Temple keepers, celery eaters, pubic hair hoarders: lesbians can really do it all. If you want to find out what else they can do, make sure to listen to today’s episode, as Lea and Casey interview author Kirsty Loehr, and ask her more about the fabulous figures featured in her book A Short History of Queer Women. After stressing the importance of preserving and talking about queer history, Kirsty shares more (spicy) details about questionable boob lovers like Marie-Antoinette, and bona fide lesbians like Anne Lister, Emily Brontë, and many more. And if you’d like a little extra book-based humour, don’t forget to keep an ear out at the end of the episode for Lea’s usual pick-up line, the first of many more for our new season!
