Biting All The Apples
Biting All The Apples is an unhinged bookclub-ish conversation that channels the sassy wisdom of long dead victorian feminists to analyze the puritanical influences still messing with our world today. We start off with the 1895 best seller "The Woman's Bible" by Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Each week we cover their 19th century feminist analysis of a book in the bible and ponder, laugh, and cry over the similarities to the issues of today.
This is a great listen for anyone interested in the patriarchal influence in religion, politics, and social order. As well as anyone that is GenX or any generation, anyone that likes comedy, books, history, and thinkin.

Eve Derangement Syndrome
Ok now we are getting into it with Genesis! Listen in on our reaction to reading The Woman's Bible take on the start of everything. The beginning of earth, animals, humans, and of course, sin. Stanton and her pals make some convincing points about reading Eve as the complex main character. They highlight where the wiley english interpreters took liberties and tell us more about the gorgeous allegories hidden in the classic creationist tale of how it all started. Plus other stuff that still affects us to this very day.
Did you know woman is the ancient form of womb-man? Let that sink in.
