I have learned about so many truly great women from Katie and Olivia. From Frances Perkins to Genghis Khan’s daughters to The Great Sandwina, there are women throughout history who are brought to light and I love knowing who they were!

What’sHerName Podcast is an absolute gem! Hosts Olivia Meikle and Dr. Katie Nelson bring history to life by uncovering the fascinating stories of women who have been overlooked or forgotten. Their storytelling is both engaging and insightful, weaving expert interviews into vivid, nuanced biographies that captivate from start to finish. Each episode is a journey into the lives of remarkable women, filled with humor, thought-provoking insights, and a deep respect for historical accuracy. Whether you’re a history buff or just love a good story, What’sHerName is a must-listen. The production quality is top-notch, and the passion of the hosts shines through in every episode. Highly recommend! 🎧✨

A well researched podcast marred by the useless cohost who chimes in HMMM or WOAHHHHH every other sentence and literally adds zero other value. Please omit this person it’s so distracting and amateur.

I go back and forth about WhatsHerName. The hosts’ verbal mannerisms always annoy me, but I keep listening to be inspired and educated about forgotten and almost forgotten women. If some of the assumptions and conclusions strike me as questionable, no matter—we can all bring our own critical perspectives along for the ride and have a good think about what we hear. In the end, WHN is well worth my time.
