People speak of virginity as if it’s a thing. It’s not. It’s not a thing. Kimberly and Dawn talk about the science and the myth of virginity, and why it can be useful, but mostly isn’t.

It is our pleasure, once again, to present a fascinating conversation with Max Dashu!

Max Dashu has championed the various lost histories of women and championed female-centric civilizations for decades. Max Dashu founded the Suppressed Histories Archives in January of 1970 to research and document women's history on a global scale.

In today's episode, we discuss chapter one of Max's new book Women In Greek Mythography.  Focused on the Titanides, the pre-Olympian goddesses, chapter one explores their original stories and the later patriarchal revisions.  Female-centric, the mythology of the Titanides explained how the universe came into being, with goddesses central to that understanding.

Sean Marlon Newcombe and Dawn "Sam" Alden co-host.

Lucy founded Womancraft Publishing, publishing paradigm-shifting books by women for women, in 2014. 

Listen in as we celebrate the transformative power of the stories of women by women!

As with so many women in Greek mythology, Medea has seen her nature, persona and story changed pejoratively with every retelling by the men who spoke her name.  In today's episode, we chat with guest Miriam Robbins Dexter and our regular host and founding member of the podcast, Vicki Noble, about the origin of Medea and the true nature of her story.

Miriam Robbins Dexter, Ph.D., holds a B.A. in Classics and a Ph.D. in Indo-European Studies (comparative linguistics, archaeology and mythology), from the University of California, Los Angeles.  Her friend and colleague, Vicki Noble, is a regular member of the Make Matriarchy Great Again team and is the author of such seminal works of women's history as Double Goddess and Shakti Woman.

Women talking to each other - how dare they? Kimberly and Dawn talk to each other about the origin of the campaign against gossip, and how most of it is actually very good for all of us. Let’s chat!

The founder of the Academy Hagia and one of the strongest voices in the Modern Matriarchal Studies movement, Heide Göttner-Abendroth has written books and articles and given amazing talks on historical and extant matriarchy around the globe. It is her definition of what makes a matriarchy that we use on our podcast. We are SO thrilled to be able to speak to her about her own history, and what in her life brought her to matriarchal studies. Join us for a fascinating discussion!
