Welcome to Town Hall: A Black Queer Podcast, where we explore themes through storytelling, music, poetry, and art—navigating deep emotions with a touch of humor. In this episode, Peppermint and Bob the Drag Queen celebrate Trans Joy, spotlighting the creativity, resilience, and brilliance of trans artists and trailblazers.

First, we meet Saturn, a multidisciplinary artist who has graced stages at Outside Lands Festival, LA Pride, and Boiler Room, along with solo performances across major cities.

Next, we hear from Star Amerasu, a visionary writer, composer, and director who reflects on her love for creation in all its forms. Finally, we are honored to welcome icon Laverne Cox, a trailblazer who has redefined trans visibility in media and advocacy with grace and unapologetic truth. Join us as we honor the vibrancy of trans joy and the power of living authentically.
