Ha.We Relatives!
This week I’m joined by Indigenous drag legends Lady Shug and Oliver Herface, fresh from the First Nations Performing Arts Winter Party here, in Lenapehoking!

From Lady Shug’s groundbreaking appearance on HBO’s We’re Here - the first time I ever saw Indigenous drag on a major network, to Oliver Herface’s work as a Two-Spirit Boricua drag king, producer, and cultural force in Brooklyn, this episode is all about visibility, joy, and decolonizing the stage.

We talk drag, ceremony, community, salsa, sideshow, and what it means to hold space for our people while living fully in our truth.

Thank you to First Nations Performing Arts and Performance Space New York for hosting an unforgettable all-Indigenous drag night.
