Wining About Herstory

Ep159. The 11-Year-Old that Peaced Off to America & The $64,000 Woman


Listen Later

Mailing children, sinister quiz shows, and a wrathful makeup company are just a few of the things we're covering in this week's episode! First, Kelley covers Mary Tape who emigrated to the United States alone at 11-years-old to realize the American dream. But when the local school board felt she and her family weren't American enough for that dream, she went to war. Then, Emily covers Dr. Joyce Brothers, a nerd who appeared on The $64,000 Question to help her family, but when she wasn't feminine enough, the show tried to take her down. Pin the postage to your shirt and be wary of your local mail carrier, because it's time to wine about herstory!
