Did you know that London had an all-women gang for at least 80 years through the 19th and 20th centuries (perhaps even for 175 years!) Neither did we! Their story seems to be a footnote in history but these gals were fierce and one of London's most feared gangs. Laurel introduces us to the gang, their potentially long history as well as their glamorous queens who led the group with military precision and an iron fist. Next, Kt takes us to Hawaii to meet the amazing man who brought surfing to the world, Duke Kahanamoku. He was a world record swimmer, surfer and Olympian and is an enduring example of aloha to the world.
