Welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD! The podcast for all things strange and unusual, girly & ghoulish, frightningly feminist, Double X Chromosomed & everything in between!
Everytime we get together we chat about something WEIRD and this week we get to do that with one of our all time favorite recurring guests. Your Weird Report cohost AMY HANSELMANN is here to rage against the man-chine with us!
Oh yes it's LADIES NIGHT here on the weird cast and we're looking at some historical women who SHOULD be mega famous but instead are lucky to even be footnotes in our history books. Why? BECAUSE THE PATRIARCHY.
Lauren starts us off with ANNIE JUMP CANNON - an American astronomer who catalogued over 350,000 stars and whose work was instrumental in the development of the stellar classification system that we still use today! A member of the Harvard Computers, a suffragette and a member of the National Women's Party-- Annie was a CHAMP
Next up Amy guides us through the many lives of MARION STOKES- a television producer, businesswoman, MACINTOSH investor, civil rights activist, librarian and archivist who yeah, sure, may have had an obsession that got out of control when she started recording and archiving hundreds of THOUSANDS of hours of television news footage spanning over 35 years and taking up several apartments worth of space...... but we love her for it.
And Ashley brings us home with the story of the FORTY ELEPHANTS - an all-female London crime syndicate who terrorized the UK for multiple centuries specializing in SHOPLIFTING. They used the class and sex stereotypes of their day to their advantage, sewing secret compartments into their layers and layers of clothing, crossdressing, manipulating, blackmailing and even full on mugging to steal millions of dollars worth of goods from THE MAN.
Join us in celebrating these incredible women from history's pass who all left their mark on our world, as faded as it may be. We salute you, ladies!
