Episodes
Episode 24: Well Behaved Women and Early Christianity
January 04, 2021 02:38 - 27 minutes - 25.6 MBThis week, Kelsie and Brooke discuss how women who were well behaved rarely made history-- and then discussed how women joined the early Christian church in big numbers, and examined two women who defied the odds during early Christianity. Perpetua was a Christian martyr who gave her life for the faith before Rome adopted Christianity. Hypatia by contrast, lost her life to a Christian mob that expelled the Jews and Pagans in Alexandria. Their stories are unbelievable and show the centrality ...
Episode 23: Hiding and Jackie O
December 28, 2020 05:00 - 30 minutes - 27.7 MBThis week, Kelsie sat down with Tina Cassidy to talk about how the stories of even iconic women like Jackie Kennedy Onassis go untold in history class. Brooke of course thought this was ridiculous. Of course, you can find lessons about it on our website. Tina Cassidy writes about women and culture. In addition to Mr. President, How Long Must We Wait? Alice Paul, Woodrow Wilson and the Fight for the Right to Vote, she is the author of Birth: The Surprising History of How We Are Born; and Jac...
Episode 22: Sarah, Mary, and Virginity
December 21, 2020 13:48 - 42 minutes - 38.7 MBThis week, Kelsie and Brooke celebrate the holidays by discussing the historic implications of the stories of Sarah and Mary-- two women over shadowed in the religious traditions by the men, but central in the stories. Their stories layout the views of God's relationship with women, women's role, and in the case of Mary, reveal an obsession with female virginity.

December 14, 2020 04:00 - 47 minutes - 43.2 MBThis week, Kelsie sat down with The First Ladies Man, Andrew Och, to talk about the importance of the women who served in what he says, "is one of the most powerful and influential unelected and unpaid women in the world.

Episode 20: Mrs. So-and-so, Mrs. Eaton, and the Trail of Tears
December 07, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 70.3 MBIn this episode, Kelsie and Brooke discuss Andrew Jackson and the women who revolved around his presidency. We start by talking about how difficult it is to track women, especially women who marry through historical documents and time because their names change so much. We then examine the elections of 1824, 1828, and 1832 to understand the nastiness of those elections and how Jackson's wife and mother were regular targets. Jackson's first cabinet dissolved due to a scandal that revolved aro...
Episode 19: Feminist Pedagogy and the Triangle Fire
November 30, 2020 05:00 - 1 hour - 63.7 MBThis week Kelsie and Brooke are talking about Feminist Pedagogy (Socratic Seminars) and The Triangle Fire. An alternate title could be circles and triangles... but it wouldn't make sense until you heard us out. Feminist teaching is where you break down structural and stigma-related barriers to all student participation and performance-- in this case to get more women into the field. We then do a deep dive into the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire in New York and it's long term labor and...
Episode 18: Thanksgiving and Other Places Women were Barred from
November 23, 2020 05:00 - 42 minutes - 38.8 MBThis week, Kelsie and Brooke are talking about the history of the Thanksgiving Holiday, a women's holiday-- bet they didn't teach that to you in school! In the second half we talk about other places women were barred from in public life... like the baseball stadium.

Episode 17: Blanks and Goddess Worship
November 16, 2020 16:00 - 52 minutes - 48.1 MBThis week we are talking about how huge portions of women's history are hard to know because so much is left blank. The biggest blank in all history is pre-history... and many women historians have tried to stake a claim there... suggesting that perhaps there was a time when women reigned supreme. Some argue that there was once a Great Goddess, worshipped above all gods. Obviously, this is disputed. So, as Brooke says, let's get into this. Support our work at www.patreon.com/remedialherstor...
Episode 16: Education and Nuns
November 09, 2020 05:00 - 42 minutes - 39.1 MBBrooke and Kelsie are talking about the cycle of his-story and how the teacher education system fails to require-- at any stage-- women's history (or diverse history of any kind), so how are teachers supposed to be the stop gate? Then we talk about the place in European history where women could get educated, the nunnery.

September 28, 2020 04:00 - 39 minutes - 35.9 MBIn this episode Kelsie and Brooke celebrate 10 episodes, the life of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and her fight for equal treatment under law. Further, they talk about how her case is just another example of calling human rights the dirty f-word, "feminist." Then we correct the narrative that "feminists are making up history to include more women" In reality, like with the warriors who fought against ancient Rome-- women were always there.
