In Our Own World

History loves to highlight the loudest voices—but so many brilliant women were the true architects behind revolutions in thought, science, and sound, only to be buried in the footnotes or erased entirely. In this episode, we bring light to the women whose legacies shaped the world—and yet, whose names remain forgotten by most. You’ll meet the woman who taught Socrates—yes, Socrates—laying the intellectual groundwork for Western philosophy. You’ll hear the story of a brilliant human computer whose calculations sent astronauts to the moon while NASA basked in the spotlight. We’ll amplify the legacy of a guitar-slinging powerhouse whose gritty, electrifying playing birthed what we now call rock and roll—long before the genre had a name, long before the men who got famous for her sound. And we'll honor the Mazatec mushroom priestess whose scared psilocybin ceremonies bridged ancient wisdom and modern psychedelic science. These incredible women weren’t just behind the scenes—they built the scenes. It’s time to remember them, honor them, and speak their names for all of the universe to hear.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After an unforgettable meeting in Spain on tour with Karol G, we knew we had crossed paths with someone who is truly special. In this episode, we sit down with the one and only Ella Bric—a singer, songwriter, trumpet virtuoso, and groundbreaking producer who is reshaping the Latin American music scene.

Ella shares her groundbreaking journey, reflecting on her lifelong love of music, the art of producing, and the lessons learned from spending over two years nonstop on the road.

From her ability to blend jazz, soul, and traditional Latin American sounds to her upcoming album on immigration and cultural heritage, Ella Bric’s work is a testament to innovation and storytelling. Oh, and did we mention her trumpet joins the conversation? It sounds absolutely stellar in space.
