Strange Country


Sometimes you need to have a glass of wine, cuppa whatever and listen to a good old weird story. Musical score Resting Place by A Cast of Thousands.

Mar 12, 2020

Yes it ain’t. That is Kelly and Beth’s stance on womanhood fun these days. Listen in as we discuss the sad but true tale of Brittany Smith of Alabama. We read this article "How Far Can Abused Women Go to Protect Themselves" in The New Yorker and got damn angry. But you Dash Hounds know it doesn’t take much to get us riled up. Thank you always for listening and we hope this short and angry episode is a small distraction from the germ-filled world around us.

Theme music: To Be A Woman by A Cast of Thousands
