Death, Sex & Money - Bob the Drag Queen says Polyamory is Expensive

Death, Sex & Money - Bob the Drag Queen says Polyamory is Expensive

If you lived in Columbus, Georgia in the 90s, you might remember a queer club called Sensations. But Bob the Drag Queen knew Sensations by day, not night – she was in elementary school when her mom owned the place. Bob eventually moved to New York City, and now, she’s an international stand-up comedian and drag star.

In this episode, Bob talks to Anna about turning her big ideas into iconic side hustles, trying to move her family into a bigger home, and supporting and collaborating with queer and trans people in small U.S. towns as a co-host of the HBO reality show Elsewhere.

Podcast production by Afi Yellow-Duke and Lilly Clark in 2021.
