Entertained, educated, and impressed
Listening to the Art History Babes feels just like I'm back in grad school, discussing art, culture, and feminism with my friends. As a previous grad student in art history, I was looking for a podcast to listen to on the commute to my sadly not-art-history-related job. I wanted something that would keep me connected to the study of art but also the camaraderie that comes with a good bottle of wine and crying over our theses. While I studied art history for years, the Babes have taught me so much in a way that is both entertaining but immensely informative (I can tell you anything about medieval art but nothing about Yoko Ono - until now!). Even the topics I know well are discussed in a way that makes me want to join in on the conversation; the topics I might know less of, I can understand even without always seeing the referenced images. By having four different viewpoints, the artists and concepts I already know are made more complex and sometimes far more interesting than some of the courses I've taken. I have laughed out loud, cried, and debated with the Art History Babes, wanting nothing more than a glass of wine and a seat at their table. If you're new to the world of art history, prepare to learn a lot about artists, history, and feminism in a fascinating way. And if you're not new to discussing Raphael and abstract expressionism, prepare to feel like you're back in your grad lounge - in the best way possible.Read full review »

It feels like a chat with your best friends. For me, it fills the art history void in my life since graduating from college. Thanks...Read full review »

The Art History Babes bring back the joy of art history to every topic they tackle. They are wonderful storytellers and listening to their banter makes you feel like you're one of the group. As another Babe getting her MA in the arts I can say that these women have their facts down while also...Read full review »
