Descendants of enslaved people who once worked the land as sharecroppers, these women transformed necessity into artistry, crafting bold, improvisational quilts from repurposed fabrics like denim, flour sacks, and worn-out clothing. Their work remained largely unknown outside their community until the early 2000s, when museum exhibitions catapulted them into the national spotlight. Now celebrated as one of the most significant contributions to American textile art, Gee's Bend quilts have been displayed at the Whitney Museum, the Met, and the Smithsonian. Their distinctive designs—like the Housetop and Bricklayer patterns—have influenced modern art and design, blending tradition with innovation. Today, their legacy continues through exhibitions, workshops, and direct sales, ensuring their craft remains both an artistic and economic lifeline for the community.About FrancineFrancine Thompson is the Design Director of Brand at Hims & Hers, where she brings a strategic and thoughtful approach to branding, creating design systems that feel both human and impactful.

Despite technological advancements, the human touch and taste in tattooing remain irreplaceable. The essence of tattoo artistry lies in the unique vision and emotional connection that an artist brings to their work. While AI can generate designs and assist in the rendering process, it cannot replicate the nuanced understanding of aesthetics, personal stories, and the intimate relationships that develop between tattoo artists and their clients. Scott Campbell, Aaron's first of many guests at our podcast pop-up during the Golden State Tattoo Expo, highlights the importance of emotional engagement in tattooing. He notes that the act of tattooing is not just about the final product but also about the journey and the connection formed during the process. This human element is what makes tattoos deeply personal and meaningful, transcending mere visuals. The artist's ability to understand and interpret a client's desires, emotions, and life experiences is something that AI cannot fully grasp or replicate. Tune in for an engaging dialogue that explores the depth and layers of tattoo artistry and the passion behind it. 00:00:00 - Distinctive Voice in Tattooing 00:02:48 - Scott's Thoughtful Approach to Art and Life 00:05:00 - Early Tattooing Experiences 00:06:13 - The Pirate Gypsy Vibe of Tattooing 00:07:32 - Influences and Mentors: Juan Puente 00:12:41 - Tattooing as a Folk Art 00:14:48 - The Ephemeral Nature of Tattoos 00:17:17 - The Leap of Faith in Creativity and Life 00:18:40 - Relationships and Tattoos 00:24:00 - The Importance of Co-Parenting 00:26:05 - Scott's Podcast: Stupid Things for Love 00:32:07 - Adapting to Changes in the Tattoo Industry 00:37:24 - Stoicism and True Strength Quotes: "I feel like tattooing is kind of like this big metaphor for the, you know, the misfit table at the high school lunchroom." "I walked in and told the guy I was a full-fledged professional tattooer, but the airline lost my luggage." "Oh, this is a place where you can sit still, but still feel like you're moving, you know, because it's such a river of humanity." "If I do a tattoo on somebody and they get up and they're like, tears in their eyes, they're like, I love it so much, that's the best feeling in the world." "To develop the ability to dive into something headfirst, not knowing how it's going to end up is really powerful and like one of the most courageous acts ever." "I do think people's physical identity isn't as significant as their digital identity anymore." "Fulfillment is a nice word. It's the ability to look back and feel proud of who you are and what you've done with your life." "I think nowadays I look at life, like it's trippier than some of my hardest acid trips." "Change is the only constant. The only thing you can be sure of is it won't be this way in five years."

Slovenija praznuje dan državnosti in s tem zaznamuje 33 let od osamosvojitve, ko je takratna skupščina sprejela ključne osamosvojitvene dokumente za osamosvojitev in sicer temeljno ustavno listino o samostojni in neodvisni Republiki Sloveniji, ustavni zakon za njeno izvedbo ter deklaracijo o neodvisnosti. Velik korak k osamosvojitvi smo Slovenci pred tem naredili na plebiscitu 23-ega decembra 1990, ki je imel več kot 93-odstotno udeležbo, za samostojno državo pa je glasovalo skoraj 96 odstotkov teh, ki so prišli na volišča. Sodelovanje in pogum, ki smo ga pokazali takrat, je močno odmeval v govorih na včerajšnjih slavnostnih dogodkih in na osrednji državni proslavi. V oddaji tudi: - Slovenski nogometaši proti Angliji za zgodovinski preboj med elito stare celine. - Prihodki od zamrznjenega ruskega premoženja kmalu na voljo za pomoč Ukrajini. - V Mariboru svoja vrata odpirata mednarodni folklorni festival Folkart in JazzLent.

