From the Audubon Bon Bons to the Ventures, to the Bandettes, we explore how these ensembles carved out space in a male-dominated activity, often facing structural bias and cultural erasure. This episode honors the pioneers who marched, spun, and led without apology—and asks what their stories mean for today's gendered systems in DCI and beyond.
