  • When Alexander the Great defeated Thebes in 335 CE him and his soldiers decimated the city - killing 6,000 Thebans and enslaving over 30,000. In the process, a drunk, disorderly captain forces his way into Timoclea's home, sexually assaults her, and attempts to rob her of her wealthy property. But clever Timoclea talks this drunk ahole into retiring her gold from an empty well, and when he goes to fetch it, she throw a boatload of big rocks down into the well - possibly by herself, possibly aided by her maids, but either way, she stones that guy to death and when she's brought in front of Alexander to answer for her crime - her response elicits a shocking response from the up and coming most-powerful-man-on-earth.

    What does Alexander do? Moreover, who is this guy Plutarch and how did he even know Timoclea's story that happened 400 years prior? You'll have to listen to find out!

  • Did you know that one of the most popular American Board games of all time - MONOPOLY - was actually invented by a Broad?! That right! Lizzie Magie invented THE LANDLORD'S GAME to help teach the concept of Georgism to the masses, and even patented it in 1904, 30 years before the Monopoly patent was filed.

    As we dive down the rabbit hole we discover not only more about the incredible multi-hyphenate and radical feminist Lizzie was, but also how her beloved game fell into the hands of Charles Darrow, and ultimately was purchased by the then-struggling Parker Brothers. Did Lizzie ever receive compensation or credit for her invention? You'll have to listen to find out!

  • While history marks the first Thanksgiving as being in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1621, it turns out that when Christopher Columbus (and his *sshole brother, Bartholomew) first land in modern-day Haiti in 1492, they were warmly welcomed and assisted in a similar fashion by today's Broad, Anacaona!

    A powerhouse leader of the Taino people, Anacaona led her people NOT into war, as so many neighboring tribes had done, but with a true matriarchal vision of peace and prosperity for all, she tried to erase division between the Spanish and the Taino through intermarriage, which was a remarkably effective strategy...until Nicolas de Ovando arrives from Spain as the new Governor.

  • Giulia Tofana is known for inventing the deadly (and untraceable) poison known as Aqua Tofana, which was the most feared cause of death by men living in Renaissance Italy. She exclusively sold her poisons to women trapped in abusive or loveless marriages, freeing them from their servitude and/or existence as their husbands' property.

  • In our first episode post-election Sara talks about her mindset moving forward post-election. While many folks discuss what went wrong, voter sabotage, and many other "could be's", Sara encourages everyone to focus on what we can do in our everyday lives to stand up for what we believe in. Whether that's signing petitions and protesting, or changing where you shop, it's a mistake to think that you are helpless right now.

  • This week, we revisit Chloe Skye's episode on Norma McCorvey, or as you might know her: "Jane Roe" of the Roe v Wade case. We'll tell you right now - it's probably NOT the story you were expecting to hear.

    After enduring a difficult childhood in Texas, Norma's young adulthood doesn't fair much better, and ultimately leads to her landmark court case Roe v Wade. But what happens after the Supreme Court decision that made abortion legal & protected under US Federal law? Does Norma carry her pregnancy to term? Does she join the ranks of women's rights activists? Does she become a beacon of hope for American women seeking the help she couldn't get in Texas?

    The answers are probably not what you think (and hope), that they are, making her a truly fascinating Broad You Should Know.

  • Beatrix Leslie is an 84-year-old midwife living just outside Edinburgh, Scotland in 1661, which happened to be a very bad period of time to be a disliked elderly woman in the community because it was smack dab in the middle of the Great Scottish Witch Trials of 1661-1662.

    During a span of literally 16 MONTHS over 660 people were publicly accused of witchcraft in that neck of the woods, and Beatrix, unfortunately, was one of them. Listen now to learn exactly what she was accused of, and how the way her trial went down made it utterly impossible for true justice to be rendered. (HINT: John Kincaid is one of the biggest *ssholes of all time).

    You're also going to learn a whole lot about the Scottish Witch Trials - how they became the some of the largest, most deadly witch trials in human history, and how the government (who caused this fiasco in the first place) was able to break the witch fever that had such an insane hold on the region.

  • Galina Brok-Belsova, who just died this past August, was the very last known member Night Witches - the Russian female aviation regiments that helped to turn the tide of World War II. Certainly some of the bravest women we've ever covered on the podcast, the Night Witches struck fear into the hearts of German soldiers - and Galina was no exception. Enlisting at 16 and flying her first combat mission at 18, Galina would end up flying 36 combat missions and receiving the Order of Lenin and a personal thank you note from Stalin himself.

    Listen now to hear more of Galina's story!

  • It's spooky season once more and the perfect time to revisit the most well-known incident of witch hysteria in North America - the Salem Witch Trials! While many of you may be familiar with the story from your history classes and Arthur Miller's popular play-turned-Daniel-Day-Lewis-Winona-Ryder-movie The Crucible, Sara's research turns up some VERY interesting truths about the motivations of the the girls and their parents - who (not surprisingly) influenced, puppetered and corroborated the "accuser girls'" testimony.

    The second half of the episode we look more closely at the 13 individual women who were accused, tried, found guilty and were hanged for witchcraft at these trials; Who they were, why they were persecuted, and some of the specifics of their trials including the most ridiculous witness testimonies you could ever imagine.

    Buckle up for this episode chock-full of Puritan insanity and mind-blowing legal proceedings that almost make the current court system look good. Almost...

  • While last week we joyfully celebrated the inauguration of Mexico's first female President Claudia Sheinbaum (full BYSK episode on her coming soon!), the rest of the news in the past few months has been rife with stories of violence against women. From across the world, in India, Africa and Europe, to right here in our own backyards and even just blocks from Sara's apartment in Los Angeles. What gives?! Where does all this violence come from? And why? And how do we prevent it from happening?

