  • Ep282. Death Row Granny & Bitter Well Ghost
    It's the spookiest time of the year and the ladies have two terrifying tales that aren't even close to being as horrifying as our present day circumstances. Kelley tells the story of Velma Barfield, who had a nasty habit of doing an arsenic. Then, Emily tells the legend of Okiku, a dishwasher who took her job so seriously, that it brought her back from the grave (that and a super traumatic death) along with Okiku the haunted doll who lives a better life than most people. Go to therapy and NEVER buy your sister a doll because we're wining about herstory! Join the Funerary Cult: https://www.patreon.com/winingaboutherstory

  • Ep281. Madam on the Mall & The Italian Bride
    Girl bosses? Check. Overbearing mothers? Check. Politicians getting into sexy shenanigans? You betcha! Emily returns to Congressional Cemetery to pay her respects to one of its most (in)famous interns, Mary Ann Hall. From humble beginnings, Mary Ann worked her way up to be one of the most successful business women in Washington D.C. Servicing politicians, socialites, and the elite just blocks away from the nation's capitol, Mary Ann was making bank. The only problem was, her business was illegal. Kelley tells the terrifyingly true story of Julia Buccola Petta, a young Italian immigrant who tragically died during child birth. But when her body was exhumed years later, what onlookers found was truly shocking. Beware of freshly poured patios and take control of your life (or don't) because we're wining about herstory!

  • Ep280. Barrel Hooping Beasley & Fell Into Place
    First, Kelley wines about Maria E. Beasley, an inventor who revolutionized the barrel industry (without access to barrelsdirect.com)! She went on to make inventions that touched many lives, including those on the Titanic. Then, Emily wines about Betty Lou Oliver who had the most unfortunate (or fortunate, depending on how you look at it) last day of work imaginable, but lived to tell the tale. Don't overdo the barrel decor and beware wolf puppy stench, because we're wining about herstory! Join the Funerary Cult: https://www.patreon.com/winingaboutherstory

  • Ep277. The Mulan of Obstetrics & The Shark Lady
    This week, the ladies are revisiting aquatic quadrilogies, gushing over atrocities, and bitching about port (never forget) while wining about two amazing ladies! First, Kelley wines about Agnodice, a obstetrician in ancient Athens who had to disguise herself as a man to practice medicine. But when she became too popular with her female patients and was accused of sleeping with them by bitter male docs, she had to go full-frontal for her freedom. Then, Emily covers Eugenie 'Genie' Clark, a marine biologist who ran her own lab, had old-money super fans, and swam with sharks.

Aileen Riggin took to swimming like a fish to water and did more at 14-years-old than most have at 80-years-old. Then she went on to do more than most 80-year-olds do at 90!
