Ghastly Women
Join Lily and Esther each week as they dive into a whirlwind of chaos, rants, singing, and sheer unhinged insanity. What began as an attempt to highlight the strength of women through the lens of those who've done ghastly things has transformed into an unpredictable journey through Lily's perverse ramblings and Esther's Tudor-inspired musical interludes.
In each episode, they aim to discuss a notorious woman, but often get delightfully sidetracked. Along the way, they explore their fictional cult fantasies, belt out an array of tunes, and employ a hilariously problematic grading system that defies all logic.
