🚨 New episode alert! And this one is for the bookish and the goth alike. Of course, we`re talking about the one and only mother of a movement: Mary Shelley. ⁠
⁠
🪦 Mary was born to a literary family. Her mother was the SCANDALOUS feminist author, Mary Wollstonecraft and her father was a revolutionary himself. She was raised to go against the norm and push the envelope. ⁠
⁠
🪦 When she was around 16 she met and ran away with 🙄 Percy Shelley 🙄 For better or worse this man changed her life and tho we don`t love him, she sure did. ⁠
⁠
🪦 Did she lose her virginity on her mother`s grave? All we`ll say is that she never denied it. So...you may be goth. But you`ll never be THIS GOTH. ⁠
⁠
🪦 When Mary was only 18 she created a genre and a story that is still being told, retold and adapted and STILL WINNING AWARDS AS OF THIS LAST WEEK. Of course we`re talking about Frankenstein (Hello, Jacob Elordi) ⁠
⁠
This episode is out now, wherever you get your pods. If you`d prefer to watch than listen-- head to our Patreon! 🥂👻 Cheers spooky bitches ...

Happy Birthday to Madame de Pompadour! Born on this day in 1721 in Paris, France⁠
⁠
👑 She started life as Jeanne-Antoinette Poisson, aka Jeannie Fish ⁠
⁠
🔮 As a child, Jeannie’s mom took her to a fortune teller, who predicted she’d one day be the mistress of the king. And let’s just say… they took that prophecy very seriously ⁠
⁠
💃 Despite being married, Jeannie caught King Louis XV’s eye and was officially recognized as his mistress at a royal ball where she showed up dressed as Diana the Huntress. Iconic.⁠
⁠
👑 While their romantic relationship only lasted a few years, Madame de Pompadour remained the king’s closest friend and political confidante for the rest of her life. ⁠
⁠
🥂 Listen to her episode now on @spotifypodcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Link in bio, y’all!⁠

2025 was A YEAR, y`all. And honestly? One of the things that got us through was the ✨community✨ and the creators who made us laugh, cry and think. So we wanted to shout out some creators who fed our brains, fueled our chaos, and made feminist history / culture feel ALIVE this year.⁠

🍸️@rightanswersmostly— because history is just gossip (I really need that hat) ⁠
⁠
🍸️ @vulgarhistorypod — You know that meme of all the spidermen pointing at each other? That`s what it feels like listening to Vulgar History as Queens Podcast sometimes. #soulmates ⁠
⁠
🍸️ @laurencella — if my history teacher had been like Lauren instead of a football coach who just rolled in the TV cart… I’d have a PhD by now. xoxo⁠
⁠
🍸️ @redactedhistory_ — he storytelling? the production? the DRAMA?? A masterclass in narrative history. ⁠
⁠
🍸️ @itslikehistory — if meme culture + history TikTok had a brilliant baby.⁠
⁠
🍸️ @hothistoryclub — Ainslie serves museum girl magic with actual citations. “Hot History” smart, funny. Our love language.⁠
⁠
🍸️ @sisterswhowatch — Ok, not history, but we just like their vibe and enjoyed going on discussing Gladiator with them so much!! We think you`ll love them. ⁠
⁠
🍸️ @historical.homos — queer history that feels like being at brunch with your smartest friend.⁠
