June 03, 2021 🔓 *UNLOCKED* Patreon Episode "Herstorytime #9 - Movies & Mimosas 1: Jojo Rabbit"
This week on Lady History: Because it was a holiday weekend and we all were super busy, we decided to release an unlocked episode from our Patreon this week. We will be back next week with our first Pride episode!
Herstorytime episodes come in a variety of forms, ranging from "cut content" clip compilations to newly recorded episodes on movies, museums, and more! Each episode is approximately 20-60 minutes long. They are more "chill" than our main feed episodes, and we hope they feel like having a friend in your ear hole. One part of Herstorytime is our 'Movies and Mimosas' series, where we talk about films related to history! This particular episode covers all our feelings about the film Jojo Rabbit. If you want more, sign up to our Patreon as a Sensational Superfan or Confident Contributor.
