This week, Chloe brings us the story of not one... not two... but THREE broads you should know, and they're together in this episode because they all have one thing in common: they were indestructible.
Joy Andrew is likely turning 100 this year. And one thing's for sure—it was not an easy journey. She was almost assassinated. Her plane crashed into the desert. She beat COVID. And that's not even the whole story!
Check out the episode to hear about Joy, Margery, & Richmodis, why they were indestructible, and why they're most definitely Broads You Should Know.
