Episode description

Jospehine Bake lived a full life, so much so that it was impossible to fit the bisexual, burlesque icon's story into just one episode! So welcome to part one, where we learn all about how Josephine went from dirt poor to dancing in Paris, one of the celebrated performes of the Jazz era, and who liked Willy so much she married to of them!
