My Guest this week is NYC nightlife main stay Linda Simpson! Linda is a nightlife personality, media maven, performer, game-show hostess and drag documentarian and author! She is here to discuss her incredible coffee table book "Drag Explosion" that documents New York City's drag scene in the 1980's and 1990's through Linda's own photos. We discuss Linda's memories of that time, the evolution of the drag scene culminating in a fever pitch in the mid 1990's, the magazine she started at that time called "My Comrade," her weekly club night, "Channel 69," her friendship with Ru Paul, and I even ask her for some advice!
