BUT if you start from episode 1, get ready for a surprise. This podcast isn't just about historical heroines. It's also a space for women to not be ashamed of their dating disasters, sex fails, and overall poor choices. If you're into hearing lighthearted and mildly embarrassing hookup stories that might make you cringe and laugh simultaneously -- then you'll want to start from the beginning. There's a sprinkling of finding self-worth, personal growth, and coaching along the way too.

Episode 360: Hoes of History: Brigitte Helm
Wednesday, 3 December, 2025
Brigitte Helm was the enigmatic star who became immortal through her iconic role as Maria and the Machine-Man in Metropolis. From being discovered as a teenager to becoming one of the Weimar era's most recognizable faces, Helm's career rose quickly—and burned just as fast. We trace her journey from overnight stardom to her complicated relationship with fame, the pressures of the film industry, and her bold decision to walk away from it all at just 30 years old. We also dive into the personal battles she faced, the turbulent political climate that shaped her choices, and how her legacy continues to inspire filmmakers and actresses nearly a century later.
