Hi our amazing Icons!
Welcome back to our first regular episode in 3 weeks! This week, we go over the story of Joan of Arc and how she became one of the greatest martyrs in history.

Anddd we have a scheduling update! We're changing our episode release day from every Thursday to every Monday, starting on Monday, 25 November. We aim to keep learning and adjusting in these early days to continue to create something that we're proud of and to give you consistency and reliability. Mondays seem to work a lot better for us and our schedules outside of the pod, so count on that! And thank you for your patience (:

We love you and we hope you love this episode! <3

Hey there, Icons
This week's Episode is another short one. The last few weeks have been kinda crazy for us and we wanted to say thank you for your continued patience as we catch up and get back to our usual content (:

The results of this year's election were devastating for the tens of millions of Americans who voted for hope and change. It's valid to feel sad, defeated, and so, so angry. However, this is far from the end.
In this episode, we briefly discuss our post- election emotions as we conceptualized our new reality. Then, we dive into how we aim to move forward with awareness, hope, and action.
Our purpose and love for this podcast is stronger than ever before and we promise to be the best activists, allies, and agents for change that we can be.
We love you and we hear you, we're in this together <3

Hellooooo Icons! Welcome to a bit of an unconventional episode from us.
After last week's interview audio went awry, we've been working towards rescheduling, re-recording, and getting a new episode out to you asap! However, with that taking a bit longer than we anticipated, we wanted to release something for you in the meantime. Something small, yet hopefully impactful.
Welcome to a mini episode on voting. In just a few days, on November 5th, we'll experience an election that is sure to make history. In lieu of that, we wanted to produce a crash- course episode on where our voting rights came from and the importance of casting your ballot and making your voice heard on election day.
We hope you like it and we'll see y'all again on Thursday (:
Stay Iconic and go vote!!
