Biting All The Apples
Biting All The Apples is a podcast about books, power, and the stories we’ve been handed. Hosted by JV & SK, two women recording from rural & red America, it looks at feminist texts, radical history, and culture with curiosity and a sense of humor.
Each season takes on influential works from the past and present to ask what they got right, what they missed, and why it still matters now.
For anyone interested in how ideas shape the world, and how to think about them a little differently.
