Spicy history

AngelasPOV

If you want your women’s history with a side of spice and a possible hangover, then this is the podcast for you! Both hosts are hilarious and entertaining, and I learn quite a lot about history while also giggling manically. I love history, but women’s history has been a bag of dicks, but luckily, Katy and Nathan will tell you all about it with jokes from G to R. Highly recommend!
One of the BEST Ever Podcasts
