Actor, writer, producer and drag artist John Epperson joins us to discuss the genesis of the singular Lypsinka. The multi-talented John Epperson is known for his meticulously rehearsed and performed works featuring the Dolores Gray inspired Lypsinka shows first workshopped and debuted in San Francisco at Josie's Cabaret & Juice Joint.

John gives us just a glimpse of the process involved in researching, writing, and producing the mixed media elements featuring, oftentimes, the voice of Barbara Feldon. Then we discuss his work on many performances of stage and film, including his experiences working with George Michael, Thierry Mugler, Joel Schumacher, and Charles Busch - to name just a few.

Linda Simpson joins us to tell us all about her book The Drag Explosion, featuring snapshots of the downtown and East Village drag scene of the late 1980s and early 1990s. We ask her about the history of the _My Comrade_ zine and all about exploring the East Village scene of New York in the 1980’s and 1990’s. Linda brings us backstage memories about RuPaul, Tabboo!, Lypsinka, Leigh Bowery, Lady Bunny, Michael Alig, Coco Peru, Mona Foot, the Pyramid Club, the Palladium, and more.

We have the EGOT of awards show writers! It’s Bruce Vilanch! You might know him from the 90’s reboot of Hollywood Squares, or his contributions to Bette Midler’s shows such as “Clams on the Half Shell” or “Divine Madness.” He has been a recurring guest judge on RuPaul’s Drag Race, but we have him all to ourselves this week.  

We talk to him about The Fabulous Allan Carr, and he gives us some insight into working with Allan on the infamous 1989 Oscars. He tells us all about the good stuff that got cut from the show and what inspired some of the cringier moments.

We have Landon Cider, the studly, glamorous, ghoulish Drag King and winner of Season 3 of The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula! We hear about the countless talented kings that have preceded Landon, the fantasy of masculinity (it’s more than just grabbing your dick and waving it around!) and the inspiration behind Landon and how he fell in love with the transformative elements of makeup. Also, why is Marc always picking on RuPaul? We get Landon’s take on representation on RPDR.

We have Miz Cracker and she tells us about touring her show ‘She’s a Woman’ all across the US and Canada (as soon as it is safe) and we find out about how she became an advocate and activist for women’s rights. We ask Miz Cracker about her take on misogyny in the world of drag. Then Marc’s High School Drama club can’t help but try to stir the Drag Race pot and we have to know about Miz Cracker’s favorite lip synchs and least favorite eliminations.

Miz Cracker’s song ‘Eight Days of You’ ft. Jujubee is featured with permission by the artist.

We can hardly contain ourselves because we have the B-52’s Cindy Wilson on Drag Time with Heklina! We find out what Cindy is up in Athens, Georgia while we wait for the world to begin again. First, we hear from her cow Lollipop! Then Cindy tells us about the joy of creating music with her brother Ricky Wilson and the rest of the B-52’s. Marc’s High School Drama Club has questions! Find out what is behind that iconic line “Tin Roof, Rusted!” and what the B’s really thought about working with a fellow Georgian, RuPaul, on the “Love Shack” video. Then we remember Ricky. Cindy is in the kitchen with two recipes including hot-iron-skillet-banana-cornbread! Hold the sugar please! Then she tells us all about how to make and responsibly enjoy her “Terence McKenna Iced Tea”...just a tip for the listeners, one woman’s micro-dose is another woman’s weird day!

Willam is here! She recollects the one time she made Heklina extremely uncomfortable on stage, tells us all about working on A Star is Born with Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper, and Shangela. We find out how Willam is spending her time and it turns out it’s just working constantly! We are joined by Aunt Jukie and discuss minimizing risk while getting laid in the age of corona. Special thanks to Sherry Vine for the use of her PARODY of Laura Branigan's hit Gloria about using glory holes as safer sex during Corona. Which Marc found out IS NOT one of the first 10 things that comes up if you google Sherry Vine Gloryhole.

We have Bianca Del Rio! We find out all about her recent world tour and what it's like to be the first drag queen to ever play Wembley Stadium. We asked the hard hitting questions about XL, Tan Mom (remember Tan Mom?), Hot Mess, and to verify the legend of what inspired Bianca Del Rio to first make a go of RuPaul's Drag Race. She inspires us with some quarantine reading and streaming recommendations you don't want to miss. We hear about Peaches Christ's obvious conspiracy to cast Heklina in the worst parts in all of her shows. Then we get some great advice from Bianca about how to anticipate the dangers and protect yourself... if you should ever receive a phone call from Lady Bunny.

Flloyd joins us! He is a visual, musical, and performance artist living and recording with us from the East Village. He tells us all about coming to New York from Atlanta in the mid-1980’s, where he met and collaborated with a pre-VH1/Supermodel RuPaul. First, Flloyd regales us with an historic tour of his memories from inside the club and party scenes of NYC, including a particular account of “the most glamorous party of all time” captured in the Nelson Sullivan tapes. We talk about Leigh Bowery, Anohni, Hattie Hathaway, Marti Domination, and Black Lips, the Butthole Surfers, and Larry Tee’s Now Explosion. Listen-in to find out the three books that Flloyd found on RuPaul’s bookshelf when they first met and her attempts to exercise complete mind control (!) and become the Queen of the Universe!

We catch up with Lady Bunny and find out all about what's happening in her weird and wonderful world. She tells us all about filming a music video with Christeene, writing a new song, and then... Thanks to a very special call-in guest, Lady Bunny takes us back to the good old days (emphasis on old), when she and RuPaul first went to New York and performed as go-go dancers.

Alaska Thunderfuck is here! We spend a little time catching up about the tits-up-only world of virtual drag and reminisce a lot about a time when you could still get peed on in person during a real world drag show. Heklina tells us some of her favorite memories of a young Alaska making her West Coast drag debut. We find out everything we can about Heklina and Alaska's favorite Golden Girls episodes. Alaska tells us all about her old job and recent role in the 2019 Netflix documentary Circus of Books and the importance of gay bookstores in gay culture. We catch up on Alaska's take on this season's RuPaul's Drag Race, and find out about Alaska's twice-weekly podcast with Willam RACE CHASER. Then Marc asks Alaska the controversial questions that people Google about her. Listen in for loads of fun!
