Manage episode 457204418 series 2563053
Over the years, we have covered powdered faced hags, candle-clad saints, and the first-nameless Mrs. Clause. This year, we are bringing two new figures to the wintry women cannon! Emily tells the tale of Grýla, an Icelandic giantess who eats children. But why is she so nasty? From lay-about husbands to prankster sons, Grýla has plenty to be pissy about. Then, Kelley tells the story of Beira, the Scottish Queen of Winter and creator goddess. All of her powers couldn't make up for her deep insecurity. To deal with that, she turned to kidnapping and an endless war with her son. Get ready to hike through 12 feet of herstory because it's time to wine!
