Unruly Figures Valorie Clark
-
- Storia
This is about the rebels.
This is about the ne’er-do-wells.
This is about the mutineers, the agitators, the subversives.
Unruly Figures is a celebration of history’s biggest rule-breakers.
Twice a month, I’m going to dive into the life and times of the greatest rebels the world has known. I will talk about their lives, the society they lived in, the decisions they made, and how their refusal to play by the rules changed the world.
Join me as I nerd out and get inspired by history’s favorite risk-takers. Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/unruly-figures/support
