Season 4 Trailer
We're back babyyyyy! It's been three centuries but Women of War is back soon. From photographers in WWII to the Taiping Rebellion (no photojournalists there), we discuss the women across history and how they navigated life during war. (Please ignore this trailer was clearly recorded in Australian summer and it is now nearly winter, time is meaningless in 2026). We're excited to be back!

S4E1: The Woman in Hitler’s Bathtub: Lee Miller and Documenting the Holocaust for Vogue
Before she was Kate Winslet, Lee Miller was a groundbreaking surrealist photography artist and photojournalist. You probably know the famous photograph of her in Hitler's abandoned bathtub, washing the mud from Dachau off, hours after she had witnessed (and photographed) the liberation of the concentration camp. Join Hannah and Nicola for Season 4 (we're back, baby!) as they discuss how a model from Poughkeepsie became a war correspondent for fashion magazine Vogue and ended up taking some of the most important photos of the Holocaust. Women of War is written and recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders, past and present, and any First Nations listeners today. Sovereignty was never ceded. This episode contains mentions of sexual abuse and rape, suicide, atrocities committed by the Nazis in WWII, the Holocaust, and surrealist art. Listener discretion is advised. It may not be suitable for all listeners. Statements made within this podcast are ours alone and do not reflect the views of our employers.

S3E8: The Brawling, Boisterous, Scottish Wench — Agnes Randolph and the Siege of Dunbar
Poor William Montague. He thought he'd have an easy time taking control of Dunbar Castle in 1338. Sucks for him that Agnes Randolph was in charge and about to find new ways to humiliate his attempts. Join Hannah and Nicola for the Season 3 Finale as they head to Scotland to find out what one woman was doing in the Second War of Scottish Independence. Women of War is written and recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders, past and present, and any First Nations listeners today. Sovereignty was never ceded. This episode contains references to the crimes of English colonisation.
