  • Anne-Josèphe Théroigne de Méricourt (with Claire Mead)
    Apr 23 2025
    Anne-Josèphe Théroigne de Méricourt was one of the most notorious people in the French Revolution. She arrived in Paris ready for revolution, used her theatrical experience to design unforgettable outfits, and did her best to fight for women's rights (with a sword by her side). We're joined by Claire Mead to talk about the gender shenanigans of Théroigne's saga, and why she deserved much better.

  • Canadian History Minute(s): Esther Brandeau aka Jacques La Fargue
    Apr 11 2025
    Esther Brandeau was a Jewish teen from France who (in true Catalina/Antonio de Erauso style) dressed in boy's clothes, chose a very fun pseudonym, and got a variety of jobs on ships. This is how they became the first Jewish person to set foot in Canada (though they didn't stay long). Image is from the cover of Sharon E. McKay's novel Esther (artist unknown).
