This podcast is about the women in history who broke barriers and made history yet you probably have never heard of them. Join us each week for a new episode about a woman or women who fought in wars, were amazing explorers, were pioneers in aviation – women who weren’t in our history books. These were exciting, brave, adventurous women who helped shaped this country. Join me, Kit and my friend Sherlock, as we share the exciting stories of these women whom you will want to know. These are the Badass Women of America.

Martha Gellhorn - Greatest War Correspondent
Martha Gellhorn was one of the greatest war correspondent of the 20th Century.
When she was refused credentials as a reporter to cover the WW2 invasion of Normandy, France, otherwise known as D-Day, she didn't take "no" for an answer.
She stowed away on a hospital ship and was the only woman to be on Omaha Beach on the day of the invasion where she helped military medics tend to the injured and transport them to the nearby hospital ship.
She is a true American hero.
Join Kit and Sherlock to hear about this badass woman who found her own way to a nearly 60 year career as a war correspondent who risked her life to get the story to the American people.
