This was a really fantastic podcast with Cassandra Peterson, the real Elvira, Mistress of the Dark! It was fascinating to hear about her friends, particularly Joey Arias who hired her to be the barista at the legendary Fiorucci store in NYC! It was also fun to learn about her relationship with her gal pal, drag queen assistant Christian Greenia!
