We don’t cover women in chronological order, we cover them in no order. We’re zipping all over time and continents like a TARDIS set to RANDOM: Ancient Rome to late 1800s Poland then pretty soon we’re in 1600s Africa. But we do appreciate that some people would like to listen to our show in chronological order and thanks to our amazingly organized friend, Sarah Frawley, they can.
2021 update: We weren’t great at keeping this list current with our episodes, so a very kind and organized listener, Nancy G. Rosoff, took pity on us and made this fancy spreadsheet with the hopes of keeping it updated. If she can’t…well, she’s in very good company. You can find this at: History Chicks Chronology. Thanks so much, Nancy!!
