross-dressing soldiers where the documentation of their existence is often erased due to issues surrounding femininity.
S5E22 Uncredited Women with Allison Tyra
Q: What is the importance of including women's stories in education?
It helps close the empathy gap and combat entrenched biases about women's contributions to history.
