ILL REPUTE! with Sovereign Syre & Ela Darling

This week, Ela Darling continues to teach Sovereign Syre about Hedy Lamarr. It's the early thirties and the precocious teenager is a rising star in Austrian cinema. After convincing her parents to let her run off to Prague by herself, she is given the starring role in Ecstasy, an erotic masterpiece about a young, sexually repressed wife who finds release in the arms of a lover much younger than her husband. The film set the world ablaze with it's unfettered depiction of the female form and pleasure. The film established her as a star, a rebel, and...an outcast.

In this episode Siouxsie Q and Sovereign Syre discuss the Spanish Flu Pandemic at the turn of the 20th century and the role of nurses in dealing with the brunt of care and life saving measures at the time. We talk live over IG during social distancing of the Covid 19 pandemic currently crossing America.

This week Siousxie Q and Sovereign sit with guest Tara Nephthys Binah to talk about radical rest for Black women, holistic healing and reclaiming feminine energy during a time of great social unrest and chaotic duress.

Oscar Wilde once quipped that "every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future." In this episode of ILL REPUTE! Sovereign and Siouxsie sit down with guest co-hosts Mistress X and Sparkle to talk about Maya Angelou, the smudging of her sex worker past, black womanhood, and the narratives that shape us as women. What makes a hero, and icon, the voice of generation, a saint, a legend? What do these stories tell us about ourselves.
