  • Ep8. A Fleeing Physicist & The Cinderella of Science

    Crack open a deceptively acidic bottle of Lost Angel moscato  and prepare to get sciencey as fuck as Kelley & Emily cover two underappreciated STEM ladies! Emily starts off by covering physicist Hedwig Kohn. The ladies talk about Hedwig's SUPER FRUSTRATING escape from Nazi Germany and how they aren't qualified to be U.S. citizens. Then, Kelley gets astronomical (astrologonomical?) covering the Cinderella of Science Caroline Herschel! Though Caroline came from humble beginnings and she struggled to escape her brother's shadow, she went on to become an incredible astronomer! Crack open your textbooks and cover Uranus because herstory has never been this tipsy!

  • Ep7. More Than the Entrails and the Breast & Warriors Worth a Thousand

    This week, amateur wine queens Kelley and Emily are trying their best (because pronunciations are hard) while sipping on some Cupcake Sauvignon Blanc to cope with Minnesota's second winter. Kelley starts us off by covering Paulina Luisi who was such a badass, she thought nothing of a severed penis being hidden in her bag. She was also the first women to earn a medical degree in Uruguay, fought for women's rights, advocated for more comprehensive sexual education, and generally GOT SHIT DONE. Emily talks about the onna-bugeisha, fierce female Japanese warriors. She covers 3 prominent onna-bugeisha each just as badass as the last. We also give a shout out to artist Gabriel Diaz (@gabydiazortiz) who is writing and illustrating a book on Artemisia Gentileschi! Crack open a bottle and thank God you don't live in Minnesota, because wining is about to get serious!

  • Ep6. A Sunday Rider & A Computer in a Skirt

    This week the ladies' synergy is in full force as they both cover prominent black women who broke down barriers and generally kicked ass! While sipping on some face-kicking Lake Girl Pontoon Red wine, Emily starts off with the story of Elizabeth Jennings Graham a teacher and church organist who was already running late for church and then kicked off of a streetcar for being black. She turned her shitty experience into a movement to fight segregation on transit in New York. Then, Kelley covers a gal who both she and Emily should have known, legendary mathematician Katherine Johnson! Katherine fought for her place at the table and was played a central role of some of NASA's most pivotal missions! We also give a special shout out to physicist Hedwig Kohn (132 years young girl!) So grab your wine glasses and get clinky with it!

  • Ep5. The Fighting Girlfriend, an Unsexed Soldier, & a Police Matron

    On this particularly tipsy episode (brought to you by a bottle of Ame Du Vin Rose) the ladies are doing some extra credit and covering 3, count them, 3 women! Kelley covers two military women who felt the call to serve, even when no one asked (or wanted them) them to. First, Mariya Oktyabrskaya, who bought her own fucking tank to go fight the Nazis and avenge her fallen husband. Next, Sarah Emma Edmonds, who traveled all the way from Canada and dressed as a man to fight for the Union in the American Civil War! Finally, Emily tells the story of Isabella Goodwin and how he brought down a gangster with a hilarious nickname to become New York's first female police detective! Top off your glass, grab some Sour Patch Kids, and settle in because herstory is about to get tipsy!

  • Ep4. Who Paints Michelangelo's Ceiling & a Spy with a Cheetah Named Chiquita

    Strap in and strap on for Emily's sexy NPR voice as the ladies pop open an unusually supportive bottle of Sutter Home Cabernet Sauvignon to talk about some incredible women! Emily starts off covering artist Artemisia Gentileschi who was such a skilled artist, Michelangelo (or his nephew by the same name) asked her to paint his ceiling! Kelley ends the show on a high note as she tells the story of black performer Josephine Baker who had lived more by 15 than most do by 60. She was so fabulous, she had her own cheetah! Pop a bottle, get tipsy, and let's talk herstory!

  • Ep3. The NOT Queen of Egypt & the NOT Sultana of Dehli

    The ladies are here with their cheapest wine yet; a FREE bottle of ForestVille Riesling (that they totally didn't let sit around for 4 years.) It pairs perfectly with a pair of royal ladies who probably would have been besties and started their own podcast had they not lived hundreds of years apart. First, Kelley shares the story of Hatshepsut, an Egyptian Pharaoh (NOT QUEEN) who politely usurped a child. Then, Emily shares the story of Razia, the first and only woman Sultan (NOT SULTANA) of Delhi and her journey from being overlooked to being a ruler!

  • Ep2. Medical Mavens & The First Seagull in Space

    Kelley & Emily are back to bring you more women's history and more wine! In this episode, these sweet bitches twist open a bottle of Sweet Bitch Moscato and talk about the Edinburgh 7 who taught them that if at first you don't succeed, recruit more women. Also, we cover a living legend who set her sights VERY high- Valentina Tereshkova!

  • Ep1. A Revolutionary Rider & A Revolutionary Writer

    In their first episode, dynamic duo Kelley & Emily pop open a bottle of The Arsonist chardonnay (a very wet wine) and talk about two revolutionary women- Sybil Luddington & Olympe de Gouges. Strap in and strap on for wine, laughs, and women's history as these two make a history headcanon and stumble through French pronunciations!
