#95 - Jinkx Monsoon Returns! Witch Queen of All Witch Queens

It’s the Witch Wave Season 6 Premiere! Drag Superstar Jinkx Monsoon (she/her/they/them) returns to celebrate her recent RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 7 win.

Jinkx Monsoon is the “internationally tolerated” cabaret icon who’s taken over the entertainment industry as an award-winning actress, acclaimed vocalist, and theatre sensation. She is the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 5, AND the recent winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars Season 7 amongst a cast of all-winning contestants, making her the first ever Queen of All Queens.

Since gaining a massive international fan base, Jinkx has toured the world performing her original cabaret shows with music partner Major Scales, including highly-acclaimed shows like The Ginger Snapped (MAC Award winner), The Vaudevillians, and their most recent production, Together Again, Again. In 2018, she partnered with best friend and sister RuPaul’s Drag Race star, BenDeLaCreme for their first major holiday tour To Jesus, Thanks for Everything! - Jinkx and DeLa. Jinkx and DeLa’s co-written holiday productions have grown into a worldwide phenomenon, spawning the 2019 tour, All I Want for Christmas is Attention, a Hulu holiday hit, The Jinkx & DeLa Holiday Special (2020), and The Return of the Jinkx & DeLa Holiday Show, LIVE! (2021) which performed for sold-out audiences across the U.S., U.K. and Canada.

You may have also seen her on stage, having won the Gregory Award for her portrayal of Hedwig in Hedwig and the Angry Inch or on film and TV such as the CBS cop drama Blue Bloods and the Netflix original AJ and the Queen. Or you may have heard her voice in such animated shows as Steven Universe and many more! Additionally, Jinkx has been the subject of two documentaries: Drag Becomes Him, and The Queens.

Jinkx also has several albums out, and a new EP called The Virgo Odyssey: Prologue.

On this episode, Jinkx discusses her historic RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars win, the ways drag has helped her embody the witch archetype, and how practicing witchcraft has led her to victory both on and off screen.

Pam also talks about the sacredness of the number 6, and answers a listener question about ways to integrate the magic of several branches of their family tree.

Our sponsors for this episode are The Living Altar, the Many Moons Lunar Planner, Mithras Candle, BetterHelp, Weiser Books and Lilith Amberly Village Witch.
