Ep193. Princess of Music & The First Lady

The ladies are back (along with their bearable audio quality) to wine about some proud women who did what and who they wanted! First, Kelley shares the story of Winnaretta Singer, heiress to a grand sewing machine fortune who loved supporting artists, helping the less fortunate, and drawing sexual boundaries with an umbrella.
