A lot of our long term listeners will appreciate hearing from Victoria Lamarr, one of our favorite early guests on the show when we started podcasting in 2005.
Before there was YouTube and video podcasts on iTunes, Victoria Lamarr was one of the first drag queen and to our knowledge the first person living with full blown AIDS to video blog.
Over the years, Victoria has come in and out of our lives as she struggled with depression and HIV. But right now, she’s back and she has a new lease on life.
Victoria’s got a secret! Want to know what it is? For the past month she’s been transitioning to living full-time as a woman.
For V-Marr, this is a new a new chapter in her life. For us, it’s having a friend we’ve known for years come to the realization that they are happier as a woman. This doesn’t happen every day.
Listen as we find out if it easier for Victoria to come out twenty years ago as gay and HIV or is it easier to come out as trans woman today.
Join us for this and all the hot news;
We can really hear you now.

Hi Fausto & Marc, it was the both of U including Victoria LaMarr that influenced me to start my own podcast back in 2005! i no longer podcast, but i will never forget how great your show was and continues to be absolutely fabulous! much love – Dag
Go, Victoria! Congrats on this new self-discovery
thank you Angela
You’re welcome, V-Marr! And just a random note, your joke about going into politics is perfectly valid here in New Zealand. Our very own Georgina Beyer was the world’s first openly trans mayor and Member of Parliament! And she’s unemployed at the mo, so maybe y’all can go on tour together.
Go V-Marr! there is an obvious joy in your voice! Thanks for sharing with us.

Hi V! You look fabulous! The weird thing is that I always thought that you were trans and when they announced it I was like: uhhh I was wrong all this time?
Guys? Were you read that we have trans bathrooms here in Brazil? I never saw it and I’m a big fag hag. The only time that I saw something similar was when I went to a major gay club and they just had one big bathroom with an old lesbo “taking care” of everything.
Oh V-marr, you’re a jem. The first episode that I ever listened to, way back in 2005/2004 (it was in the 120s), was with you. I’m so glad you’re still raising hell. And congratulations on making the change, you’re already a wonderful woman.
