Bambi takes over the podcast and tells the story of Elizabeth Schuyler—most known to history and Broadway musical fans as the wife of Mr. Ten Dollar Bill, Alexander Hamilton.

Using the Lin-Manuel Miranda musical as a frame of reference the siblings set the record straight about extraordinary women from the time of the American Revolutionary War.
