We Will Get Past This

5 You Can't Put A Woman on the Stage


Listen Later

Sandi takes a break from Zumba to let us all in to her room of books and today we hear about Anne of Denmark, who isn't to be confused with the Anne played by Olivia Coleman, but who in fact was wife to King James I and played a significant role in getting women on the stage...although he and her husband had some pretty idiotic arguments whilst she was achieving this.

And Sandi also educates us all on the first (and only?) women to be banned from the Olympics after a champagne 'doping' scandal.

Take care everyone, We Will Get Past This.
