Dishing with Buff Faye

New Drag Artistry: Rising Stars


Listen Later

Lights up, dolls — because Buff Faye and Giovonni D. Diamond are BACK, and this episode is serving chaos, comedy, and a whole lot of JUICE. 

Buff and Gio kick things off with their signature nonsense, and baby… it escalates quickly. Gio is still on the market (applications now open), and the
conversation spirals into the wild world of chasers, twinks, bears, and way too much oversharing. From “educational” moments that absolutely no one asked for to Gio’s conspiracy theory that fashion designers might secretly be chasers, the duo proves once again that nothing is off-limits. Is it too much? Yes. Are we still listening? Also yes.

But beneath the mess, there’s magic. The spotlight turns to rising talent as
special guest Venus Wyre joins the conversation — a true new drag artistry
powerhouse making waves in Charlotte and beyond. From creating drag in her bedroom in Memphis, Tennessee to stepping into her own as a booked and buzzworthy performer, Venus shares how her passion evolved into purpose after moving to Charlotte to attend Queens University.

Buff and Venus dive into her journey of self-discovery through drag, the influence of ballroom culture, dancing, and duck walking, and how fashion and upcycling have become central to her creative expression. Venus opens up about the importance of originality, pushing beyond your comfort zone, and building something that is uniquely yours. Their conversation also revisits how they first connected, reflects on the ball scene (including Buff’s first ball win), and celebrates what it means to be a rising star while staying grounded in authenticity and artistry.

And of course, the episode wraps with a fierce round of YASSSS QUEEN or NOT TODAY SATAN — because judgment is part of the fantasy.
From messy dating talk to meaningful mentorship, rising stars to ridiculous stories, this episode is hilarious, inspiring, and unapologetically unfiltered.
Hit play, get into the fantasy, and start Dishing with Buff Faye. Eat it up!
