  • Rags To Dishes 47: "Reverse Bigotry"

    In this weeks edition of Rags To Dishes, Alexandra Walsh better known by some as "Feathers" joins the show to share some "Hot Tea" that everyone is so enthralled by. Feathers had a short run at the infamous establishment as well as some other establishments as well. Currently working for the fabulous Arcadia Pizza in West Greenwich, Feathers says life is good working at a respectable place unlike her previous job at Newport's own Pour Judgement Bar& Grill. A favorite amongst those that drink beer in the former slave capital of the world Pour Judgement seems to be a fitting name as some of their shady past will come to light after hearing Feathers' testimony. Max also apologizes to all the ugly people out there.
