It's a snowy, blustery day in Minnesota, so today's episode was recorded remotely which means frequent fur baby interruptions and drinking the cold away! First, Kelley tells the story of Fanny Blankers-Koen, a woman who had the totally unrelatable problem of  being too good at too many sports. She would pursue running and use her athleticism to reach international stardom and to tell the Nazis to go to hell! Then, Emily brings another daughter of the corn into the spotlight with Lizzie Magie! Lizzie believed in a more equitable economic system which led her to create a board game that would become the third most popular game on the planet.

As we cautiously move into 2024, the ladies are both covering women without birth dates, photos, or worse, photos of the entirely wrong woman! First, Kelley tells the story of inventor Alice H. Parker who filed the first patent for a natural gas heating system so that people wouldn't burn their houses down and could finally sleep naked. But why did this revolutionary patent that is the basis of all forced-air heating systems never get built?? Then, Emily covers Rosalie 'Rose' Bamberger who founded one of the first, and best known lesbian activism groups, but we know little about her personal life. Don't let old bottles forgot and catfish white supremacists for the FBI because we're wining about herstory!
