Did you know that goths have the lowest "life satisfaction levels" of any subculture? We here at Gutter Boys work with goths at various locations around the US to bring out their hidden potential. Fortunately, this week's guest isn't plagued by this rampant epidemic and is in fact already well on her way to the top. Bianca Xunise is a Chicago-based cartoonist known for her contributions to the nationally syndicated comic strip Six Chix as well as multiple strips for various publications including The Nib, Vogue, and the Washington Post. We talk about her early life as a cartoonist, her influences and motivations, how she got into comics, and her current project and upcoming book Punk Rock Karaoke which will debut in 2023 from Viking Press.

You can follow Bianca on Instagram and Twitter @biancaxunise or check out her website and Patreon.
