New "Mattachine Meeting" w/ Lisa E. Davis 🎉

Historian & author Lisa Davis has written two books—UNDERCOVER GIRL and UNDER THE MINK (also available wherever books are sold).

Undercover Girl follows the true story of Angela Calomiris, a lesbian photographer in the Village who was undercover in the Communist Party, secretly working as an informant for the FBI. Under the Mink tells the story of drag kings & queens who worked in the mafia’s Village nightclubs in the 1940s, who Lisa got to know personally.

In tomorrow’s Mattachine Meeting, we’ll talk about how she discovered these stories!

Here's a little love letter to some of my girls, all of whom happened to have been at the same riot with GIVE 'EM HELL host Will Roscoe & Supervisor Harry Britt. We'll cover that story in episode 3 this Saturday—on the 43rd anniversary of the White Night Riots.

On my Patreon bonus podcast, you can listen to a few more points of view from that night on May 21, 1979. 🔥

Randy Wicker Radio

Here's a little Queer Serial bonus show spin-off—direct from the Randy Wicker archive! After the success of Randy's 1962 gay radio show "Live & Let Live" (covered on the podcast in S2 E11) WBAI let him talk to anyone he wanted. So, he talked to everyone! We dug up the tapes, digitized them for the archive, and now you can hear 8 bizarre interviews (of the 10 we've found so far!), each episode beginning with an interview between me & Randy about how he found these fascinating interview subjects.

Listen to the show for $3/month, and help me preserve & share more queer history at patreon.com/queerserial.
