Stud Stories Podcast

From first lipsynchs to who's hotter: uber, lyft or taxi drivers. We get up close and personal with the Queen of Cummies, and San Francisco's Best Drag Queen Winner Nicki Jizz.

On this episode, host VivvyAnne Forevermore speaks with Queer writer and legend, Michelle Tea! We hear about her wild times at The Stud in the 90s, about sobriety, aging and nightlife and about her new Tarot-centric mystical podcast, Your Magic. She also gives The Stud the read of her life- an astrological one!
