161: Gone Shopping [Wild Women pt.2: Forty Elephants, Mary Carr, Alice Diamond, Maggie Hughes]
About this episode
This episode explores the notorious Forty Elephants gang and their leading female figures in London's criminal history.
Be a girl, do crime! This week Maia takes us to the streets of London and snitches on a girl gang with sticky fingers. The Forty Elephants gang was notorious for the crimes they pulled off. Using their wits, charm, and a eye for the most valuable merchandise in the store this all-girl group had no problem slipping out whatever they liked most. We also take a closer look at a few of the leading Queens like Mary Carr (subject of A Thousand Blows on Disney/Hulu), Alice Diamond, Maggie Hughes, and Shirley Pitts. Find out how they did (and the rules they lived by), this week on Well, I Laughed! 00:00:00 Catch-Up 00:21:07 Gone Shopping 00:32:27 The Riot 00:42:59 The Dynasty 00:47:52 The Process 01:13:10 Hoister Code 01:16:19 The Queens: Mary Carr 01:23:44 The Queens: Alice Diamond 01:34:40 The Queens: Maggie Hughes 01:40:35 Legacy Connect with Us Website: wellilaughed.com Support us on Patreon: https://patreon.com/WellILaughedPodcast Email us at wellilaughedpod@gmail.com Instagram: @wellilaughed Tiktok: @wellilaughed Facebook: Well, I Laughed Podcast YouTube: Well, I laughed
