Never Heard Of Her

History made them footnotes. We’re giving them the microphone.

Hello and welcome to Never Heard Of Her - Badass Women of World History (formerly known as Raiders of the Lost Archive - The MITFORD Podcast)

Never Heard of Her is the history podcast unearthing the brilliant, scandalous, and fiercely unruly women history books conveniently left in the footnotes.

From aristocratic rebels and radical muckrakers to eccentric trailblazers who refused to play by the rules, we dig through the archives to bring you the chaotic, sharp-witted, and forgotten women who shaped our world—and made an absolute nuisance of themselves doing it. Because well-behaved women rarely make good podcast episodes.

--> To our wonderful Mitford fans: We hope you had a great time with our "year with the Mitfords". We're so thrilled you came onto the ride? - We hadn't planned a year and we had so much fun doing it! But after a year, we wanted to move on and shine a light on other badass women of history. And there are SO MANY!!

Thank you so much for being with us all this year! We hope you'll enjoy this new podcast and all the diverse women stories we plan to bring you. We'll still be the same old silly gals who're keen on picking out the most outrageous fun facts that make you go WOW!
