Fierce Females of History

Winter solstice is less than a month away, and what better way to celebrate our mid-season break than with a tale of a witch: one of the earliest symbols of feminism. Today, hear the story of Sydney artist, counterculturist and occultist Rosaleen Norton. Norton defied the norms of 1950s Australia to create revolutionary art and push others to expand their views of the world. In this episode, you’ll learn about Norton’s unusual upbringing, how she used trances and sex magic to commune with higher beings and astral project, the meaning behind her distinctive artworks, and how she came to be known as the witch of Kings Cross. Enjoy.***Just a warning, some episodes discuss sensitive or explicit content.

In Hollywood, if you’re a woman older than 55, you’re practically invisible.It’s a symptom of a broader societal problem, but in 1985, a show debuted starring three women, all over the age of 60. The Golden Girls became a roaring success and helped redefine the role of older women in Hollywood. While Bea Arthur’s career hit new heights with the series, her love of storytelling and theatre began much earlier. In this episode you’ll learn about Bea’s fight for success, how she discovered her trademark sense of humour and how her legacy lives on today. Listen in.***Just a warning, some episodes discuss sensitive or explicit content.

Ever scared you’re the less hot sibling? We don’t have that problem, but we can sympathise because even though we’re stunning specimens, we do still have hearts. However, Anastasia Romanov, Russian princess, did. Poor dear was described as “less ethereal” than her sisters. But that didn’t stop her from going on to become one of the most famous conspiracies of all time. It’s the question that has haunted the world for more than one hundred years: did Princess Anastasia survive the Russian Revolution? In this episode, find out about Anastasia’s upbringing, why (the fictional) Dimitri is the sexiest animated character ever, and about the mysterious Anna Anderson who may or may have not been the princess herself. Until then, dasvidaniya. P.S. Brief content warning on this one, the Romanov family did not have a pretty end.***Just a warning, some episodes discuss sensitive or explicit content.

Florence Violet McKenzie: Radio revolutionary Sometimes in life you’re going to encounter some people who are just clowns. And not just clowns, but dumb clowns.Often, ladies, these will be men, as our girl Florence Violet McKenzie would tell you. She navigated an industry that was -at the time - nearly defined by these gentlemen’s breathtaking stupidity and ended up transforming it into the radio and electrical engineering sector it is today. In this episode you’ll hear about how Violet took on a male-dominated industry and made it her own, how she supported the war effort in a major way, taught an entire generation of aviators to radio and kept a sunny disposition even while facing some pretty classic misogyny. And you’ll hear about Talissa’s deep-seated hatred for hiking. Tune in.

How would you feel if you lived a nice life but then historians hundreds of years later questioned whether you even existed? You’d be dead, but we imagine you’d still be fairly pissed off. That’s what happened to Queen Seondeok of Silla’s sister. Luckily for Seondeok, she did more than enough to have her name etched in the annals of Korean history. In this episode you’ll learn about how Seondeok led a cultural revolution through Silla, set hearts ablaze - literally, used frogs to sniff out enemy armies and generally just did the most during her time on earth. She’s a lot, and we love her for it. Seondeok of Silla, we’re coming for you.*******************Just a warning, some episodes discuss sensitive or explicit content.

What exactly is a fierce female? It’s something we’ve been discussing a lot among ourselves recently. Is it someone who only does good? Someone who is monumentally brave? A woman ahead of her time? Or is she someone like Margaret Sanger, who revolutionised the birth control movement in America but was also a supporter of deeply disturbing beliefs. In this episode, we look at a woman who achieved great things, but who also advocated for terrible things. You’ll hear about how Margaret began fighting for women’s reproductive rights, how she opened the first birth control clinic in the USA, how she campaigned as a eugenicist, and the legacy she leaves today.*******************Just a warning, some episodes discuss sensitive or explicit content.

Diana Spencer You might not think you have much in common with a princess of the English monarchy, but if you’ve ever had a guinea pig AND you’ve trained that guinea pig to do tricks, you would be wrong. And if your wedding was televised and watched by millions of people around the world.... actually, sorry, that’s not relatable at all, Diana. In our first episode of 2021, we are heading to the 1980s to meet a little lady you might know as Princess Di. In this episode you will hear about the unusual start to her relationship with Charles, how she rebelled within the confines of The Firm and proved a powerful advocate for human rights, and the events leading up to that fateful night in Paris. So fish out your gloves, pop on your pearls and practice your elocution. We’re visiting Buckingham Palace, baby.****************Just a warning, some episodes discuss sensitive or explicit content.

Irena Sendler: Warsaw Rescuer It’s fair to say WWII and the Holocaust is one of the darkest eras in global history. But, as so often happens, the worst times can also bring out the best in some.Take Irena Sendler, for example.

She saved 2,500 people and thought it was normal.
