Women of War is a new podcast from PHA members Hannah Viney and Nicola Ritchie on the women who lived, fought, loved, and died during wars throughout history. Slightly irreverent, mostly factual, and thoroughly interesting, Women of War profiles different women each fortnight to answer the question: what were the women doing? Subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or on your favourite podcast app. Find Women of War on social media @womenofwarpod for updates, teasers of future episodes and other interesting tidbits about women in war.
