We’re addicted to salsa verde. This green, garlicky Mexican sauce gets its green color not from green tomatoes, but from tomatillos, a green tangy fruit that’s closely related to cape gooseberries. When it comes to putting them on enchiladas, or in this case pork enchiladas, they are out of this world.
Joining us is Shea Coulee– a queen from Chicago who recently exploded on the scene, Shea is well known for taking odds and ends and turning it into high couture. Like Alaska, she finds trash and literally turns it into treasure.

Watching a horror movie can be very therapeutic. You get to experience terror without any real danger and you get to scream real loud. Unfortunately, Hollywood shamefully capitalizes on the audience’s latent transphobia by centering horror films around transgender killers.
In real life, transgender people are usually the victims of heinous crimes instead of the perpetuators. Today, Parker Marie Molloy joins us to take a look at transgender movie villains.

One of the most memorable entrances on any reality TV show was on RuPaul’s Drag Race, when Vivacious entered the workroom sporting a second head made from a foam wig stand. After what seemed like forever, Vivacious unzipped her green jacket to reveal her own face, snapping a paper fan at the queens declaring “Mother has arrived!”
Listen as we talk with Vivacious about why she was so flabbergasted being around RuPaul, the extended family of Ornacia and why she prefers to perform in the crowd instead of the stage.
