Catch Up with Louise McSharry
Catch Up with Haus of Wig
Season 1, Ep. 302
•
This week I was delighted to catch up with Shaquira Knightly and Naomi Diamond, two thirds of Haus of Wig. Haus of Wig, billed as Ireland's fiercest & most formidable drag haus, are responsible for some of my favourite drag performances of recent times and they are taking over The Gate Theatre on June 21st as part of Dublin Pride. I was delighted to catch up with them about what we can expect from that night, how they came to drag, their gorgeous friendship, supporting Chappell Roan and lots more.

450. Reality Catch-Up: Housewives Anthropologist and Journalist Brian Moylan
58:24||Season 1, Ep. 450The minute I started reality Fridays I knew I wanted to talk to Brian Moylan. I've been reading Brian's Housewives recaps since I was a solo viewer with no one to talk to about what I was watching, and since then his significance in the culture has only grown. Aside from the recaps he writes for Vulture and his own Substack, he authored The Housewives: The Real Story Behind the Real Housewives, worked with Erika Jayne on her book Pretty Mess, and has presented countless panels at Bravocon and similar events. If you watch the Housewives or any Bravo shows, you will love this chat.To support the podcast and access bonus episodes, join the community on Patreon here.449. Catch Up on Music with Cian Sullivan
