Join Rev. Emily E. Ewing (they) and Rev. Kay Rohloff (she) to explore new and nerdy connections to the scripture for the 2nd Sunday after Pentecost, also known as Lectionary 10 or Proper 5, which falls on June 11th this year, including our deep dive into menstruation! 




The scripture we refer to for this episode can be found here.  Check out the Museum of Menstruation for more!  Learn more about doctor’s historical beliefs about periods.  Check out this article about amazing activists in Pakistan that we mentioned.  For more on menstruation while incarcerated, check out this Time Magazine article or the second article in the Period Project Series from Ms. Magazine.  Check out this incredible song about Sally Ride’s trip to space and the accompanying tampons provided by literal rocket scientists.  Check out this Abby Cox video on historical menstrual “rags”.  If you are worried (or curious) about using the bathroom in long historical skirts, check out this video from PriorAttire.




We also mentioned our Easter 4B episode from our first season with a deep dive into prison abolition with Rev. Elle Dowd.
