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.

Við elskum þig, Raja! It means ‘We Love You, Raja!’ in Icelandic and we really do love her. She’s the winner of Season 3 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, and the very first Asian American to win a Drag Race franchise title in 2011. We discuss Asian representation on Drag Race and the big changes that television brought to her career. Raja is kind of a big deal and has even guest starred as herself on The Simpsons. Because she is so iconic, we had to ask her about her influences including her time working as a fashion forward makeup artist for industry giants such as Iman, Twiggy, Adam Lambert, Tyra Banks, and more!

Rock M. Sakura is here! She competed on Season 12 of RuPaul’s Drag Race and she tells us all about the inspiration behind their costumes and performances. We ask Rock M if they think there really is a “San Francisco curse” on Drag Race. After being sent home second they are still serving encouragement and advice for any queen from San Francisco who wants to compete on Drag Race. Then they tell us why it was important for them to acknowledge their own history of sex work, following a series of attacks on Asian American sex workers. 

Jackie Cox is here to tell you all about JackieVision! her all-new solo tour, premiering September 2021 and inspired by the Emmy-nominated Disney+ series, WandaVision.

Jackie used to live in SF and we chat about Cookie Dough and her days performing at The Edge. She catches us up on her podcast, “It Do Take Nerd” brought to you by World of Wonder, and how a nerd identity can be healthy and inclusive for queer people. Then we talked about our shared love of classic television, including how she grew up on Nick at Nite reruns like Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, and Brady Bunch. We find out exactly what kind of nerd Jackie and I are… and it turns out that Marc is a Murder She Wrote nerd!

Jackie tell us all about working with Lisa Rinna and bringing back her RPDR S.12 “Snatch Game” Lisa Rinna to the new Days of Our Lives miniseries!

GGGGG! We have Latrice Royale! She tells us all about what’s going on in South Florida. She’s a QVC mogul now so we get an update on Latrice products.

We ask her all about what it was like to be on Celebrity Family Feud (S6, Ep.3) with RuPaul, Carson Kressley, Latrice Royale, Michelle Visage, and Raven-David Petruschin.

We had to ask about The Chop with Manila Luzon, a twice weekly critique podcast of Drag Race (International)!

Marc’s (Now Adult) High School Drama Club is back! Latrice gives us a lesson in the theatre! Make sure you listen-in and find out how to make an audience lose their minds and what she wants to see in the future of drag.

We catch up with Pandora Boxx and give our predictions for the re-opening of drag and the quest for coin! She tells us about her debut on RuPaul’s Drag Race back in 2009 and the popularity of drag then and now. We ask her all about coming out in Rochester, New York — the drag hometown of Miss Darienne Lake and Mrs. Kasha Davis. She tells us all about working Club Marcella and gives us a history lesson on the happenings of Rochester’s Midtown Plaza. We ask her all about her writing including the theatrical fan favorite murder mystery/b-horror comedy, “The Lipstick Massacre” — and we talk about her heartwarming piece “My Queer Trek” recently published by StarTrek.com. We get way into the weeds on what we are watching including some of our favorite horror movies. There are so many that I love, but listen in to find out! We love Pandora Boxx! 

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.
