      <title>Chevalière d’Éon: The Transgender Spy</title>
      <description>In 18th-century France, Chevalière d’Éon became famous as a brilliant spy and diplomat- and one of the first openly transgender figures in European history. Throughout their life, it was unknown if they were a man or a woman, living boldly between identities and loyalties, carrying out secret missions for both France and England.

      <title> Frances Glessner Lee: The Mother of Forensic Science </title>
      <description>Imagine a dollhouse, but amongst the miniature furniture and doors, you find…a murder scene. Frances Glessner Lee- often referred to as the “Mother of Forensic Science” - created tiny crime scenes known as the Nutshell studies, to revolutionize the way detectives investigated real cases. In this episode, we uncover how a woman from Chicago’s elite society transformed her privilege and passion into a legacy that shaped modern forensic science.

      <title>Mary Anning: The Fossil Hunter of the Jurassic Coast</title>
      <description>In the early 19th century, most people thought extinction was impossible - if no new creatures appeared, how could any have ever vanished? Mary Anning, a young fossil hunter from Lyme Regis, proved them wrong with discoveries that rewrote Earth’s history. Living on the Jurassic Coast, she became the first to uncover the first complete skeleton of an extinct marine reptile, changing paleontology forever.

      <title>Part 2: How Nellie Bly Circumnavigated the Globe</title>
      <description>We’re back with Part 2 of our Nellie Bly series!

Last week, we shared how Nellie went undercover in an asylum to expose the abuse and neglect happening behind closed doors. Her reporting shocked the nation and sparked real reform.

This week, we follow her next bold chapter - the story of how she circumnavigated the globe. In 1889, Nellie set off on a solo journey to beat Jules Verne’s fictional Around the World in 80 Days. With just a single satchel, she crossed oceans, continents, and countless cultural boundaries and ended up making history.

      <title>Chipeta: Queen of the Utes</title>
      <description>1848 marked the start of a wave of westward expansion that would forever change the American frontier and the lives of the Native peoples who called it home. Amid this upheaval rose Chipeta- a warrior for peace, a skilled diplomat and the soon-to-be voice of the Uncompahgre tribe. Married to Chief Ouray, Chipeta played a vital role in negotiations between Native nations and the U.S. government- helping to bridge the two worlds, often standing as the only woman at the table. This episode tells the story of her strength and compassion amongst the heartbreak, and explains why she will forever be honored as “Queen of the Utes”

      <title>Neerja Bhanot: The Hero of Pan Am Flight 73</title>
      <description>In 1986, over 350 passengers on board Pan Am Flight 73 were faced with a traveller’s worst nightmare… their plane was hijacked. At just 22 years old, head flight attendant, Neerja Bhanot, stepped up to lead the cabin crew- making decisions that would come to define one of the most heroic responses in aviation history. This episode explores the story of Neerja and the brave flight attendants who risked their lives to protect the lives of strangers in the face of terror.

      <title>Belle Gunness: Murder Through Love Letters</title>
      <description>She was a loving mother, a grieving widow–and one of America’s most prolific female serial killers. In the 19th century, Norwegian immigrant Belle Gunness lured wealthy suitors to her Indiana farmhouse through newspaper ads promising love, fortune, and a fresh start—only for them to strangely disappear. What investigators discovered when they visited her home would leave behind one of the most chilling mysteries in American true crime history.

      <title>The Courageous Women in Pink</title>
      <description>In the heartland of rural India, 400,000 women dressed in pink saris have come together to fight domestic abuse, caste discrimination, and political corruption. Founded by Sampat Pal Devi, the “Gulabi Gang” carries bamboo sticks—not to incite violence, but to demand accountability where institutions have failed. In a society that often silences women and the marginalized, the gang has found power in numbers, reminding us all that when women stand together, they stand stronger.

      <title>The Mother of Science Fiction: Inventing Frankenstein</title>
      <description>What began as a vivid dream on a stormy night during the “Year Without a Summer,” after a round of German ghost stories by the fire, would go on to spark the birth of science fiction. In this episode, we will explore Mary Shelley’s journey from her childhood to becoming the author of Frankenstein, and how her imagination–and pain–brought a creature to life that still resonates with us so deeply today.

      <title>The Most Notorious Shoplifters in British History</title>
      <description>In the filthy streets of Victorian South London, a group of women from Elephant and Castle pulled off the largest and most sophisticated shoplifting operation in British history. Known as the Forty Elephants, these working-class women built a tightly run underground network—strategic, stealthy, and nearly untouchable. Targeting high-end department stores, they outsmarted police, intimidated male gangs and pulled off flawless heists again and again.

      <title>The Most Feared Pirate of the South China Sea</title>
      <description>It began in the crowded harbors of Guangdong, where intelligent woman, Zheng Yi Sao, worked aboard a floating brothel. Through strategy, negotiation and an unshakable understanding of power, she went on to become the leader of 70,000 pirates, command hundreds of ships and take control over trade in the South China Sea—making her one of the most feared pirates ever recorded in history.

      <title>Fighting Breast Cancer in Antarctica </title>
      <description>In 1999, Dr. Jerri Nielsen landed her dream job at the South Pole, only to face a life-threatening diagnosis when she discovered a lump in her breast. Trapped in the frozen wilderness with no immediate access to medical help, she and her crew had to rely on their resourcefulness and courage to survive in one of the most extreme and isolated places on earth. This is a story of extraordinary determination, community, and the power of human resilience when the odds seem unbeatable.

      <title>The Woman Who Changed The Boston Marathon</title>
      <description>In 1967, photos of a furious race official lunging at a woman mid-stride were plastered across the front pages of newspapers worldwide. That woman was Kathrine Switzer— the first woman to officially run the Boston Marathon despite being told it was impossible. What began as a personal challenge soon became a global reckoning, sparking a pivotal moment in the fight for gender equality in sports.

      <title>The Woman Who Told The Truth About Sex</title>
      <description>In the 1970s and 80s, Shere Hite believed that understanding sexuality meant listening—really listening—to people’s experiences. Her anonymous surveys offered women a rare space for honesty and transformed the conversations around sex at the time. In this episode, we explore Shere’s quiet revolution, the controversy it sparked, and her lasting impact on how we think about intimacy and identity today.

      <title>The Woman Who Spoke To Animals</title>
      <description>Deep in Europe’s oldest forest once lived a witch… or at least that’s what people called her. Simona Kossak, defined by her anything-but-ordinary life, was a biologist and Professor of Forest Sciences who dedicated herself to protecting the Białowieża Forest’s fragile ecosystem. Living in a remote cabin surrounded by her wild companions, she was as fierce in her activism as in her love for nature, leaving a lasting legacy on both science and conservation.
