A Therapist Walks Into a Bar

Be Someone Else


Listen Later

When performing is a normal part of all our lives, on stage or off, what does it mean to be authentic? What is a “true self”? I’m hoping an opera singing drag performing therapist, some strangers in a bar, and a dead psychoanalyst can help me figure it out.
This episode features San Francisco drag performing artist, Dusty Porn (aka San Francisco psychotherapist Paul Ziller).
To watch Dusty's performance in the Miss California Gold Pageant this year, follow this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTzs5sbZ5nw&feature=youtu.be

Thank you to The Little Shamrock, one of San Francisco's oldest bars, and the strangers there who opened up to me.
