Welcome to STEAMpunks!

Join wife and husband Emily and Zach Shock as they explore the lives of women in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math throughout history!

For the subject of our first episode, we chose Ada Lovelace - the first computer programmer. And not just the first woman computer programmer - the first one. Period. Of any and all genders! How did she accomplish this in 19th century London? Listen to find out!

Further reading:
- Ada Lovelace: Computer Programmer and Mathmetician by Avery Elizabeth Hurt
- Wonder Women: 25 Innovators, Inventors and Trailblazers Who Changed History by Sam Maggs
- Enchantress of Numbers: A Novel of Ada Lovelace by Jennifer Chiaverini

Huge thanks to the band The Crypts for the use of their song Marie Curie (which is licensed under CC BY 4.0) for our intro and outro.

*Note: Sorry about the audio - we promise it will be much better in episode 2, the first Wednesday of May 2019
