Welcome to the moth.
I'm Kate tellers.
March is Women's History Month,
which in the US honors women's vital contributions to American history, culture and society.
Of course, these contributions are too numerous to be uniquely celebrated in one month,
and certainly not on one podcast.
So let's take one moment for the US Olympic women's hockey team, shall we phenomenal women.
And now for two stories of women who faced challenges and womaned up.
First,
Allison Stewart told this story when she hosted a New York City main stage where the theme was Only in New York.
Here's Allison live at the moment.
I had a very fancy day planned in New York in February of 2024.
I was scheduled to have breakfast with the head of the Brooklyn Museum.
to discuss their 20th to 100th celebration.
It was a great celebration they had planned.
I wanted to support it.
It was a beautiful buffet, pretty room.
There were about six of us seated around the table.
The music director, she talked a bunch and I nodded a lot.
I just really didn't feel like saying that much.
