Peppermint joins me for our 50th episode.
A mainstay of New York nightlife, Peppermint burst onto the global queer scene as a finalist in RuPaul's Drag Race's ninth season. Soon after, she became the first trans actress to originate a principle role on Broadway, and has starred in dozens of television roles, most recently in Michelle Buteau's Survival of the Thickest on Netflix.
She continues to regularly appear on mainstream news outlets as a powerfully articulate activist for trans folk, and co-hosts Town Hall: A Black Queer Podcast with Bob the Drag Queen.
We discuss music by Kina, Maxwell, and Janet Jackson. Follow Peppermint online.
