About this listen

Who are the Lister Sisters, you may ask? We’re a group numbering in the thousands from more than 40 countries, all united by the impact of Anne Lister, honored as the first modern lesbian, even before that word existed in her time. The very personal impacts of Anne Lister’s legacy have united women in friendship, and sisterhood. There is so much to share, so much to chat about. This is my humble contribution to encourage conversations with our community. I’m Sue Britz, and I invite you to join us for Lister Sister Conversations!Sue Britz Social Sciences

  • Lister Sister Conversations Ep. 005: Jan & Vicki Part 2
    Jan 9 2026

    Like Ann Walker, who saw in Anne Lister someone with the courage to fully live her own life, so too, do Lister Sisters who get to gain courage through friendships with each other. Two people, like Vicki & Jan, who on paper may seem not to have much in common, wind up with friendships that change lives. Differences allow us to see other perspectives and experiences with new understanding.

  • Lister Sister Conversations Ep. 004: Jan & Vicki
    Jan 7 2026

    The story of Anne & Ann can close 4,000 miles distance to bring people together and create a friendship like Jan & Vicki have. It was the impact of 'Gentleman Jack' and the social media communities that grew that led these two together. It is their shared sense of humor that Vicki says is the reason that, "We got on like a house on fire!" They have become best friends that talk every day and their generational and cultural differences serve to enrich their friendship and growth.

  • Lister Sister Conversations Ep. 003: Steph Mc Stea
    Dec 26 2025

    As the true red jacket volunteer that she is, Steph says that, "People see bits and pieces of themselves in Anne." That's what keeps her, like so many, returning time and again to Shibden Hall. Steph talks about being an artist whose drawings are "like keeping a diary, in a way," providing her with the ability to relive the many stories and experiences that going to the Anne Lister festivals provides. Finding community, instantly feeling a part of something, gives the sense of coming home.
