Josephine Baker: Showgirl and WWII Spy 


You know those people who are just so infuriatingly, unbelievably, undeniably good at, well, everything? 


Believe it or not, this podcast isn’t about us (although, thank you), it’s about Josephine Baker - the original slashie. 


Think: singer, dancer, model, socialite, social justice warrior, model and all-round superstar. 


This episode, we look at this incredible woman’s life and if there’s one thing we can promise: it’s never boring. 


Eat your heart out, triple threats.
