While Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling spend the next few months writing episodes for the next season, they are starting a new format for our weekly episodes. Covering current events each week.
In our -inaugeral- episode, we talk about the campaign for the presidency from Kamala Harris's entrance into the race to the DNC this week. And we do it by looking at the various memes and soundbites that have taken over an election that is very much about vibes and viral content.

Hi guys. sovereign accidentally forgot to upload this episode.
This week, Sovereign syre and Ela Darling finish their two part episode about Juana Maria, the last Nicoleno. Today we focus on what happened to her story long after her death when it was reimagined as the popular children's novel Island of the Blue Dolphins.
Since its publication, Island of the Blue Dolphins, a fictionalized telling of the story of a Nicoleno woman abandoned on San Nicolas Island for twenty years, often credited as the last of her tribe, the book has been a staple in American curriculum. The very sanitized story told in the book, featuring a twelve year old girl who learns to survive on her own by finding harmony with the land and animals that surround her, manages to tell the story of the Lone Woman, without telling us anything about her at all. In effect the book serves as colonialist propaganda. And today, we’re going to correct the record.

This week on the podcast Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling discuss Juana Maria, better known to history as the Lone Woman of San Nicolas Island. Juana Maria was a Native Californian woman who was the last surviving member of her tribe, the Nicoleño. She lived alone on San Nicolas Island off the coast of Alta California from 1835 until her removal from the island in 1853. Scott O'Dell's award-winning children's novel Island of the Blue Dolphins was inspired by her story. She was the last native speaker of the Nicoleño language.

In 2005 Lisa Frank filed for divorce. She filed a second lawsuit to oust James Green from the company. What followed was a protracted legal battle that made the psychodrama that had been taking place at LFI for over a decade, a matter of public record.
The following is from the article The Rainbow Gulag, published on Jezebel.com in 2013 by Tracy Egan Morrissey.:
“[James] really turned that place into a shit hole,” said Justin, who added, “The guy’s kind of dick.”

Today we’re discussing Lisa Frank, the artist behind the eponymous brand Lisa Frank Inc. If you were alive in the 80s and 90s, the psychedelic, neon airbrushed designs of unicorns and teddy bears and dolphins had a chokehold on your childhood. From stickers to binders to pencil cases, Lisa Frank merchandise was what divided the cool from the broke. Lisa Frank was one of the first fine artists to gear her designs toward children rather than wealthy art collectors. And her gamble paid off big, at the peak of her popularity, Lisa Frank Inc was taking in more than $150 million dollars a year.

This week is part two of our two parter on Cass Elliot. Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling talk about Cass's life after the break up of The Mamas And The Papas and her vindication as a solo singer.
Once money started coming in, Cass hosted artist salons at her large Laurel Canyon estate. She was kind and charismatic, easily making her the most popular one of the group. Joni Mitchell wrote several songs in her living room. At a soiree at her home one night, she urged her friends David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash to sing together at her place, thus forming Crosby Stills and Nash. She was also the only other person to sing on the first Crosby Stills and Nash album.
David Crosby described her life, “She had possibly the nicest house of any of us, and she liked having people over… I remember an afternoon when I took Eric Clapton up there and he and Cass and Joni Mitchel played tunes.”

In part one of a two parter, Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling delve into the origins of a 2000s icon.
Anna Nicole Smith was a polarizing, misunderstood figure. Often remembered for being an absolute trainwreck. Her rise to fame, from the girl next door to supermodel, made her a media darling, her campy, over the top persona, and ditzy girl humor on one of the earliest reality shows made her a queer icon, and her slide into addiction and despair made her a tragic figure of mythic proportions. I mean, she’s become a trope in rap songs alongside the likes of Donald Trump and Monica Lewinsky. Iconic.

From the silent era's vamps to the Golden Age goddesses of Hollywood, the bombshell has always been an enchanting figure, shaped and reshaped by societal desires and anxieties.
The bombshell is not a static ideal. It has morphed and adapted, mirroring the shifting landscapes of culture and feminism. Today, in the digital age, the bombshell exists in a new dimension, where social media amplifies both empowerment and objectification. We are left to question: Is the bombshell a symbol of female agency, or merely a construct designed to titillate and control?
This exploration will delve into the complex history of the bombshell inits various incarnations, and examine the power it wields.

His transition required thirteen operations and took place over four years, with no one the wiser. Dillon went on to be a surgeon himself, and traveled the world with various naval vessels for six years, living life as a man, with no one suspecting his origins.
He was ultimately outed because of his nobility. There are peerage records that are made of everyone's descendancy and changing one’s names in those had been impossible and eventually someone noticed the discrepancy.
After living as Michael Dillon for fifteen years, he was onboard a ship when he got a cable from England. It was from The Daily Express as said “Do you intend to claim the title since your change-over?”

