Ep16. Hollywood's Dahling & A Furious Lesbian

There were technical difficulties and scheduling issues. Nevertheless, the ladies persisted! This week, Kelley and Emily take a trip to old Hollywood to discuss two women who lived life out loud, even when the world didn't want them to. Gripping a repeat glass of Sangria, Emily talks about Hollywood legend, queen, and all around badass, Tallulah Bankhead! Though she had a rough beginning (and the most metal baptism ever,) dahling Tallulah managed to become a successful actress who was unashamed of her sexuality. Then, Kelley covers the amazing (if not a bit sad) story of Mercedes de Acosta who "had the most important women of the 20th century" and wrote the greatest lesbian kiss-and-tell book ever! Take your places and settle, because it's lights, camera, herstory! **FULL DISCLOSURE: We apologize for the use of the term 'ambisextrous' during this episode. We were unaware of the negative connotation and will be more aware in the future.**** Mornings with u by Barradeen | https://soundcloud.com/barradeenMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unportedhttps://creativecoWmmons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.en_US  Support the show10% Off Your First Month of BetterHelp: betterhelp.com/herstory www.buymeacoffee.com/wahpod Join the Funerary Cult: https://www.patreon.com/winingaboutherstorySponsor a Glass of Wine: https://buymeacoffee.com/wahpodGet Merch: https://wining-about-herstory.myspreadshop.com/  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
