The episode explores the powerful and notorious sixth-century Byzantine empress Theodora and is, in part, built on content Quinn had initially encountered in Ewing’s History of a City: Istanbul and Dark Ages? courses years earlier, combining recent expert-interview material with Ewing with narrative elements to tell the empress's rags-to-riches story. The episode is available here.

Since 2021, Quinn has served as co-creator and researcher for the podcast, which host and producer Kate J. Armstrong started in 2018 to explore the lives of historical women. The Exploress Podcast is one of Apple Podcasts’s Top 100 history podcasts globally, with over 20,000 downloads a month, and over 1 million total downloads.
