S2 E2: Karla Marx with Bitch Sassidy

Listen on

Episode notes

This week's guest is the reason Lauren's highlighter is on point (or rather that highlighter exists in Lauren's make-up routine at all) and for that reason we know she is a freaking angel - it's Karla Marx. Karla talks about coming out as a pansexual, trans, lesbian. Her wife Bitch Sassidy who is Karla's guest joins as they both talk about coming out to someone you're in love with, and how that support and open communication, in turn, helps with your discovery and learning as well as helping to come out to others in your life.

Karla touches on the importance of the drag community in her journey, why Transgender Day of Visibility should really be on another day of the year (and may we add every day of the year for that matter) and wedding proposals at Burning Man.

Karla and Bitch are two amazing performers, two incredible humans, and both pure and utter delights. Get ready to crawl back into the closet (not metaphorically, literally), one like Narnia where you're surrounded by amazing coats and feel them give you a warm hug because that's just how this conversation feels - and what one of these guests did for quality audio.

*Lauren's publicist will neither confirm nor deny the truth behind Lauren's "I just want to be friends" statement made in this episode.
