January 09, 2026
Joining forces on a recent episode of The Exploress Podcast, history professor Hannah Ewing and history major Carly A. Quinn ’17 explore the powerful and notorious sixth-century Byzantine empress Theodora. The podcast is, in part, built on content Quinn had initially encountered in Ewing’s History of a City: Istanbul and Dark Ages? courses years earlier, combining recent expert-interview material with Ewing with narrative elements to tell the empress’ rags-to-riches story.
Since 2021, Quinn has served as co-creator and researcher for the podcast, which host and producer Kate J. Armstrong started in 2018 to explore the lives of historical women. The Exploress Podcast is one of Apple Podcasts’ Top 100 history podcasts globally, with over 20,000 downloads a month and over 1 million total downloads. Listen to the episode.
