Shamelessly cherry-picking an idea from their recent interview with fellow Lutheran lady Katie Schuermann, the Ladies announce their next book club read: Elizabeth Von Arnim's The Enchanted April. In this 1922 novel, ideal for all those who “appreciate wistaria and sunshine,” four Englishwomen, strangers to each other, split costs to rent an Italian castle for a month.

It's a Whole New World as we discuss: Sandra Oh's previous career before joining the cast Ian and Ellie discuss a mutual love of all things Phoebe Waller-Bridge Which character of the main twosome does each member of the panel connect with more? What piece of dialogue required more thought than any other part? Why was this? What was the name of the source material? Why switch it for television? Ian & Ellie both share their relative strengths in speaking with accents Ian gives his first impressions of the series, having never seen it before Would we ground the Killing Eve pilot or is it Cleared for Takeoff?

Little known today despite being one of the most important Englishwomen of the nineteenth century, she worked tirelessly to rescue prostitutes and save women from trafficking. Josephine Butler was a truly remarkable woman.
In Episode 37, I ask the question "Are we in the middle of a Time War?" I ask the question because, for those who wish to contain God or control God, they must first control time. Is there any evidence of time travel? What about the Bermuda Triangle? There have been dozens of reports of people gaining and losing time when traveling through the Bermuda Triangle. Is the fabled Foundation of Youth another time well where the earth distorts time? How about time slips? In 1901, two Englishwomen, Anne Moberly and Eleanor Jourdain swore they saw Marie Antoinette drawing in a sketchbook in her Garden during their vacation in France. If ancient man was as smart as I have claimed, he/she would have used these natural time distortions as part of the quantum drive that powered the planetary computer that built. Yes, I argue that as a Type I civilization, ancient man converted the planet into a computer (see previous episodes). Unfortunately, I believe that the current man has learned ancient man's secrets and is seeking to use it to control God. Current attempts at time control include the Nazi Bell (Die Glocke), the Philadelphia Experiment (The USS Eldridge), DARPA's Project Pegasus, and CERN's Large Hadron Collider. If any of these attempts at Time Travel are real we should be seeing evidence of timeline disruption. Would a shoe print in a rock in Fisher Canyon, NV that is estimated to be 5 million years old be enough evidence of timeline disruption? Would the discovery of the Methuselah Star, a star estimated to be 2 billion years older than our universe, be more evidence of timeline disruption? If you buy what I am preaching, then you will accept that there are occultist scientists and billionaires who want to control God. Think I have lost my mind yet?

Marjorie Bowen Marjorie Bowen was the nom de plume of Margaret Gabrielle Vere Long, born Campbell. Marjorie Bowen was born in 1885 in Hampshire, England, and lived a very interesting life, especially in a time when women were generally expected to be confined to the kitchen or other minor supporting roles. Unfortunately her father was an alcoholic and abandoned the family and the was eventually found dead on the street in London. There must've been some money in the family, and those of us who are English are ever conscious to subtle indicators of social class. For example, working-class Englishwomen are never called ‘Gabrielle Vere Long’. Another clue to the fact that she came of refined stock was the fact that she studied at the Slade School of Art and later in Paris. I was about to say that working-class people did not study at fine art schools when I remembered my own grandfather ,who was an Irish immigrant, in fact went to an art school in Edinburgh just after the First World War. In any case, Bowen was a talented writer. Even though she married a Sicilian (who died of tuberculosis) and then in Englishman named Long (who survived) , it was Bowen who supported the family through her writing. Her first novel The Viper of Milan was published in 1906. Her work was prolific and she produced over 150 published items and she seems to have liked lurid subject matters such as black magic and murder. All praise to her for that say I. Women have been expected to write stories about love and domestic situations and while that is well and good, why can't they write about murder andblack magic as well! This story that I've just read: The Housekeeper is from a collection called The Bishop of Hell. Although I love the title ‘The Bishop of Hell’, I prefer this story. Like the Bishop of Hell it's a period story set in a historical epoch that was on her own and Bowen makes a good job of creating authentic sounding dialogue. I think she also is brilliant at conjuring characters; and though neither Beau Sekforde, his evil wife the Countess, or even the ghost Jane Sekforde, come out very sympathetically, they may not be sympathetic but they are strong and memorable. In constructing the story we see how she drops the scar on the ghost’s cheek early on when The Countess sees the ghost and doesn’t know who she is, and neither do we at that point, and then then explains the scar at the end causing us we as readers give a gasp of final understanding! Nothing suggests until the end that Beau Sekforde murdered his wife, but when we find out that there is a bottle of poison that the ghost has significantly tidied up, we are not surprised, and we marry that with our prior assessment of Beau Sekforde as a bounder and a cad and are not surprised to find him a murderer. The ghost does what ghosts often do and sets the moral order straight, and murderer is punished I think Marjorie Bowen writes very well. Her prose is strong, her characters vivid, her dialogue convincing, and her story construction is admirable, but in this as in other stories in the anthology the Bishop of Hell I think the weak point is actually the supernatural element Even so, I hope I enjoyed reading the story very much, and I hope you enjoyed listening to it.

In 1934, two Englishwomen set out to do what no one had ever done before: travel the length of Africa on a motorcycle. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll follow Theresa Wallach and Florence Blenkiron from Algiers to Cape Town on a 14,000-mile adventure that many had told them was impossible. We'll also anticipate some earthquakes and puzzle over a daughter's age. Intro: Among the survivors of the Titanic were two boys who were unclaimed by any adult. In 1638, Galileo saw through a mistake in Aristotle simply by thinking about it.

Persuasion by Jane Austen was published in 1817 and the last book she fully completed before she died.

The young Englishmen (and few Englishwomen) who first settled around The Chesapeake Bay had very little time to think about ----that crazy little thing called love.---- Money, and a strong work ethic were some of the first qualities they sought in a potential mate, but there were some exceptions, and sometimes, romance ruled the day.

In this podcast I interview Ginger of Scene in the Past and The Duchess Next Door about how to create period appropriate Regency era looks. Whether you’re a seasoned professional looking for a polished finish, or a brand new to costuming and looking at attending a Jane Austen festival, Ginger gives great tips for creating the look from the inside out. We talk under layers, fabric selection, accessories, and little tricks to get the look right.

It’s been 100 years since suffragettes won the right for some privileged Englishwomen to vote, and this anniversary got us thinking about the milestones of feminism across time. At All About Women 2018 we invited four speakers to reflect on what feminism has achieved and what is still to be done in a panel called From Suffragettes to Social Media. We were joined by historian Barbara Caine who spoke to the First Wave, iconic Second-waver Anne Summers, Rebecca Walker shared her insights on the Third Wave and playwright Nakkiah Lui rounded out the panel posing the question: is there even a Fourth Wave? The session was chaired by Edwina Throsby. Watch the full talk including discussion and audience Q&A at youtube.com/ideasatthehouse.
