This is fierce. I can't type.

0:07

Yes, Women workers do present problems.

0:10

A podcast about the incredible women who never

0:12

made it into our history books and the modern

0:14

women carrying on their legacies today. Used

0:17

to the ladies the fair Eld the week

0:19

I can't find the women workers

0:22

don't mind routine, repetitive work

0:24

And will you make a copy of this naturally?

0:27

I'm your host, Joe Piazza. Each

0:30

week we're bringing you the story of a groundbreaking

0:32

woman from the past who made huge

0:34

contributions to the present, but whose

0:36

name still isn't on the tips of our tongues for

0:39

whatever reason. Clementine Paddleford.

0:42

You know, I feel like I'm pretty well read about, you

0:44

know, pioneering women in this genre,

0:46

and now I hadn't heard of her. Changy Sow.

0:49

She outclasses every

0:51

other known pirate by every metric

0:53

you would use to discover success. Phillis

0:56

Sweetly she published a book when

0:58

she was at most twenty

1:00

years old, while she was still a slave.

1:03

I mean, it's really kind of astounding store

1:05

of our life. Dorothy Arsner. I

1:07

think that a lot of producers

1:10

made life very difficult for her because

1:12

they were known for their hemiphobia, and

1:14

they were going to put up with not only a woman

1:16

director, but a woman director who was a lesbian.

1:19

Grace Hopper in each of the previous

1:21

Industrial revolutions were started by

1:23

Thomas Edison or a tesla

1:26

or what. Grace Hopper was

1:28

that person for the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

1:31

Yet, when I would talk to people here in Silicon

1:33

Valley, I was in shock that most

1:35

people didn't even know who she was. At

1:37

the end of each episode, I'll be joined by a woman

1:39

living today who's standing on the shoulders of

1:41

this historical woman, whether she knows

1:43

it or not. Fierce

1:45

debuts on May six. Join

1:48

us for this storytelling adventure featuring

1:50

groundbreaking women from our past who

1:52

you really ought to know.