Today, we are taking on our first man. Because sometimes men do important stuff for women. Like creating the field of plastic surgery. He’s a saint that changed the lives of thousands of wounded soldiers during WWI and pioneered many of the cosmetic procedures that are used today…primarily on women.

“Prozac Nation is a young person’s book, both in terms of its author and its target audience…What seemed most important to me about Wurtzel’s writing was that she had been messy, and she was willing to detail that mess without apology…It was a radical departure from how I’d seen women write about themselves…Whether we like it or not, Prozac Nation really did change the landscape when it comes to the way women write about themselves. It laid the groundwork for the what Jia Tolentino called the “personal-essay boom” of the early 2010s, an era when no detail was too graphic, no humiliation too private for sharing.”
It’s important to understand what was going on in the culture at this time. Prozac had just become popular, and record numbers of people were being diagnosed with depression. The chart topping artists were Depeche Mode, Nirvana, and Nine Inch Nails, bands whose messages were those of apathy and wallowing in despair, and a few months before Prozac Nation was published, Kurt Cobain committed suicide. There was a problem, but people were also wary of how we were treating it.

This week Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling profile writer and icon, Elizabeth Wurtzel. A beautiful, young, Harvard graduate whose memoir Prozac Nation got her on the New York Times Bestseller List and made her an overnight celebrity. She also suffered from major depression and was one of the first people to be prescribed the drug Prozac. She was both a media darling, and roundly mocked by others, for what was precieved as a kind of narcissism endemic of a news generation, a cohort labeled Gen X.

Roselyn “Rosie” Keo was the daughter of Cambodian refugees. When she was younger, her parents got caught up in gambling and nightlife, taking off for Atlantic City, leaving Rosie and her siblings to be raised by their elderly grandparents. She was a wild child, getting in fights, having bad boyfriends, typical teenage rebel stuff. She was growing up Rockland County, and by the age of 17, she dropped out of school and got a job working at New York City Diner to help with expenses at home. There was a gentleman’s club nearby called, Lace, and the dancers would often come into the diner after their shifts. One night a manager at Lace tipped her $20 bucks on a $20 dollar ticket and told her she should hit up the club if she was interested in making “real money.” Soon after she went to the club, lied about her age, and started working the pole. What followed became the basis for the hit film Hustlers starring Jennifer Lopez, Lizzo and Cardi B.

It's the end of Season Two! We did it! This week we conclude our series on Ada Lovelace.
In September 1843, Ada Lovelace published her paper on the Analytical Engine in Scientific Memoirs under the title "Sketch of the Analytical Engine, with Notes from the Translator.". Ada was 27 years old, an aristocratic, married mother of three children at the time. Her final published paper included seven important Notes labeled A-G that contained her observations, her assertions, and, it turns out, her legacy...she also cooked up a scheme to use her mathmatical skills to run a gambling operation to fund the building of said engine. Depsite her mother's efforts, Ada Lovelace would turn out to be just as corruptable as her notorious father, Lord Byron.

“Plot: A young wife is suddenly widowed. Left with four children. She is totally unskilled for the labor market, and deeply in debt. Her home and all she has are repossessed. However… she has one choice. She is the sole heir to a tremendous fortune. If she can deceive her dying father, and never let him know she is the mother of four children whom he would despise. “Four children are imprisoned in an upstairs room of a huge mansion. Their playground is the attic. The two older children are twelve and ten, named Christopher and Cathy. The younger two are twins, age three when they go to live upstairs.
“Without sunlight, Cory and Carrie cannot grow. Their lives become a virtual endurance test to outlive the dying grandfather, who stays always on the first floor, taken care of by a private duty nurse, and a staff of servants. “The years pass. The grandfather doesn’t die. The mother marries again and gradually drifts away from her children.” In her letter, Virginia emphasizes that the children’s grandmother considers them “the devil’s issue. Born out of unholy wedlock between half-niece and half-uncle. I call my novel, which is not truly fiction… FLOWERS IN THE ATTIC.”

When one of the smartest women in England, Anne Isabella Milbanke, fell in love with the most scandalous, and handsome, creative genius of his time, Lord Byron, the fallout was nothing less than a national scandal. Their young daughter, Ada, was caught in the crossfire. Ada spent her early childhood being used as a bargaining chip in her parents divorce, and a bitter reminder to Anne Milbanke, of Lord Byron's many betrayals. Desperate not to have her daughter turn out like her drunken, whore of an ex-husband, Milbanke insisted on Ada having the most exclusive STEM education money could buy. While Ada still showed the libertine tendencies of her father, she was almost predestined to become the Mother of Computer Science. This week, we look at the turbulent childhood and rigid education that brought Ada Lovelace right up to the doorstep of technological innovation.
