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.

The "Just The Genesis Gems" Bonus Episode!
It's our first bonus/recap/review episode! We wanted to do a couple recap episodes in case it has been too long and you barely remember words like Genesis, Exodus, and Deuteronomy! This is a great episode to listen to if you just want the dirt on The Woman's Bible and Genesis. We're pulling up our first episodes and digging out the gems. And listen, they are sparkling! You'll hear all about how Eve was actually the hero and how men got so freaking weird about pregnancy. Most of all - you'll get a taste of the main philosophical concerns of the victorian feminists who wrote The Woman's Bible. COncerns that are still concerning us today.
We’ve thrown a lot of victorian feminist hot takes your way these past fifteen weeks. Fifteen weeks! That’s right. In victorian time that’s barely an afternoon tea though. So don’t worry, we’ve still got more in store for you with full episodes returning later in July.
This episode also contains an important correction - here's the essay we mention:
