Wining About Herstory

The ladies are back after a trip to Texas and a nasty stomach bug, just in time to celebrate PRIDE! All month, Kelley & Emily will profile queer women that you DEF should have heard of. First, Kelley tells the story of Emma Trosse who was one of the first women to write a academically about sexuality beyond heterosexual relationships and would have had the best podcasts. Then, Emily pays tribute to Pride and Texas with the story of Barbara Jordan who took a hammer to gender and racial barriers until she took on the President of the United States on national television. Grab your medieval medical devices and forget how to say committeettiee, because it's time to wine about herstory!

This week's women both have enduring legacies that still impact us today- even if we don't know it. First, Emily covers Sarah Josepha Hale, a nerd who advocated for women's education and historical preservation, but is best known for a little poem about a girl and her lamb. Then, Kelley (if Emily allows her) shares the story of Elizabeth Fry who tirelessly advocated for prison reform and many of her policies are still standard today. Start dressing the turkey and grab a head of lettuce, because it's time to wine about herstory!

There are A LOT of feelings in this week's episode, which means LOTS of chaos and LOTS of tangents! But at the heart of it all are two amazing ladies (and the women we're covering ;P) First, Kelley covers epic inventor, Beulah Louise Henry, who is often compared to Thomas Edison (except she actually invented her own things and didn't murder an elephant.) Then, Emily shares the story of Kitty Cone, a hero from her hometown in Illinois who battled injustice while also battling MS. Grab your umbrella and get some friends who can carry you, because we're wining about herstory!

Then, Kelley shares the story of Anne Mackintosh who, while her husband was off trying to quash an uprising, raised her own army to oppose his forces.

In this particularly raspy episode, we're talking about naught royals and dropping some sweet cock rhymes!

After an unintended break (and some serious kismet) the ladies are delivering a blast from the past!

She was also a healthcare pioneer in California who started her life-saving career when she was just a kid.
