Buster’s Beat: Episode 13 – Back To The Scum Circuit 💚👑

The kings are back in town, and we’re diving headfirst into the chaos 💥

In this special reunion episode, Buster Pants is joined by the incomparable drag king, burlesque performer, and certified witchy babe, Dick Kayin, for a spicy, smart, and wildly unfiltered conversation.

🔥 Topics include:

The radical roots of drag and burlesque

- Venus in Fury and what “feminine rage” really means

- The weird straightification of the Village People

- Drag race discourse & whether kings even should be on TV

- Community infighting, gatekeeping, and reclaiming queer unity

- Aging in queer nightlife

This episode is a love letter to the scum circuit: the DIY, punk rock, community-centered queer scene that raised us — and the one we’re fighting to preserve.

✨ Drag is political. Rage is sacred. And queer joy is resistance. ✨
