Show Notes

Siempre Viva! This week, Peaches and Michael debate taking the potion of eternal youth as they celebrate 1992’s DEATH BECOMES HER! In addition to discussing the film’s gothic roots and classic Hollywood homages, our hosts dig into why we find Meryl and Goldie at war so damn delicious.  Joining the conversation are legendary drag icons Jinkx Monsoon and BenDeLaCreme, who not only reminisce about their time performing in Peaches’ parody stage show DRAG BECOMES HER, but dig into why this film has such a queer resonance. Then, Fayna Sanchez, star of ONYX EQUINOX and CREEPSHOW, stops by to peel back the layers of what DEATH BECOMES HER reveals about how the film industry treats women. From Isabella Rossellini's knowing camp to the disappearing Tracey Ullman, this episode has it all! Go!
