Ep 198 — Women's History Month | Orlando
It's Women's History Month! We first talk about a few women in history who dared to stand out because representation matters. These are women in science, medicine, and even espionage who did amazing things to further scientific advances, to help heal people, etc and they deserve to be recognized. For the media segment, we talk about the 1993 movie Orlando, starring the amazing Tilda Swinton. Following that, we close out with happy news about Dolly Parton and children's books.
