 A feminist women's history comedy podcast. We look at history through a feminist lens, focusing on the women often removed from the narrative.

    French Revolution: Radicals, part 6: The Secret Female Journalist
    May 21 2025
    Manon Roland was a super-smart bookworm who amazed those around her from an early age with her intelligence (and strong opinions). When the French Revolution kicked off, she sent letters from Lyons to Paris to keep people updated on the latest news. She also got on the wrong side of Robespierre, which didn't go well. — Preorder info for my book, Rebel of the Regency! — ⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for the Vulgar History mailing list!⁠⁠⁠⁠ — Get 15% off all the gorgeous jewellery and accessories at ⁠⁠⁠⁠common.era.com/vulgar⁠⁠⁠⁠ or go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠commonera.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ and use code VULGAR at checkout — Get Vulgar History merch at ⁠⁠⁠⁠vulgarhistory.com/store⁠⁠⁠⁠ (best for US shipping) and ⁠⁠⁠⁠vulgarhistory.redbubble.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ (better for international shipping) — ⁠⁠⁠⁠Support Vulgar History on Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠ — Vulgar History is an affiliate of Bookshop.org, which means that a small percentage of any books you click through and purchase will come back to Vulgar History as a commission. ⁠⁠⁠⁠Use this link to shop there and support Vulgar History.⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

    French Revolution: Radicals (part five): The Triple Agent
    May 14 2025
    Etta Palm d'Aelders was a Dutch woman so sexy that she got hired as a spy for three different countries (simultaneously). One of these countries was France, which is how she wound up in Paris during the French Revolution. — ⁠⁠⁠Sign up for the Vulgar History mailing list!⁠⁠⁠ — Get 15% off all the gorgeous jewellery and accessories at ⁠⁠⁠common.era.com/vulgar⁠⁠⁠ or go to ⁠⁠⁠commonera.com⁠⁠⁠ and use code VULGAR at checkout — Get Vulgar History merch at ⁠⁠⁠vulgarhistory.com/store⁠⁠⁠ (best for US shipping) and ⁠⁠⁠vulgarhistory.redbubble.com⁠⁠⁠ (better for international shipping) — ⁠⁠⁠Support Vulgar History on Patreon ⁠⁠⁠ — Vulgar History is an affiliate of Bookshop.org, which means that a small percentage of any books you click through and purchase will come back to Vulgar History as a commission. ⁠⁠⁠Use this link to shop there and support Vulgar History.⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

    Movie Discussion: Conclave (2024)
    May 9 2025
    To celebrate Pope Leo XIV, I pulled this out of the Patreon vault so everybody can enjoy our spoiler-filled discussion. Last year when the movie Conclave came out, Allison and I both went bananas. Little did we know, it would later be nominated for numerous Academy Awards, or that there would be an IRL conclave, or that the new Pope would be from Chicago WHERE ALLISON LIVES??? — ⁠⁠⁠Sign up for the Vulgar History mailing list!⁠⁠⁠ — Get 15% off all the gorgeous jewellery and accessories at ⁠⁠⁠common.era.com/vulgar⁠⁠⁠ or go to ⁠⁠⁠commonera.com⁠⁠⁠ and use code VULGAR at checkout — Get Vulgar History merch at ⁠⁠⁠vulgarhistory.com/store⁠⁠⁠ (best for US shipping) and ⁠⁠⁠vulgarhistory.redbubble.com⁠⁠⁠ (better for international shipping) — ⁠⁠⁠Support Vulgar History on Patreon ⁠⁠⁠ — Vulgar History is an affiliate of Bookshop.org, which means that a small percentage of any books you click through and purchase will come back to Vulgar History as a commission. ⁠⁠⁠Use this link to shop there and support Vulgar History.⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Ann Foster you are perfect, never change.

This is one of my favourite podcasts. Very astute and entertaining. Presents accounts of the interesting yet not well known women (and others) of history in a way that is very relaxed, funny and accessible. If you are a misogynist you will hate this podcast. 10/10
