My Guest this week is NYC nightlife main stay Linda Simpson! Linda is a nightlife personality, media maven, performer, game-show hostess and drag documentarian and author! She is here to discuss her incredible coffee table book "Drag Explosion" that documents New York City's drag scene in the 1980's and 1990's through Linda's own photos. We discuss Linda's memories of that time, the evolution of the drag scene culminating in a fever pitch in the mid 1990's, the magazine she started at that time called "My Comrade," her weekly club night, "Channel 69," her friendship with Ru Paul, and I even ask her for some advice!

My friend Dan is on the podcast this week for a conversation that kicks off with the sanctity of marriage and what it takes to be in an open relationship before taking a turn into hilariously misheard song lyrics. We chat about an interesting sexual encounter I had recently. Dan and I then compare meth orgy invitations we've received on the apps. We have a spirited debate about what it means to be part of the gay "community." Dan then shares his harrowing real-life tale of an erection lasting longer than 4 hours and more!