We all heard the drama of 'Don't Worry, Darling' with rumors of spitting on co-stars, affairs with the director, phone calls about "Miss Flo" and much more leaking their way into the press for an entire year. But what about the plot of this movie (that's a real movie)? The story of a man setting his wife in an idealistic 50-style "traditional" home against her knowledge is not a new one. Its connection to the mid-70s book and movie 'The Stepford Wives' by Ira Levin is impossible to ignore. Today we are talking about all the iterations of this horrific tale and how it relates to the gender roles of the time period, from the 1970s of the first book and movie to the early 2000s remake, and the present-day box-office bomb. We also discuss different expectations of women over time, what men want in a woman, body image, inequality, and sexual assault.TW: some of the topics might be a bit triggering.Episodes Like This One: History of Feminism, Riot GrrrlFollow us on Instagram @morethanamuse.podcast

This week, Stauney introduces us to the personal portrait artist of Marie Antoinette, Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun. Vigée Le Brun was an early French painter known for her close associations with the famous aristocracy of Paris, and later - most of the European royals. We talk about her early tutelage under her father,  her rise to fame and career at the early age of 14, her tastemaking "It girl" status in Paris, her exile from her home country right before the execution of the Royals, and the remaining years and historic mark she left on the history of France.Episodes Like This One: Female Political Leaders, Sofonisba Anguilsola, Artemesia GentileschiFollow us on Instagram @morethanamuse.podcast

The artist's reception on January 21st:Alabama Contemporary Art Center301 Conti StreetMobile, Alabama 36602"Abe Partridge is a touring musician and artist from Mobile, AL; fundamentally a storyteller who fuses a heady mix of backwoods baptismal and back alley punk rock. His background as a baptist preacher who experienced a crisis/conversion of faith allows him to travel roads less traveled. For the last two years Partridge has made regular visits and embedded himself in several communities of Appalachian religious snake-handlers. After much time spent, he was given permission to document his experiences; the music, rituals, and stories that called to him. This is an exhibition of new work exploring those experiences, made in direct collaboration with this community.OPENING RECEPTIONJanuary 21 @ 6 PM"

Reading is trendy again! Since the Harry Potter and Twilight craze, we haven't seen the internet as obsessed with books as they have been in the past two years with the rise of #booktok, a subset of TikTok focused on book recommendations, authors, booksellers and anything else of the literary sense. From the publishing and printed book industry to believed to have been completely dying out, to now making more money than ever before, and celebrities and influencers being spotted holding books everywhere they go, today Stauney and Sadie talk about the BookTok sensation and what it's doing for the female authors and book industry, and why we should all be excited about the reading renaissance.Episodes Like This One: Romance Novels Aren't TrashyFollow us on Instagram @morethanamuse.podcast

Presents and the patriarchy? Misogyny under the mistletoe? Santa and... sexism? Today we're talking about Christmas and the unfair division of holiday labor that happens during this season of merriment. In "traditional households" most of the holiday chores, decorating, Christmas cards, present shopping, gift wrapping, treats and dinners, and hosting, all tend to fall to one individual: the woman. Why does it happen today even in our more progressive society? How are some couples able to escape it? Why do some women not really want it to stop? What do the men have to say about it all? Today we discuss it all with some humor and also dive into what one area in Ireland is doing to celebrate the extra holiday labor that women tend to take on every year during December.Episodes Like This One: Misogyny and Marriage, Christmas Music ChartsArticles in this episode:The Gendering of Holiday Labor - JSTOR DailyWhy so many women really hate Christmas.WOULD THERE BE CHRISTMAS WITHOUT WOMEN – Orlando SentinelFollow us on Instagram @morethanamuse.podcast

Although she was one of the first recipients of the Triple Crown, the first actress ever to win a Tony and Oscar for the same role, and one of the most awarded Broadway actresses of all time, Shirley Booth is largely forgotten and often only remembered for her role on a sitcom. This week, Sadie reminds us of this award-winning actress whose life was not an easy one, being estranged early from her family and dealing with many of the complications of the early age of Hollywood, even lying about her age and pretending to be TEN years younger than she was, but nonetheless going on to be a Broadway legend. She also voiced Mrs. Claus in "The Year Without a Santa Claus."Episodes Like This One: Julie Andrews, Hollywood Starlets, Betty White, When Women Invented TelevisionFollow us on Instagram @morethanamuse.podcast

Every year in December, you can expect to hear the same classic Christmas songs that cue you into the beginning of the holiday season. Whether it's the 13 opening notes of Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" or the melodic melodies of Christmas classics like "Silent Night" or "White Christmas," it seems that the same songs have been around... well forever. Today we dive into the LONG history of Christmas carols, starting with the early 14th century, up to the 90's Mariah Carey hit, and also discuss WHY Christmas music is well... old, and the chart toppers in December never seem to make it anywhere near the top 100 any other time of the year. Episodes Like This One: Eartha Kitt, Karen CarpenterFollow us on Instagram @morethanamuse.podcast

