  • This week on the podcast Sovereign Syre tells Ela Darling about Phyllis Diller. During her career she became the first female stand up to become a household name, but Phyllis Diller started at the very bottom, a mother of five children married to charismatic loser that was at turns dismissive and abusive. In the 1950s. In her late thirties. Welcome to the first part in our series on one of the most resilient and fascinating women in entertainment.

  • Greetings and welcome to SEASON TWO of ILL REPUTE!

    In 1984, an ambitious photojournalist snuck into Afghanistan to document the refugee crisis there. When he came across a beautiful young Afghan girl with blazing green eyes, he knew he had to get a photo of her...and seventeen years later, would go on a highly publicized search to locate the girl, now a grown woman.

    This week Sovereign Syre tells Ela Darling about how one of the most recognizable photographs ever to appear in National Geographic raises pressing questions about ethics in photojournalism, and the racist beginnings of the National Geographic brand.

  • In the third installment in our series on Calamity Jane, Sovereign Syre tells Ela Darling about the birth of Deadwood. Initially a settlement of a few storefronts and tents, in a period of a few months the town nestled in the Black Hills attracted close to ten thousand citizens. Far from a bustling metropolis, the town was full of outlaws with murders happening in the streets daily. Leaving town wasn't much easier; the recent victory at Little Big Horn had empowered the Native folks who were tired of the encroachments on their sacred hunting grounds, and death was just as likely on the road out of town. Not to mention the ubiquitous threat of road agents, ready to fleece any carriage found traveling alone.

    While Jane was cavorting with oulaws and getting arrested for Drunk and Disorderly on the regular, back East she was featured in one of the most famous dime store novel series of all time: Deadwood Dick.

    And just like that, she became an overnight celebrity.

  • (No. It's not.)

    It’s 1983 and our heroine, an ophthalmologist, is treating a patient with a condition called blepharospasm, a painful neurological disorder that causes involuntary muscle spasms and contractions of the eyelid. After administering a neuromodulator to the affected muscles, a procedure she had performed with her patient many times before, her patient was unhappy. Angry, in fact: the doctor had neglected to treat the area between her eyebrows.

    Apologizing, our doctor explained, “I’m sorry but I didn’t think you were spasming there.” The impatient patient retorted, “I know. I’m not spasming there, but every time you treat me there I get this beautiful untroubled expression.”

    This is how Dr. Jean Carruthers pioneered the cosmetic use of Botulinum Toxin, and thus Botox was born... and the "Discourse" has been ambivalent about its ubiquity ever since.

    Either Botox is anti-feminist because, as one writer for the Washington Post put it, “Every choice to conform to sexist social norms makes it harder for other women to choose otherwise. Every woman who has plastic surgery or Botox or gets her hair dyed or, yes, changes her name makes it harder for other women not to.”

    Or… Botox is just like any other decision women make about their bodies and appearance: an ongoing practice in agency and self-determination that is most competently observed through the lens of Women Making Personal Choices rather than Women Being Personally Responsible for Upending Centuries of Oppression.

  • In her lifetime Calamity Jane was the most famous woman in the world, and her name still evokes the spirit of the WIld West. She has been a character in countless dime novels, television shows, and feature films, and yet all of them were largely fabricated bearing no resemblence to her actual life. In this series on Calamity Jane, we hope to rectify that. In the following episodes we will profile her REAL life, and find that truth is far wilder than fiction.

    In part two of our series, we follow a newly orphaned Jane as she navigates the politics of being a part of the Rolling Scum and her transition into military scout. Including original research by Sovereign Syre, we delve into some theories about what Jane was doing during her "missing years."

    In part one of our series, we chart Jane's early life. Born Martha Jane Canary in Missouri to a hopeless gambler and his teenage wife, a former dancehall girl, Jane was born to run. After the death of her grandfather, the family discovers that Jane's father had been embezzling from his own father to pay for his gambling habit, so with the threat of the law on the way, her father gathered up the family and put them on a wagon train headed for the gold and silver mines of Montana.

    The world they arrive in is dangerous, crowded and filthy, justice is meted out by vigalante committees and outlaws hang by their necks from the gates of every boomtown. It is into this world that Jane will find herself orphaned.

  • In the final installment in our series on Hedy Lamarr, Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling discuss Hedy Lamarr's most famous invention, frequency hopping, and how the US government f*cked her in the deal to the tune of 30 billion dollars. How is it possible that the inventor that brought us WiFi, GPS and Bluetooth never saw a dime? Because she happened to be a dime herself, of course.

  • This week on the pod Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling discuss Borderline Personality Disorder. Why? Because 75% of those diagnosed with BPD are women, and it is the most stigmatized mental illness out there...and according to the literature, the most painful. People who suffer from BPD live twenty years less than their counterparts, and the rate of suicidality is markedly increased. This is an illness attacking women in large numbers, and it has a body count.

    So let's intervene and disrupt the narrative that women with BPD just, never get better.

  • This week, Ela Darling continues to teach Sovereign Syre about Hedy Lamarr. It's the early thirties and the precocious teenager is a rising star in Austrian cinema. After convincing her parents to let her run off to Prague by herself, she is given the starring role in Ecstasy, an erotic masterpiece about a young, sexually repressed wife who finds release in the arms of a lover much younger than her husband. The film set the world ablaze with it's unfettered depiction of the female form and pleasure. The film established her as a star, a rebel, and...an outcast.

  • In 1809, Sarah Baartman, an indentured servant from South Africa, was smuggled into England. She was put on display as the "Hottentot Venus" in Picadilly Square. Dressed in an elaborate costume of next to nothing, she sang and danced, while European onlookers gawked. Abolitionists at the time, saw her treatment as nothing more than trafficking and slavery, which had recently been outlawed in Britain and it's colonies. Sarah Baartman became the first test case of the new laws, and her celebrity was launched into the stratosphere. In our second and final installment on Sarah Baartman we trace her rise to fame and the tragedy that struck after.

  • Before Nicki Minaj, before Kim Kardashian, before Marilyn Monroe, there was a South African woman whose voluptuous physique captured the European imagination. In 1809, Sarah Baartman an indentured servant to a free Black family in Capetown, caught the attention of a British surgeon. The industrious doctor envisioned a theatrical production to end them all, and make him, Sarah, and her employer rich. In part one of this two part series, we talk about where Sarah came from, and how she went from living in a thatched hut with her family in Camdeboo to performing in the African Theater of the bustling metropolis of Capetown, and two mens' audatious plan to smuggle her out of Africa and into Picadilly Square in London.

  • In 1849, Olive Oatman's father sold everything he owned and started out west with his wife and children. He was following a twenty-one year old Mormon prophet in search of Utopia, which he said was located in the middle of the desert somewhere in Arizona. As spiritual tensions broke up the wagon train, and the perils of the journey widdled away at their animals and supplies, the family found themselves on their own, stranded in a war zone.

    In the final installment in our series on J.Z. Knight we document the second rise of Ramtha with the release of the pseudodocumentary "What The Bleep Do We Know?" and her precipitous fall from grace, but not from opulant wealth, as she enters her villain era.
