Podcast appearances and mentions of susan vollenweider

"The History Chicks," hosted by Beckett Graham and Susan Vollenweider since 2011, now boasts tens of thousands of listeners worldwide.

The History Chicks - No Spoilers! This is podcast is made up of the history lessons you've always wanted but never got. Every two weeks Beckett Graham and Susan Vollenweider pick a woman from the thousands of year of human history and tell her story. From a variety of eras and backgrounds, everything about each woman is mentioned including interpretations, connections, and bias. The episodes start with a 30 second summary of what you can expect, goes into the birth, life, and later death of the individual, and then wraps with the sources used. One thing I really love about the hosts is that even though the stories are told mainly from the perspectives of a particular woman, Graham and Vollenweider recognize the bias in that. A character maybe perceived and presented as a villain in one woman's episode but be a hero in their own. This self-awareness plus in depth research is what makes this podcast so beloved among history fans. And I mean beloved. Starting in January of 2011, the show has 4.7 out of 5 stars and 6.9K Ratings. To keep such a high average over a long time is difficult for even the best pods. It's also been recognized with a handful of awards such as a finalist in The People's Choice Podcast Award, a finalist in The Academy of Podcasters Awards, and Mixcloud Online Radio Awards, Best Talk Show in the Education Category. They were finalist in The People's Choice Podcast Award for seven years straight. I highly recommend checking out their detailed websites and packed show notes for things like photos, videos, and news for every episode. Their Facebook group, History Chicks Podcast Lounge, is also such a friendly and inviting community. So far there are 263 episodes! On average they are about an hour long and while they are typically put out every two weeks, the day does vary. My favorite episodes have been “Laura Ingalls Wilder” and “The Romanovs (Part 1).” Audio is rough in the first couple of episodes but like with every podcast gets better with time. I really love this podcast and I'm so happy there are so many episodes. You could relisten a couple of times before I think you could begin to remember it all. It's comforting, relaxing, distracting, and interesting. What more could you ask for?Similar Pods: The Gilded Gentleman, What'sHerName, and Stuff You Missed in History Class. Sources: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/the-history-chicks-31814https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-history-chicks/id415983183 ★ Support this podcast ★

Welcome back! We've saved you your usual spot in the smoke circle and let me tell you: you sure know how to pick a spot! That's the best seat, it just wraps you up like a cozy hug...and it also happens to be on the roller's left...I see you. ;-) Get comfy! If weed isn't your bag, KT has some of her excellent "Cab Sav" for you. Tonight we have some great stories for you! First, Laurel takes us to Hawaii before it was an American state and we get to meet the amazing Queen Lili'uokalani, Hawaii's last sovereign monarch. From there, we don't have to travel much in time but, instead, a couple of oceans away to the empire of France under the rule of Napoleon Bonaparte. Poor Napoleon gets himself into a bit of a fuzzy dilemma and is attacked by hundreds of bunnies! *~*~*~*~*~*~ Mentioned In The Stories: Queen Lili'uokalani's Trust Statue of Queen Lili'uokalani *~*~*~*~*~*~ The Socials: Email -- hightailinghistorypod@gmail.com Instagram -- @hightailinghistory Facebook -- Hightailing Through History or with user name @hightailinghistory *~*~*~*~*~*~ Sources: Queen Lili'uokalani-- Alexander, Kerri Lee.

We speak to Beckett Graham and Susan Vollenweider of The History Chicks about exactly what is the secret behind their success. Dexter Gilman Wansel was raised in Philadelphia and he contributed to the development of the Philly Sound. Life On Mars which was released in 1976 has a Jazz funk feel and remains a genre standard to this day. Do You Hear The People Sing - Les Misérables, is one of the principal and most recognisable songs from the musical. A stirring anthem, it is sung twice in the stage musical. Charles Trenet - Je Chante. In this song, a poor vagabond describes his life, filled only with music. At the end, imprisoned by the gendarmes, he hangs himself to regain freedom and returns in the form of a ghost. Beck - Loser. Beck worked low-wage jobs to survive, but still found time to perform his songs at local coffeehouses and clubs. In order to keep his bored audiences engaged, the slacker anthem Loser was written. The British based house group Shades of Rhythm wrote so many great pieces of... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It's a rare gardener who: 1. loves rabbits, 2. co-exists with a mother groundhog nesting under the potting shed, 3. respects the right to life of black walnut trees, and 4. gingerly saves a dragonfly caught in a spider web. Indeed, Jen McGuinness just might be one of the most kind-hearted gardeners on the planet. With a gentle wit that winds it's way into her posts on her blog, Frau Zinnie, Jen McGuinness is also a professional freelance photographer by trade. Frau Zinnie highlights Jen's personal gardening experiences in Portland, Connecticut. She also has a lovely (and hilarious) Twitter presence you must follow!
