Today, we have a bittersweet announcement: listeners, we have reached the end of season one, making this a season finale for our bright-eyed and bushy tailed project… possibly a series finale. This episode is going to be a little different. Instead of running a single interview, we’re actually going to be running two interviews—two catch up chats with some of our favorite guests on the show, just to investigate where they were when we first found them, and what they’ve been up to since their episode aired.

For the first time, I’m writing a bio completely off the top of my head because, for my family, this week’s guest is a hero. Our guest, Margaret Cho is a comedian, activist, actress, and so much more. She has helped create ground-breaking television shows such as All American Girl, and nine notorious comedy specials. She has uplifted people who feel like misfits, including queer people like me. And she's here to tell us all about how she got to where she is today.

Audrey Finney: Sell What You Love!
Audrey Finney is the marketing guru for my current "She's a Woman" tour. But to say that she is just a "marketer" would be an understatement. She has spent the majority of her life traveling the world, listening to music, and telling people why they should too. She’s a branding brainiac with a knack for artistic organization and controlled chaos—she has organized countless tours and events.

Victoria Scone is a fantastically talented drag queen who hails from Cardiff in Wales. But she’s also a groundbreaking figure because she is the first cis woman to compete on RuPaul’s Drag Race. For anyone who's new to drag, you heard me right—she's a woman who dresses as a woman. Or should I say as a WOMAAAAAN. Scone’s time on Drag Race was cut short by an injury, but everyone is praying she’ll be welcomed back for another season. Today Scone is a touring artist, an influencer, an icon in my eyes. But as she puts it, she’s simply a “celesbian.”

If you take a scroll through TikTok's For You page on any given day, you'll likely encounter footage of Caitlin Reilly doing what she does best: impersonating people you love to hate. The 31-year-old actress catapulted herself into the TikTok spotlight in 2020, attracting nearly 2 millions followers who can't get enough of the painfully accurate and oddly specific characters she's created. She attracted the attention of this podcast because not only is she hilarious, but her parodies sometimes have an important point: they often critique how women are portrayed in film and television. And we love that.

Since graduating from Yale in 1967, Judith Bernstain has developed a reputation as one of the most unwaveringly provocative artists of her generation. Steadfast in her cultural, political, and social critique for over 50 years, Bernstein surged into art world prominence in the early 1970s with her monumental charcoal drawings of objects that look like a cross between a penis and a screw. Early incarnations of these drawings were exhibited at AIR Gallery, Brooklyn Museum, and MoMA P.S.1, among other institutions. Today she creates incredible large-scale paintings that glow with color, incorporate massive vaginas as well, and address the politics of our time fearlessly.

It has always made her sad to hear people complain that vintage is too fancy or costume-y to be worn everyday. For her, vintage clothes are very versatile.

Kim-Joy is best known for her turn on The Great British Bake Off. Her birthday falls on World Baking Day, which she takes as the surest sign there can be that she was born to bake. Born in Belgium to an English father and Malaysian–Chinese mother, she grew up in London, studied in both Bristol and Leeds, and now lives in Leeds with her partner. She has an open attitude to all styles of baking, loving rustic baking just as much as she loves creating cute bakes with an emphasis on detail. But her story is a little more complicated than you might think—she’s an advocate for mental health whose life has taken many turns.
