<p>Women's history doesn't have be boring or depressing. I tell the stories of extraordinary women in history, including queens, slaves, spies, scientists, artists, wives, mothers, and more. But most women didn't leave us enough material for a biography, so I also tell you what it was like to be an ordinary woman, including what they wore, how they did housework, how they worked, and how they played.</p><p>In short, what were the women doing all that time while men were writing the standard history books? This podcast will tell you what those history books forgot to mention.</p>
