    Episode 355: Hoes of History: Susan Cabot

    In this episode, we explore the dramatic and tragic life of Susan Cabot, born Harriet Pearl Shapiro in 1927. From a childhood marked by loss and foster care in the Bronx to her rise as a Hollywood actress in Westerns and cult B-movies like Sorority Girl and The Wasp Woman, Susan's story is one of ambition, resilience, and hidden struggles. Behind the screen, she navigated secret relationships—including an alleged long-term affair with King Hussein of Jordan—motherhood, and battles with mental health. Tragically, in 1986, her only son, struggling with drug addiction, fatally stabbed her during a violent altercation at her Los Angeles home, ending her life at 58.

In this episode, we explore Blanche's journey from a preacher's daughter to a reluctant fugitive, tracing how love and loyalty pulled her into one of America's most infamous crime sprees.

    Episode 353: Hoes of History: Jane Goodall

    Before she was the world's most famous primatologist, Jane Goodall was a curious young girl who dreamed of living among animals in Africa. In this episode, we follow her extraordinary journey—from a childhood fascination with nature in wartime England to the groundbreaking discoveries she made in Tanzania's Gombe Stream National Park. Learn how Jane's patience and empathy shattered scientific norms when she observed chimpanzees using tools, proving humanity's deep connection to the animal world. We'll explore her lifelong mission to protect wildlife, her transition from researcher to global advocate, and the legacy she continues to build through the Jane Goodall Institute and her Roots & Shoots program.

    Episode 352: Hoes of History: Audrey Munson

    Before Marilyn Monroe or Cindy Crawford, there was Audrey Munson — the original American muse. In the early 1900s, her face and figure inspired hundreds of statues across New York City and beyond. She was celebrated as "Miss Manhattan," immortalized in marble and bronze, and became the first woman to appear fully nude in an American film. But behind the fame was a haunting story of exploitation, scandal, and tragedy. In this episode, we uncover how the woman who embodied beauty and art became forgotten by history — living her final decades in an asylum, her legacy hidden in plain sight on city streets.

    Episode 350: Hoes of History: Sarah Bickford

    Sarah Gammon Bickford was the first Black woman in the United States to own a public utility. Born into slavery in Tennessee in 1852, Sarah's early life was marked by hardship, resilience, and a determination to carve out her own destiny. After emancipation, she moved west to Virginia City, Montana—where she reinvented herself in a place few African American women dared to go. Sarah's story is one of reinvention and quiet revolution. From running a boarding house and candy store to taking ownership of Virginia City's water company, she became a respected entrepreneur in a male-dominated frontier town. Along the way, she raised a family, overcame personal losses, and turned the hot springs and waterworks into symbols of both survival and success.
