Us women have come together to talk about some of 'Histories Hotties'. Abba Starts off the Podcast with talking about the life of public priestess of Venus Pompeiana, Eumachia. Then we jump to Grace and the riveting story of Joan of Arc and how she broke gender fashion barriers while fighting for France. Next Catherine brings us close to home with a story about Isabella Stewart Gardner and how her art collection came to be. Then Maegan tells the story of Josephine Baker who led a double life as a famous singer while also being a spy for the French Resistance, as well as a civil rights advocate. Listeners then will hear about the amazing but somewhat sad life of Frida Kahlo. Nicole comes running in fast with two women who defied the odds of the sport of running, Wilma Rudolph and local Women Katherine Switzer. Lastly Hannah tells us a tale about Elaine May and how she worked her way through the film world. Enjoy!
