  • Summary

  • In this episode we explore the extraordinary life of Anne Lister better known as Gentleman Jack, a daring lesbian diarist from the early 1800s, who documented her romantic, carnal adventures and pioneering spirit across Europe. Known for her sharp wit, rebellious nature, and a unique secret code she developed at private school, Lister's diaries reveal the boldness of a woman who defied society’s norms. Autistic-coded, gothic, and unapologetically tomboyish, Anne balanced her love for high society with scaling mountain ranges in her signature black petticoats and men's boots all while recording over 1 million words in her many diaries which she systematically filled throughout her life. Join us as we uncover the hidden life and love stories of this trailblazing figure in LGBTQIA+ history!