    Sara explores these incredibly challenging questions in this, more somber than usual, Broad Opinion episode.

    CW: The news stories discussed in this episode include violence against women, including sexual assault and murder.

  • This week, guest Steven Townshend brings us Izumo no Okuni, the original creator of Japanese Kabuki Theatre! A humble countryside shrine maiden, Izumo, travels to Kyoto in the early 1600s to help raise money for her temple, but her entertainment skills blow the minds of her audiences, giving birth to one of the most spectacular styles of theatre in existence. Why, then, don't we know her name? And why don't we see women performing Kabuki today?? You'll have to listen to find out!

  • Born without arms or legs, from her youngest days Sarah Biffin was not content to sit around bemoaning her difficulties - she got right to work! Sarah taught herself to sew, use scissors and write letters using her mouth!

    She was so skilled, in fact, that when a sideshow owner Emmanuel Dukes, discovers her abilities, he quickly convinces her to join up with his traveling sideshow and is able to charge very high prices for passersby to stare with awe at "the astonishing curiosity”, “the limbless wonder” and “the 8th wonder”.

    Under Dukes' tutelage, Sarah dives into the world of painting and is so remarkably good at it, that soon they are selling her miniature portraits for three Guineas a pop! Sarah's massive talent eventually attracts local nobility and even the royal courts and she's able to build a notable artistic career.

    Her rise to fame and the rocky path that follow are almost as interesting as her origin store. Listen now to hear more about Sarah Biffin's incredible life and work.

  • This week, Sara brings us Mary Kenner! Coming from a family of inventors, Mary wasted no time and went to work on her own first invention at six years old. She invented throughout her life, and received her first US Patent in 1957 for the Sanitary Belt - a precursor to the sanitary napkin! To this day Mary still holds the record for the most US Patents awarded to an African American woman - FIVE!

  • Therese Oneill, author of the awesome book Unbecoming a Lady: The Forgotten Shrews and Sluts That Shaped America, joins Sara to discuss a Broad we have long been wanting to cover - the incomparable Elizabeth Packard!

    When Elizabeth's Reverend jerk of a husband has her committed to an insane asylum, (for disagreeing with his preaching, nonetheless!) Elizabeth bided her time patiently, working with Dr. McFarland on what she believed would be a path to quick release back to her family. However, the charade of the doctor soon became clear, and after losing her privileges, Elizabeth was relegated to the poor wing of the hospital where she witness atrocious patient treatment, even torture.

    After her eventual release, home imprisonment by husband and subsequent trial to prove her sanity, Elizabeth began a long journey not only to regain her family and rebuild her prospects (after said husband stole her every penny and moved the children far away), but she also began a new fight - for the rights of asylum patients, and the rights for women and their property under the law.

    Her story and her accomplishments are remarkable - listen now for her incredible story!

Not only does she succeed, she ends up writing some of the most renowned films of the 70s and 80s, and even winning an Oscar for her first feature script COMING HOME, but while the original script was entirely her own, she had to share that Oscar with two other writers.

    Listen now to find out how that film created a rift between her and Jane Fonda that would last a lifetime, and why much of her writing since has been credited under pseudonyms, and sometimes even uncredited!

  • Another light went out of the world this week when we lost lost Joan Davis. "Ms. Davis" was Sara's High School History Teacher and was, arguably, THE BROAD THAT STARTED IT ALL! That's right, this podcast might never have come to being if it weren't for Ms. Davis. Teaching outside that standard curriculum and armed with Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States: 1492-Present, Ms. Davis made a profound impact teaching Sara and all of her students the importance of exploring history OUTSIDE of the viewpoint of the victors, the winners and the oppressors. That version of the story is not the full version - to understand fully how and why things in this world happened the way they did, you must understand the whole picture. It's not glossy, not beautiful, and often very unpleasant, but it's one of the most important things we can do for ourselves and for the future.

    Thank you, Ms. Davis, for your incredible work as a public school teacher. Your impact will continue to be felt for many years to come, and Sara thanks you for all you did to bring history to life and transforming us all into history (and herstory) lovers.

  • Heather Pringle, author of the upcoming book The Northwomen: Untold Stories From the Other Half of the Viking World, brings us the incredible story of Gudrid the Well-Traveled! Gudrid was born into the Viking world which worshipped the old Norse Gods and their ways, but she was also born into a modern family that had adopted the hip new religion of the age: Christianity. This gave young Gudrid a unique ability to walk the line between the two religions, which would prove to be a giant stepping stone for Gudrid as she became the ultimate world traveler of her time.

    Traveling was not quick or easy, and helping establish the first known European settlement in North America was even harder, but Gudrid did it all in epic fashion, and when she was pregnant, too! She clinked glasses with Leif Erikson and many other legends of the time, but Gudrid and her adventures across the Atlantic and back, and then all the way eventually to Rome, became so renowned that she appears in not one, but TWO of the surviving Viking Sagas.

    Listen now to hear the story of this Viking Wonder Woman and her trips across the globe! Heather also brings us fascinating information about Viking women and culture, and the recent developments in archaeology that have uncovered a whole new understanding of what it meant to be a Viking woman in this time period. It's an episode you won't want to miss!

The past 8 years, though, her work has gone beyond the gymnastics floor and Simone has become a beacon of hope for abuse survivors and an advocate for mental wellness and self-care. She has changed the fabric and foundation of the sport - and not just gymnastics! All of athletics will never be the same because of her.

    How in the world did Simone Biles become Simone Biles - the GOAT gymnast and all-around human being? Her story is just as amazing and her collection of medals, and Michael Slefinger is here to tell you her whole story. Listen now!
