Nu Art and Labor is she/hir!! We’re graced with the multitalented drag king, puppeteer, and playwriter Ashely Pignataro aka Vape Kid Jr.!!! Fresh off the nearly sold out run of her play The Cool Zone at The Brick Theater, she lends us wonderful reflections on anti-fascist, anti-imperalist, and anti-Ru Paul transsexual art. A true kindred spirit of this psycho little show, we discuss how to re-educate our police state compliant populace, neighbors, and friends. We’ve decided to save Ridgewood from its addiction to cishet normativity! We’ve decided to call out queer events like Twinks vs Dolls for being hostile to queer living! We’ve decided to yell at Zohran at his queer liberation march photo op! Shoutout to Demo for engineering this episode with expropriated institutional resources. We are being squeezed more and more every day, but will always find margins to make art in, and fire out the takes for yooooouuuuuu!!! <3

You’ve had your hot girl summer, white boy summer, and if you’re anything like us, you’ve still tossed and turned in your ac-less bedroom, dreaming of something greater. That’s why we’re partnering with the UN Gift Garden to present- Mastaba Snoopy Nonbinary Freak Summer! And kicking it off this week OK and Sarah are joined by longtime elusive keystone species of the pod Khamara and Spike for the long-awaited Dogwalking Episode. In preparation we’ve watched Masaaki Yuasa’s new rock opera Inu-Oh and Dog Soldiers, a pre-911 filmic treasure documenting the nyc dogwalking scene.
