    Rebecca Rubin: Businessgirlboss
    Sep 28 2023
    After a hiatus to accommodate a career change (talk about businessgirlbosses!), the girlies are back in action! It's time for America's favorite starlet, Beckie Rubin is here to talk business. Show business, grifting business, entrepreneurial business; she does it all.

    Do you love hutzpah? How about unions? Or concussions? Or movies? What about cats? This saga has it all. What do you do when you need to buy your family passage from Russia to New York and you're only 9? Let Beckster tell you. How about when you're forced to celebrate Christmas because your teacher is an evangelist? She has that covered, too. Did you ever wonder what Coney Island was like when it was full of carnies? You're about to find out.

    Listen up and hunker down as the gals take you deep into the colorful world of New York in 1914, where you can buy a banana for a penny and literally anyone can apparently be a movie star. Tune in to hear about our favorite American Opportunist!

  • Part 2: Cécile Rey: The Rich Man's Girlboss

    Part 2: Cécile Rey: The Rich Man's Girlboss
    Jul 27 2023
    Part 2 of the most boring American Girls ever created!! This time, our lil ladies dive into the heinous fashion of New Orleans, 1853. The wins are huge, the losses are catastrophic. The future of these two (both in their time period and in ours) is also discussed, and accurate (probably). Join Elizabeth and Francesca as they tear these 9 year olds to shreds.

    *the time period and place of these novels was hella interesting, so why are these girls (who are NOT friends, as evidenced by said books) SO BORING as individuals??

    Part 1: Marie-Grace Gardner: Marie-Girlboss
    Jul 26 2023
    Oof the gals had a rough one with this. Not only were these two the most boring heroines ever, but the first recording of this episode was deleted and had to be re-recorded. These episodes are so long. Recording takes forever. But by the grace of God they did it. For you <3

    It's time for the first ever JOINT EPISODE!!! Both gals are presenting for you today!

    It's also Yellow Fever Time, Babyyy!!! Is this an interesting place and time that isn't typically covered in American History classes? You betcha! Does that make for an interesting premise? Of course! So, pray tell, HOW is it so BORING here? These bland girls do nothing. Interesting things happen TO them, but they are not interesting. Our two favorite hosts are, though, so please listen. I promise it's more interesting and fun than any of the wild books they had to read.

  • Molly McIntire: Ungovernable Girlboss

    Molly McIntire: Ungovernable Girlboss
    May 11 2023
    Pop a Molly and settle in, friendos.

    This week, the lassies discuss the girlboss who cannot be governed, Ms. Molly McIntire. How much do you love war? What about war sequels? This WWII champ refutes all laws and logic. Is she obsessed with hair that is not stick-straight and brown? Idk, ask Miss Campbell and her dark mahogany hair that swishes "like a dancer's skirt". Does she love playing bomb shelter? Idk, ask her very best and most traumatized friend, British Emily. Does she cover another best friend in worms, knowing full well that she has a legit phobia? Idk, ask Linda and/or Susan.

    There are lots of witnesses to Molly's ungovernability lurking in the shadows of her tyranny. Are they only her "friends" because they're scared of retribution from a girl that acknowledges no ruler other than herself, the One True Goddess? You decide.

    May 5 2023
    Are you interested in depression? How about the Greatest of Depressions (the economic one, not the one we've all been experiencing since birth)?

    Join our two heroic tramps as they delve into the depressing world of Ohio. Here is where our favorite shitty typist resides. Margaret Mildred (also called "Kit", or "Squirt" if ya nasty), is the baddest of the American Girl betches. Does she publicly shame her uncle via the news media? Of course. Does she indulge in violence? Always. Has she been to the clink? ...perhaps...

    If you like bloomers, boardinghouses, shrimpy boys, wealth, Mr. Turkeypants, hobos, Amelia Earhart, Ohio, Robin Hood, or evictions, this is the series for you.

    Ladies, Gentlemen, Folx of all ages: American Icon and Role Model, Kit Kittredge.

    wow okay so these episodes just keep getting longer but like...it's quality content we promise.

    ***this is a Grandmary stan account***

    OH you didn't want over an hour and a half of Samantha content? Should've said something earlier. It's too late now. Enjoy over 90 minutes of girlbossery starring your fav Uptown Girlboss, Sammy P. Accompanied by a variety of redheaded fellows, experience the fancy-pants hijinks of New York City at the turn of the century. Do you love women's rights? What about physical violence? How about sickly servant girls? Samantha has it all (and then some!)

    Join Francesca and Elizabeth as they take you on a journey through New York, from the grimy streets of the city to the goosiest of lakes. I hope you brought your bird-watching paraphenalia.

  • Addy Walker: Freedmen Girlboss

    Addy Walker: Freedmen Girlboss
    Apr 21 2023
    Travel back in time to one of the least funny wars in history: the Civil one. Let sisters Francesca and Elizabeth regale you with tales of Harriet the brat, workaholic Sarah Moore, and our hero, one Miss Addy Walker. She may be a nerd, but she is also a badass (apparently they're not mutually exclusive).

    Only one question remains: is Aduke "Addy" Walker a true American Girlboss? That remains to be seen. Or heard. Give a listen and decide for yourself.