Stauney talks about a beloved American painter, Anna Mary Robertson Moses, also known as "Grandma" Moses. With a 20 year farming career alongside her husband and ten children, Moses didn't start painting for profit until her late 70's. However, her climb to acclaim was fast paced thereafter with her being featured in Times Magazine for her 100th birthday, selling paintings for $5 to $10,000 within ten years, and even being honored by two U.S. Presidents. Her beloved folk art depicts holiday scenes of a simpler time that you won't be able to prevent yourself from falling in love with.Episodes Like This One: Miss Alma Thomas, Kenojuak Ashevak, Maria PrymachenkoFollow us on Instagram @morethanamuse.podcast

Regarding Glenn Summerford: the serpent-handling preacher from Episode 4 found guilty of forcing his wife's hand into a box of rattlesnakes... a listener emailed with a question about his first two felonies. Her name is Sarah, and she was a public defender for over a decade in Kentucky.

When Abe first decided to co-produce a podcast about his music-documenting journey, he approached the serpent handlers and told them of his plans.  Knowing they'd been the subject of ridicule in the past (and that they probably didn't trust him), Abe promised he would send them the podcast before it was ever released.  He said they could have full editorial control. When he and Ferrill completed a draft worthy of release, Abe sent the podcast to serpent handlers Cody Coots, Cassy Coots, Andrew Hamblin and Taylor Hamblin.  In return, he received a downright humbling text ...

The story takes a turn. Jimmy Morrow, founder and preacher of Edwina Church of God in Jesus' Name, invites Abe into his home. Sensing that Abe has a “good spirit,” Jimmy shows Abe his poetry, art, and a comprehensive collection of serpent-handling history and lore.   Afterwards, Jimmy and Pam Morrow both sing songs for Abe from their faith, a capella. Meanwhile, Abe discusses with Ferrill the idea of faith at a “cost”… and why Abe finds meaning in that.   Visit the Alabama Astronaut Podcast website for more content!Alabama Astronaut Podcast website Find us on social, too:Alabama Astronaut FacebookAlabama Astronaut's TwitterAlabama Astronaut Instagram Special thanks this episode goes to: Jimmy and Pam MorrowDr. Thomas RybaBarbara Gibbs Allen

After months of corresponding with Cody and Cassy Coots, Abe decides to make a studio album for them. It's to feature serpent-handling songs that have been sung in Cody's church for generations.  Abe enlists the help of host Ferrill Gibbs to record it, who travels from Houston to meet up with Abe in Birmingham, Alabama. Together, they make a beeline for Middlesboro, Kentucky, in Abe's white touring van. Once in Middlesboro, the two convert Cody's great-grandfather's church – Full Gospel Tabernacle in Jesus Name – into a recording studio. With a six-foot rattlesnake lounging nearby (named "Ol' Lemonhead"), Abe, Ferrill and the Coots make a fully-produced, multi-track, multi-instrumental studio album called "The Coots Duo." The rough tracks being a post-production process in Nashville, Tennessee. Visit the Alabama Astronaut Podcast website for more content!Alabama Astronaut Podcast website Find us on social, too:Alabama Astronaut FacebookAlabama Astronaut's TwitterAlabama Astronaut InstagramSpecial thanks this episode! Cody and Cassy CootsJay SmackBrent BusbyAndrew Hamblin and the Free Pentecostal House of PrayerGreg Coots and the Full Gospel Tabernacle in Jesus Name

Abe Partridge, a folk artist from Mobile, Alabama, approaches Ferrill Gibbs, a podcaster from Texas, in mid 2020. With his gigs canceled due to coronavirus, Abe spends time at serpent-handling churches across the Appalachians. He explains to Ferrill how originally, his plan was to paint the oft-ridiculed sect, but while taking in their frenetic services, he began to realize their songs were powerful, and possibly, undocumented. Abe shares audio with Ferrill of a serpent handling preacher who tied Abe's hands with a Gibson guitar strap in a worship service. Also, Ferrill draws a connection to legendary music documentarians, John Avery and Alan Lomax.Visit the website for bonus content!Alabama Astronaut WebsiteAnd find us on social, too:Alabama Astronaut FacebookAlabama Astronaut's TwitterAlabama Astronaut InstagramSpecial thanks this episode to: John Nova LomaxAndrew HamblinTaylor Hamblin
