    Althea Gibson Part 2
    Mar 27 2024

She built many bridges and fought the good fight in many fields of endeavor - we only wish that her admirers had made sure that Althea realized during her lifetime what an impact she had made on the world.

One of my favorite podcasts

Such a great way to learn about women in history. I love listening to this while I'm working.

These ladies are the bomb!

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.

Brilliant

Favorite podcast I've come across. Entertaining and educational. I'm hooked. Pleasant to listen too and just so much information without it feeling like a classroom lecture.

Great and Engaging

I've been following this podcast for years and have never missed a single episode since my first listen, which was the original Queen Lili'oukalani episode. Nice to see things come full circle. The narrators do a great job of keeping you interested throughout the episode, and I cannot tell just how much I have learned from simply listening to the two talking and nerding out about history (especially about women in history whose stories don't receive enough attention or have been re-written by men) like I do.

What can I say- I am addicted to the History Chicks

Witty, interesting stories of real women .

I have listened with great interest to all of the stories of these interesting remarkable famous and infamous women throughout the ages.
The biggest takeaway is the courage of these women. Truth is way,way,more interesting than fiction. I can’t wait to meet Susan and Beckett in about a week to thank them!!

Well researched history!

I love this podcast. The individual episodes are long but do very complete coverage of the subject. I listen all the time.
