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.
Biting All The Apples
A woman’s victory is punishment for a man who lacked faith & other nuggets from the book of Judges
After a little trip down first communion memory lane with your cradle catholic cohosts, we dive into the book of Judges. Holy moly is it full of female baddies. Unfortunately, they are used much like a mob wives in the picture shows: as a plot points. In the case of the book of Judges, their heroism is even used to humiliate a guy for not believing in gods direction. Stanton and some freethinking victorian babes have some sharp, zippy, and insightful analysis. By the end of this episode you won't wonder where all that fragility comes from.
