WHAT WE'RE ABOUT

Drinking + Women’s History = HERstory on the Rocks Podcast. We are just two gals sipping cocktails and talking all things HERstory. Join us as we talk about good women, bad women, cartoon women, game changing women and all women in between - because ladies have nuance. Each week our ladies are paired with a themed cocktail and a recipe posted online so you can drink along with us. Come take the history class your teachers wouldn’t let you - more cursing, more drinking, and all ladies!
