  • Grandma Moses
    Jan 30 2026
    Grandma Moses spent most of her life living on family farms in upstate New York, raising a large family and running a household. She was known in her neighborhood for her award-winning preserves and pickles... not her embroidered artwork! It wasn’t until her late seventies, when arthritis made needlework too painful, that she rediscovered her childhood love of painting and created the style that would make her famous. Her nostalgic scenes of rural life caught the eye of collectors, then museums, then the world, turning her into an international art sensation in her eighties and nineties. Grandma Moses kept painting until just before her death at 101, leaving behind a body of work that reshaped how Americans think about creativity, aging, and the history of our country.

  • Ona Judge, 2026
    Jan 23 2026
    Ona Judge defied one of the most revered historical figures in America in order to escape the institution of slavery. Though she spent the rest of her life as a fugitive, she managed to direct her own existence on her own terms; answering to no one, free at last. This episode was recorded just before our 2023 Washington D.C. Field Trip where we were able to visit Mount Vernon and pay our respects at the African American Burial Ground and Memorial.

  • Mother Jones
    Jan 15 2026
    Mother Jones lived one of the most dramatic second acts in American history. Though her early life was shaped by poverty, immigration, and repeated personal tragedies, she reinvented herself in middle age as a warrior for justice. She was a fearless labor organizer - an electrifying speaker who rallied coal miners, steelworkers, railroad shopmen, and exploited children to stand up for their rights. She once earned the label “The Most Dangerous Woman in America” for standing firm against powerful corporate and government pressures. Her work can still be felt in the labor protections, organizing strategies, and economic justice movements around the world. Mother Jones proved that one single, relentless voice... armed with purpose, strategic fury, and above all stamina - could shake the foundations of society. Learn more about your ad choices.

It’s like listening to a friend tell a story, except with researched details. I went to see the musical “Six” and before I went I listened to the History Chicks podcasts on Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn and the “other four wives”. It really filled in the background details in the musical (which was fantastic).

History with a sense of humor.

These ladies are the bomb!

I introduced myself to the History Chicks with their coverage of Francis Perkins. I'd never heard of her and I was hooked. I have now listened to every episode. I love this podcast because they've introduced me to great and/or infamous women, their lives, their struggles, their failures and their successes. The History Chicks humanize these ladies. Listening to a podcast is like having an intellectual conversation with great friends. And let's face it, given where we are in living History, we need some reminders that we've been down before, but we can still do great things with these women as our guides. Sometimes you'll hear about things we shouldn't aspire to, but avoid. But more often, I find inspiration in my History Chicks journeys. My 12 year old daughter and I (and even my rooster) dream of the day we can go on a field trip! Listen and learn.

friends bring women's history to life
